B-LINE B281FLHDG – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Which strut channel does the B-Line B281FLHDG post base fit?
The B281FLHDG rectangular post base fits B-Line channel types B22A, B and C. If the strut you are standing up is a different B-Line profile, this base is not the right fitting for it.
2) Is the B-Line B281FLHDG post base suitable for outdoor or wet locations?
It is steel with a hot-dipped galvanized finish, which is the finish normally specified for exterior, rooftop and damp indoor runs where plain or electro-plated fittings would rust at the base. Since a post base sits on the deck or slab where water collects, the hot-dip coating is the reason to pick this version over a plain finish.
3) What does flush to side mean on a B-Line rectangular post base?
Flush to side means the strut sits off to one edge of the base plate rather than centered on it, so one face of the post lines up with the edge of the base. That matters when you are setting a post tight against a curb, wall or equipment pad and need the channel face, not the plate, to be the reference line. Center-mount bases are the alternative when the post needs to be in the middle of the footprint.
4) What is the footprint of the B281FLHDG post base?
The B281FLHDG measures 8 inches length/depth, 3 inches width and 3.5 inches height, and weighs 3.2 lb. Use the 8 by 3 inch footprint when you are laying out anchor spacing on a slab or checking clearance against a curb.
5) Do anchors and bolts come with the B-Line B281FLHDG post base?
The B281FLHDG is supplied as the post base fitting only. Concrete anchors or deck fasteners to secure the base, and the channel nuts and bolts to attach the strut post, are ordered separately and sized to your substrate. For an exterior install, match the fastener finish to the hot-dipped galvanized base so you do not set up dissimilar-metal corrosion at the deck.
