The Insta-Footing replaces then need to install an isolated concrete footing and is much faster, easier and more affordable to install - saving you both time and money! The Insta-Footing is used when you need to support a point/post load to the foundation floor slab. 

Our Carbon Fiber Insta-Footing plates now provide a lighter and even more affordable alternative to our steel Insta-Footing plates!

The Insta-Footing comes with a universal post connector that can connect to a 4”x4”, 4”x6”, 6”x6”, or steel lally column post. The 12”x12”x¾” thick plate can support a load up to 9,500# (on 3.5” thick concrete) or up to 3000# on soil. The Insta-Footing comes with predrilled holes to attach the plate to a concrete floor. The plates are ~7/8” thick and 12”x12” square. The core material is ¾” ground contact pressure treated plywood, with bi-directional, carbon fiber applied to both sides which resists bending and equally distributes the load to the concrete slab below. The edges are sealed with FlexSeal. If the product is placed on a 4” concrete slab, it can replace a concrete footing up to 20”x20” square since the loads travels through the concrete at a 45-degree angle.
