This plate is 136mm by 100mm and 10mm thick, powder coated black RAL 9005, and drilled with nine holes: four 12mm holes and four 16mm stepped holes around the edge, and a 14mm hole in the centre. It attaches to the foot of the post and holds it upright on the base. The price shown is for one plate, with a minimum order of 5, so you can set several posts in one order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImportant:\u003c\/strong\u003e this plate is black.
