The
CRL B5L Series Low Profile Square Base Shoe is a low-profile base channel engineered for glass railing systems and windscreens, available in several architectural finishes. Designed for the Wet Glaze method only, this base shoe requires correct attachment to the substrate—CRL supplies tested drilling patterns and fastener recommendations. A printed brochure with instructions, installation hints, cleaning, and refinishing techniques is available.

Product Warning:Intended for 1/2" (12 mm) or 5/8" (16 mm) glass when using the Wet Glaze system. Caution: not compatible with Wedge Dry Glaze systems. Stock length tolerance for heavy base shoes is ±3/4" (19 mm).
Most shipping weights are approximate and may vary. If exact weight is required to determine shipping costs, contact CRL Customer Service before placing your order. Product images are actual or close representations; colors may vary by monitor.
Stainless Steel Advisory:
Stainless steel resists corrosion but is not rust- or stain-proof. CRL recommends periodic maintenance to preserve the factory finish. See the Stainless Steel Disclaimer in Technical References for details.
Key differentiators: low-profile design for tight sightlines, multiple finish options, engineered attachment methods, and custom fabrication to fit unique glass railing projects. Contact CRL or request a quote to specify your Low Profile Square Base Shoe (B5LBSC) and begin your order.
