JI3-18RDTP12BH table base
JI3-18RDTP12BH table base anchors compact bar tables with a clean round profile. The domed plate sits low for easy stool tuck. Five contact points keep the base planted during rush. Guests approach from any side without foot traps. Crews assemble the kit quickly with standard tools. Adjustable glides fine tune level on tile, wood, or concrete. The textured black finish hides scuffs and wipes clean. Managers get calm tables and fewer maintenance calls.
At a Glance
Bar height ~40.5″. 18″ round footprint. TP12 spider. 3″ steel column. Optional footring on BHFR. Adjustable glides. Textured black powder coat.
What It Is
This round bar-height base belongs to the JI Round Series. The 18 inch plate concentrates mass in a compact circle. That footprint supports small bar tops while saving aisle space. Five-point contact improves traction on uneven floors. A domed profile clears toes and bags beneath the overhang. The BHFR sibling adds a footring for comfort at tall seating. For larger square dining tops, many teams step up to JI3-30TP12 to gain reach. Nearby round zones can scale footprint with JI4-28RDTP17 while keeping a single-post look. Glides adjust independently to correct micro height changes.
Key Specs
Overall height measures about forty point five inches. The cast-iron plate spans eighteen inches in diameter. A 3 inch round steel column ties the system together. A 4 inch column upgrade increases stiffness for dense tops. The TP12 cast-iron spider measures about thirteen inches. Slots accept common fastener patterns across many tops. Adjustable plastic glides sit under the plate perimeter. Through bolts and threadlocker secure every joint. The textured black finish masks marks between turns. When floors fight you, add a self leveling aid like CT2018 or CT3018. Units ship flat for safe handling and staging.
Installation Reminder
Confirm pilot sizes and screw length before mounting. Level all glides first. Torque bolts in a star pattern, then recheck after week one.
Recommended Top Sizes
Bar charts list one base for many twenty four inch rounds. One base also supports select twenty four inch squares. Keep tops light to maintain a safe margin. Laminates and thin solid woods balance well here. Stone or thick slabs add leverage and stress. In those cases, upgrade the column or footprint size. Larger rounds often need twenty two or twenty eight inch plates. Long rectangles usually require paired bases on center lines. Keep spacing even to reduce bounce across spans. Test rim steadiness before floor release. Train teams to verify level during resets.
Options, Siblings, and Variants
Choose the BHFR model when guests need foot support. The footring improves posture and reduces fatigue. Step to a 4 inch column for heavy tops. Consider a TP17 spider when screw reach must grow. For bar lanes with matching style, review JI3-22TP12BH/22TP12BHFR to keep finishes aligned. Designers often blend this round base with JI4-28RDTP17 to support larger rounds. Mixed rooms stay cohesive while each zone gains the right footprint.
Design Insight
Center the post on stool lanes, not only table edges. Mark footring height with real stools. Check purse hooks for toe clearance.
Why Specify This Base
Compact stability defines this model. The small circle saves floor while keeping tables calm. Guests find clear approach from any side. Staff move trays without clipping corners or legs. Five-point contact resists dips and grout lines. The column controls deflection at bar height. Glides deliver micro corrections in seconds. The finish survives wipes and sanitizer use. Bolt joints stay tight through heavy cycles. Field calls drop when tables stay quiet. Over time, those gains protect labor and reviews. Rooms feel steady, and turns flow smoother.
Featured Answer
When should I specify the 18″ round bar base?
Use it for twenty four inch rounds or small squares. Pick the footring for comfort. Upgrade column or footprint for heavier tops.
Why Teams Choose TimeWorn
We align plate maps, fasteners, and setbacks before production. Samples confirm sheen, texture, and cleaner response. Crates include labeled diagrams for quick staging. Hardware packs match each room and table set. Schedules include steady tracking and contact windows. Field guides show leveling and torque sequences. Multi-site rollouts reuse the same patterns and parts. Teams learn once and move faster across properties. Punch lists shrink because fits land right. Your staff spends time with guests, not repairs.
Pro Tip
Keep spare glides at every station. Swap worn feet during resets. Quick fixes stop wobble before guests notice.
Why the JI Round Platform Wins
Geometry and mass work together here. The dome places iron low for better stability. Five feet contact the floor for consistent grip. Columns manage flex at tall height. Wide spiders distribute screws across strong fibers. Glides handle small floor shifts without shims. Bolt joints lock with threadlocker for hold. Shared parts reduce training time for teams. Designers keep one look across sizes and heights. Operators scale confidently with fewer surprises and calls.
