Overview | Specifications | Applications | Finish Options | How to Measure | Order Checklist

Crafted from heavy-duty, low-to-medium carbon steel, this base plate offers excellent strength and weldability, similar in composition to materials used for industrial fasteners like ASTM A307 bolts. Its solid, flat construction ensures uniform load distribution, preventing point-loading and protecting mounting surfaces. The robust steel material provides the necessary durability for demanding industrial environments, making it a reliable component for permanent installations in both commercial and residential construction projects. The plate is supplied unfinished, allowing for custom coatings or welding directly to steel structures.

Ideal for a wide range of MRO and fabrication applications, this 5" x 5" steel base plate is essential for anchoring posts, columns, and handrails to concrete or steel foundations. Fabricators use it to create secure mounting points for machinery, while construction professionals rely on it for structural framing and support. Its versatility makes it a staple for fence contractors, welders, and maintenance teams requiring a strong, pre-fabricated solution for quick and secure installations available for same-day pickup at our Los Angeles warehouse.

Specifications

  • Material: Low-to-Medium Carbon Steel
  • Standards: Engineered for compatibility with SAE J429 / ASTM A307 fastening systems.
  • Strength/Tensile: High load-bearing capacity suitable for heavy-duty applications.
  • Dimensions: 5" x 5" (127mm x 127mm); thickness varies by stock.
  • Finish: Unfinished (Mill Finish)
  • Certifications: Mill Test Reports (MTR) available upon request.

Applications

  • Construction: Anchoring structural columns, steel beams, and support posts to concrete footings.
  • Fencing & Railing: Providing a secure base for fence posts, gate posts, and ADA-compliant handrail systems.
  • Machinery Mounting: Creating stable platforms for mounting heavy industrial equipment and machinery.
  • Fabrication: Used as a fundamental component in custom-built frames, supports, and metal structures.

Target Users

This product is essential for structural steel fabricators, general contractors, fence installers, and MRO technicians who require a reliable anchoring solution for commercial and industrial projects in the Los Angeles area.

Finish Options

This steel base plate is typically supplied with a raw, unfinished mill finish, which is ideal for welding. It can be easily prepared for various coatings, including industrial primers, DTM paints, or hot-dip galvanizing for superior corrosion resistance in outdoor applications.

How to Measure

To specify the correct base plate, confirm the Length (L) and Width (W) of the square. Also, specify the required Plate Thickness (T) based on your load requirements. Note the number, size, and pattern of the pre-drilled holes needed for your specific anchor bolts.

Example: 5" x 5" x 1/4" Thick Steel Base Plate, with four 5/8" diameter holes.
