A Perry SleeperSecure Sleeper Base Anchor Bracket - 75mm - Silver

This bracket is ideal for use with oak timbers. Its A2/304 Grade Stainless Steel construction prevents corrosion and the black staining that can occur due to the acidic tannins present in oak.

The bracket is designed to accommodate wooden posts of either 3x3" (75mm) or 4x4" (100mm) dimensions.

The bracket is designed to be set directly into concrete. You will need to dig a hole, position the bracket, pour concrete, and allow it to cure before attaching your timber post.

The product description does not specify if fixings for the timber post are included. You will likely need to purchase appropriate screws or bolts separately for attaching the post to the bracket.

The bracket itself measures 75mm (3") x 75mm (3"), with a height of 100mm (4"). The anchoring bar is 220mm long.

Yes, the bracket is constructed from steel with a weather-resistant epoxy brown finish, designed for durability in outdoor conditions.

While designed for posts and sleepers in projects like pergolas, car-ports, and garages, its secure anchoring capability could potentially be adapted for other stable base requirements, provided the dimensions are suitable.

This is best avoided by using a spirit level during installation before the concrete sets. If the concrete has already cured, you may need to carefully chip away concrete and re-pour, or consider using shims if the deviation is minor and the post attachment can compensate.

Ensure you are using appropriate screws or bolts designed for outdoor timber construction. Verify that the post is correctly sized for the bracket (75mm or 100mm) and that the pre-drilled holes on the bracket align with your chosen fixing points on the post.

While rare for A2/304 stainless steel, if minor surface rust appears, it can often be removed with a stainless steel cleaner. Ensure no iron particles from other tools have contaminated the surface during installation. If staining occurs on oak, it may indicate a lower grade of steel or contamination.
