Fill the hole half full with epoxy. Insert the EPB44T and adjust to the desired height. The threaded rod shall be embedded a minimum of 2 ". To adjust after the epoxy cures, drill a hole in the center of the post and rotate the post base up or down to the desired height. EPB44PHDG Drill a diameter hole 4" deep minimum and fill the hole halfway with SET epoxy or drill a diameter hole 4" deep minimum and fill the hole halfway with AT adhesive. Insert the EPB44PHDG and adjust to the desired height. The threaded rod shall be embedded a minimum of 3 ". Minimum sidecover is 3" from the center of the threaded rod for both products.
