Description
Model: APVB — Designed for S4S or Rough Sawn (RS) lumber in nominal 8×8 (APVB88) size. Not compatible with Timber Build’s TR Finish.
The Outdoor Accents® Avant Collection™ APVB88 adjustable post base secures 8×8 posts or columns to concrete surfaces in pergolas, patio covers, decks, and other top-supported structures. Constructed from heavy-duty 14 and 12-ga ZMAX®-galvanized steel with a sleek black powder-coat finish, it provides superior corrosion resistance and a clean, contemporary aesthetic.
The APVB88 installs easily with Outdoor Accents structural wood screws (SDWS22312DBB) and patented hex-head washers (STN22) — the only approved fastener system for Outdoor Accents connectors. Its slotted base allows for precise lateral adjustment, and the built-in 1″ standoff elevates post ends above moisture-prone surfaces to help prevent wood rot.
Manufacturing Notes: Part of the Simpson Strong-Tie Outdoor Accents Avant Collection™, the APVB post base is engineered for long-term durability and aesthetic appeal. ZMAX® galvanization and black powder-coat finish ensure lasting performance in outdoor environments.
