B-LINE B279SQSS6 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size footprint does the B-Line B279SQSS6 post base cover?
The B279SQSS6 square post base measures 6 inches by 6 inches with a height of 1.62 inches, so it needs a 6 inch square area of clear concrete or steel to sit flat. Plan hold-down anchors inside that 6 x 6 footprint.
2) Is the B279SQSS6 post base suitable for outdoor or washdown areas?
It is a Type 316 stainless steel post base, which is the grade specified for coastal, chemical and washdown exposure where standard plated steel would corrode. That makes it a reasonable pick for rooftop, marine-air, water treatment and food processing strut supports.
3) What does "centered" mean on a B-Line square post base?
Centered means the strut or post mounts in the middle of the 6 x 6 inch plate, so load is carried evenly on all four sides rather than offset toward one edge. If you need the post tight to a wall or curb edge, a centered base is the wrong choice and you want an offset or edge-mount base instead.
4) Does the B279SQSS6 come with anchor bolts or mounting hardware?
No hardware is included in the B279SQSS6 order. It ships as the stainless post base only, at 3.14 lb, so order your concrete anchors or through-bolts and any strut-to-base fasteners separately, and match them in 316 stainless if the base is going somewhere corrosive.
5) What is the exact part number to order this Eaton B-Line stainless square post base?
Order it as B-Line B279SQSS6, part of the Eaton B-Line strut fittings and accessories line. The SS6 suffix identifies the Type 316 stainless version, so do not substitute a plain B279SQ if the spec calls for 316.
6) Will the B279SQSS6 base raise my strut off the slab?
The base stands 1.62 inches tall, so the bottom of the strut or post sits that far above the mounting surface. That clearance helps keep the strut end out of standing water on a roof or wash-down floor, but account for it when you are working to a fixed finished height.
