Triangle Galvanized Steel Brackets (Trade series (hot-dip galvanized triangle brackets)) are specified where the joint requires carrying or reinforcing a run of pipe, tray or rail, with separate bolts or rods making the final fixing. The sections below cover the typical end-uses by industry, the size and material decisions for each, assembly practice, and the applications this fastener type is not suited to.
Typical Applications for Triangle Galvanized Steel Brackets
The most common settings where these are specified:
- General machine building: fastening covers, brackets, motors and sub-assemblies on production equipment.
- Maintenance & repair (MRO): a stocked size for servicing existing plant where the original fastener spec must be matched.
- Fabrication & metalwork: bench and on-site assembly of steel frames, enclosures and weldments.
How to Specify Triangle Galvanized Steel Brackets for Your Application
- Size: Match the size to the mating part — see the dimension table below for each option.
- Material: Choose the material and finish for the service environment — plated steel for general use, stainless for corrosion resistance.
- Environment: For damp, coastal or chemical exposure prefer A4/316 stainless or a suitable coating; indoors, plated steel or A2 is usually sufficient.
- Standard: This product is supplied to Trade series (hot-dip galvanized triangle brackets). Quoting the standard on your order guarantees interchangeable dimensions between suppliers.
Where Triangle Galvanized Steel Brackets Are Not the Right Choice
Match the fastener to the load, environment and whether the joint must be reopened; the wrong class or style is the usual cause of joint failure.
