No. 2 Flat Angle Bracket 2x16x70 (100 Pieces)

No. 2 Flat Brace – 2 × 16 × 70 mm, Box of 100

No. 2 Flat Braces are extended‑length joining plates designed to connect components and reinforce frames and structural joints in furniture making, timber construction, and assembly work. With a 2 mm thickness, 16 mm width, and longer 70 mm length, they offer a wider grip area to boost strength and stability at joints. The flat profile fits neatly along panel edges, inside frames, and in straight connection runs. Supplied in a pack of 100, they provide a practical, cost‑effective supply for medium‑ and large‑scale projects.

Applications

• Furniture frame and panel joints requiring longer connection spans
• Intermediate reinforcement points in large cabinets, tables, and beam structures
• Wide‑surface joining of plywood, particleboard, and MDF panels
• Broad‑area reinforcement for door, hinge, and heavy load‑bearing points
• Timber frames, window joinery, and structural assembly reinforcement
• Repair of loose or broken joints in renovation work
• Interior partitioning and heavy‑duty support systems
• Custom‑built and heavy‑duty furniture manufacturing

Product Advantages

• Extended 70 mm Length: Covers a wider contact area than the No. 1 version; spreads load over more surface and strengthens the joint
• Flat Low‑Profile Design: Fits where angle brackets cannot — in narrow spaces, along edges, and inside frame sections
• Robust Construction: 2 mm steel plate; will not bend or flex under normal use and retains its rigidity long‑term
• Zinc‑Plated Finish: Rust‑resistant indoors; no discolouration, maintains a clean professional appearance
• Dual‑Hole Security: Resists rotation and slipping far better than single‑hole fixings; the joint stays locked
• Standard Dimensions: Directly compatible with widely available screws and furniture hardware
• Quick Installation: No special tools; fasten securely with matching screws in seconds
• Convenient Bulk Pack: Easy stock management for large projects; low unit cost delivers excellent value

Installation Guidelines

• Confirm the mounting surface is flat, clean, and structurally sound
• Mark the joint position; centre the brace so it makes even contact with both mating parts
• Select suitable screws: use wood screws with 3–4 mm head diameter for timber; match shank size to the 4–5 mm holes
• Finalise alignment before fully tightening; do not over‑tighten — wood may split or the plate may distort
• Install additional braces for heavier loads; use parallel rows rather than a single line
• Space multiple braces evenly to distribute weight across the joint
• Use stainless‑steel screws in damp locations such as kitchens and bathrooms
• Loosen screws gradually in a cross pattern during disassembly to avoid straining the timber

Frequently Asked Questions

How does this differ from No. 1?
No. 1 is 50 mm long; No. 2 is 70 mm. The longer version provides a wider span and more secure hold wherever joint spacing is greater or extra load distribution is needed.

What weight can it support?
Capacity depends on screw size, quantity, and base material. The longer plate spreads load over a larger area, making it more robust than shorter equivalents under the same conditions.

Will it rust?
Zinc plating provides reliable protection for indoor use. For exterior or persistently damp environments, choose the stainless‑steel version.

Are other sizes available?
Yes — lengths include 50 mm, 80 mm, and 100 mm; widths also available in 12 mm, 20 mm, and 25 mm.

Are screws included?
No — braces only. Purchase fixings separately, matched to your material type.
