What column type/length should I use for storing a Bcrypt hashed password in a Database?

by

I want to store a hashed password (using BCrypt) in a database. What would be a good type for this, and which would be the correct length? Are passwords hashed with BCrypt always of same length?

EDIT

Example hash:

$2a$10$KssILxWNR6k62B7yiX0GAe2Q7wwHlrzhF3LqtVvpyvHZf0MwvNfVu

After hashing some passwords, it seems that BCrypt always generates 60 character hashes.

EDIT 2

Sorry for not mentioning the implementation. I am using jBCrypt.
