The new B5G Series Square Base Shoe, designed for use with CRL’s patented TAPER-LOC® Dry Glazed Railing System, offers the same features and performance of our popular B5S Series, but it's formed using less metal, making it 20% lighter.  The B5G's design make it less expensive than the B5S Series, and because of it’s lighter weight it also saves on shipping costs.
