No: 27 Flat Angle Bracket 2x40x100 mm (100 Pieces)

No. 27 Flat Brace – 2 × 40 × 100 mm, Box of 100

No. 27 Flat Braces are wide‑format heavy‑duty joining plates engineered to create high‑strength, broad‑surface connections in furniture manufacturing, timber construction, and heavy‑load assembly work. With a 2 mm thickness, generous 40 mm width, and 100 mm length, they spread force over a large contact area to deliver exceptional rigidity — especially when joining thick, heavy components. The flat profile installs cleanly along panel edges, at beam joints, and as reinforcement for frames. Supplied in a pack of 100, they offer cost‑effective stock management for large‑scale projects and high‑volume workshops.

Applications

• Joints for thick timber beams and large furniture frames
• Reinforcement for heavy table tops, cabinet bodies, and storage units
• Wide‑surface joining of full‑size plywood, particleboard, and MDF panels
• Heavy‑duty strengthening of timber window, door, and joinery frames
• Interior partition walls and structural support systems
• Primary structural connections in timber homes and prefabricated buildings
• Repair of weakened or broken large‑area joints during renovation
• Heavy‑duty and custom‑built furniture production

Product Advantages

• 40 mm Wide Body: Far broader contact area than 16 mm standard braces; distributes load across multiple points and guards against wood splitting or tearing
• 100 mm Extended Length: Spans between widely separated fixing points; eliminates flexing, wobble, and play in long‑span joints
• Four‑Hole Security: Two‑row fixing enabled by the extra width; rotation, slip, and loosening are virtually eliminated — the joint stays permanently firm
• Indestructible Build: 2 mm steel plate; will not bend, buckle, or deform even under sustained heavy loads
• Zinc‑Plated Finish: Rust‑resistant indoors; no tarnishing, maintains a neat, professional appearance
• Dual Functionality: Serves as both connector and reinforcement in one piece — no separate components required
• Straightforward Installation: No special tools; secure with correctly sized screws in seconds
• Economical Bulk Pack: Convenient stock supply for large contracts; low unit cost delivers outstanding value

Installation Guidelines

• Ensure the mounting surface is flat, clean, and structurally sound
• Mark the joint location; centre the brace so it bears evenly on both mating parts
• Select suitable screws: use wood screws with 4–5 mm head diameter; match shank to the 5 mm holes
• Tighten gradually in a crossing pattern; do not fully tighten until all screws are seated
• Avoid over‑tightening — this may split the timber or distort the plate
• Install additional braces for heavier loads; use parallel rows rather than a single line
• Use stainless‑steel screws in persistently 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 standard flat braces?
Even at matching lengths, the 40 mm width allows four screws in two rows instead of two; grip area and load capacity are substantially higher. It is the preferred choice for large, heavy structures.

What weight can it support?
With four fixing points, it carries roughly twice the load of narrow‑width braces of the same thickness. Safe for heavy‑duty use when mounted in sound material.

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

Are other sizes available?
Yes — lengths include 60 mm, 80 mm, and 120 mm; widths also offered in 20 mm, 25 mm, 30 mm, and 50 mm.

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