Product Description

The 50 x 50 x 30 mm corner bracket is a heavy-duty L-shaped metal connector. It is designed to reinforce 90-degree joints in timber construction, furniture making, shelving units, and general joinery.

This corner brace features leg lengths of 50 mm on each side with a 30 mm strip width. It provides a broader supporting surface than narrow brackets while offering excellent load distribution for medium to heavy-duty applications.

The 30 mm width ensures enhanced stability compared to standard narrow brackets. This makes the angle bracket ideal for reinforcing pergolas, securing shelving units, stabilising bookcases, and connecting timber beams.

Whether you are a professional tradesperson or a DIY enthusiast, this bracket delivers reliable support where additional strength is required.

What Do the Dimensions 50 x 50 x 30 mm Mean?

A common question is how to interpret the three numbers.

The 50 x 50 mm measurement refers to the length of the two perpendicular legs that attach to the wooden components. The 30 mm measurement is the width of the metal strip itself.

This configuration provides a wider profile than standard narrow brackets. It offers a larger surface area for screw placement and improved load distribution across the joint.

What Materials and Finishes Are Available?

The angle bracket is manufactured from high-quality steel with protective coatings for corrosion resistance.

The material is steel or galvanised steel. Finish options include zinc electroplated or hot-dip galvanised. Thickness is 2.0 mm standard, up to 5.0 mm for heavy-duty. Width is 30 mm. The angle is 90 degrees.

The zinc electroplated surface provides enhanced corrosion resistance with an anti-corrosion coating. This makes the corner bracket suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications, including pergolas, decking, and garden structures.

What Are the Pre-Drilled Hole Specifications?

The angle bracket features multiple pre-drilled holes and slots for secure fastening.

The hole diameter is 5 mm for nail holes. Bolt slots are available in sizes such as 6.5 mm x 30 mm and 8.5 mm x 30 mm on select models. The number of fixing points is 8 holes total, with 4 holes per leg on standard timber brackets.

The slotted design uses obround holes, making adjustments simple and easy during installation. The slotted design is particularly useful when precise alignment is required, allowing for positional adjustment before final fixing.

The countersunk recesses allow screw heads to sit flush with the bracket surface for a neat, professional finish.

What Is the Load Capacity of This Bracket?

The corner bracket is engineered for reliable holding power.

Thicker steel constructions offer superior strength for heavy-duty applications such as steel framing and fabrication work, fence and gate installations, handrails, and machinery mounting.

The standard version is suitable for timber-to-timber connections in furniture and light construction. Some models feature a stiffener that improves rigidity, particularly beneficial for larger bracket models.

What Fasteners Should Be Used with This Bracket?

While the bracket itself comes ready to install, fixings are generally sold separately.

Recommended fasteners include wood screws for timber-to-timber connections. Bolts with nuts are suitable for applications requiring additional strength using the slotted holes. Larger bolts are used for heavy-duty steel or machinery applications.

For outdoor applications, use galvanised or stainless steel screws to prevent corrosion. The multiple hole options provide flexibility for various fastener sizes and substrate materials.

How Do You Install a 50 x 50 x 30 mm Corner Bracket?

Installation of the corner brace is straightforward and requires only basic tools.
