The Amherst Inset Demi-Top Post Cap has a simple scallop base that slides over the deck post.

As with all Acorn post caps, the Amherst is made from a single piece of cedar, or pressure-treated pine, which means there are no joints or glued pieces to come apart. In addition, the 3/8 inch inset base protects the post end grain for greater longevity. Choose from post cap sizes 3-5/8 inch, 5-5/8 inch, or 3-5/8 inch x 5-5/8 inch. AcornWood Post Caps are ready to be treated with your choice of wood oil.

Note: Post caps must be treated, or cracking/splitting/warping can occur. Wood oil should be used on all surfaces of the cap.
