## Questions & Answers

**Q: I am installing 8' 4x4 post to concrete. Is the height going to be an issue for this anchor?**
A: Should be ok.  I've installed 8 ft tall 4x4 fence posts on top of railroad ties (actually bridge timber) using these.  But it really depends on what you're building.  If this is a fence where you'll have lateral support with 2x4 or other material, then you're ok.

**Q: Can I use this at the top of a 4x4 to connect a 4x4 going across (making a letter T)?**
A: Actually Corran I think this would be a little too much overkill, as this bracket is super heavy-duty. Lowe's has a Simpson Strong-Tie item # 51759 that would work better.

**Q: height  from the base to top on the simpson strong tie fpbb44**
A: I measured the strong tie and from base to top it was 5 1/2 inches.

**Q: What is the. Height of the fpbb44 anchor**
A: I use a 1/2 inch by 6 inch hot dipped galvanized anchor bolt

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by A***R on 19 May 2021*

I used these to repair two fence posts who’s bracket had broken. I simple removed most of old bracket it’s a grinder then mounted this into concrete. I had 10 sonnet tube fence supports and there was lots of room to position them. Once fence was in posts were more sturdy than original bracket. Will definitely get more when needed.
