1/2 in. x 5-1/2 in. x 3 in. Bearing Plate | SIM-BPRTUD5-6B

Simpson Strong-Tie's 1/2 in. x 5-1/2 in. x 3 in. Bearing Plate helps spread loads from structural fastening hardware across the supporting member, reducing concentrated bearing at the connection point. The 1/2 in. opening is sized for compatible anchor hardware, while the broad rectangular profile provides useful bearing area for foundation and framing connections. This type of structural bearing plate is commonly incorporated into wood-to-concrete connection assemblies where reliable load transfer is needed. Its simple configuration also allows straightforward installation with the appropriate anchor bolt, nut, and washer assembly.
