Constructed from 14-gauge galvanized steel, the EPB44A delivers corrosion resistance suited to a range of environmental exposures. A built-in 1-inch stand-off keeps the post end clear of the bearing surface, reducing moisture contact and meeting code requirements for elevated post connections. This hardware is installed by structural framers, general contractors, and licensed construction crews working to applicable building codes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe EPB44A is used in both residential and light commercial construction where posts must be anchored to concrete piers, footings, or deck framing. Typical applications include decks, pergolas, elevated platforms, and structural columns requiring a secure base connection with defined uplift capacity. The 1-inch stand-off feature makes this base particularly well suited to exterior installations where ground-level moisture is a concern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e14-gauge galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in interior and exterior environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-inch code-compliant stand-off keeps post end elevated from the bearing surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDesigned for 4x4 nominal lumber posts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSuitable for residential and commercial structural applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold in packages of 10 units per package quantity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style structural connector for use with 4x4 nominal lumber posts in elevated post base applications on concrete or wood framing substrates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by qualified framers or contractors in accordance with local building codes and the applicable residential or commercial building standard. Fasten the post base to the substrate using fasteners appropriate for the base material before seating the post. Inspect anchor bolt placement and embedment depth prior to final post installation. Do not modify the base geometry or omit required fasteners, as this may compromise rated load performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: 14-gauge galvanized steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePost Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4x4 nominal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStand-Off Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10 per package\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: EA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SIMPSON STRONG TIE\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: EPB44A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SIMPSON STRONG-TIE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51524709220658,"sku":"EPB44A","price":180.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/37e9fbf63fe51dd364139ac8fa641b74.jpg?v=1785456018","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/simpson-strong-tie-epb44a-elevated-post-base-4x4","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
