Bearing Plate used with foundation anchor bolts, Simpson Strong-Tie, Hot-Dipped Galvanized 3 in W x 3 in L, 5/8 in Hole

The BP is designed to provide a greater bearing surface than standard cut-washers and help distribute the load at critical connections. This bearing plate works by transferring concentrated compressive forces between two structural elements. The BP is available with a hot-dip galvanized (HDG) coating to protect the plate from corrosion when exposed to the elements or certain types of treated lumber.

• Hot-dip galvanization (HDG) offers extra corrosion resistance for exterior and treated-wood applications
• Replaces standard cut-washers while providing a greater bearing surface
• May be ordered HDG for higher corrosion resistance
