ABS70G-R8 - Adjustable Bearer Support - Box of 8
Adjustable Bearer Support (ABS) Information
Setting up a levelling post and bearers for the sub-structure of your deck can be tedious and time consuming. But it’s one of those things that just has to be right.
The clever people from KlevaKlip have now released the Adjustable Bearer Support – aimed at the section of the market where decks are typically from 300 to 600mm off the ground.
Built heavy duty and fully hot dip galvanised, with an adjustment for “bottom of bearer” height of 160mm to 290mm, the Adjustable Bearer Support will save time and make your job so much easier. Simply adjust the bearer support height and add to your combined bearer and joist depth, plus your decking board thickness to give your correct height off the ground.

When using 45 or 50mm bearers, in order to achieve the above load areas, the bearer must be packed out from to “L-bracket” to ensure the centre of the bearer is directly above the centre of the bearer support column.
Note – the above table should be read in conjunction with your Bearer span table. In many instances, the frequency of your bearer supports will be governed by the span capacity of the bearer itself, and not the actual Adjustable Bearer Support.
