Multi-purpose Simpson Strong-tie Simpson Strong-tie Bp 1/2-3 Bearing Plate, 3 In L, 3 In W, 3 Ga Gauge, Steel Up To 85% Off [HXQbhTzi]

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.
