Sheet Metal Angle Bracket 8 mm, 1.5x13x80x80 mm (100 Pieces)

No. 8 Steel Corner Brace – 1.5 × 13 × 80 × 80 mm, Box of 100

No. 8 Steel Corner Braces are widely preferred reinforcement brackets balancing strength and fit for medium‑size corner joints. With a 1.5 mm thickness, 13 mm width, and equal 80 × 80 mm arm lengths, they provide ample holding area in standard applications — neither too small nor excessively large, the ideal dimension for most furniture and frame systems. The 90° right‑angle form suits cabinet bodies, table frames, and timber construction. Supplied in boxes of 100, they offer cost‑effective stock for workshops and mass‑production.

Product Advantages

• Medium 80 × 80 mm Size: Offers broader grip area than the No. 6 model; higher load capacity while still fitting within most corners
• Narrow 13 mm Width: Does not protrude where edge thickness is limited; neat and unobtrusive — suitable behind doors and drawers
• 1.5 mm Thickness: Sufficient rigidity for light‑to‑medium‑duty use; will not bend, warp, or permanently deform
• Four‑Point Security: Two fixing points on each arm; rotation, slip, and loosening over time are minimised — the joint stays secure for years
• Zinc‑Plated Finish: Rust‑resistant indoors; no discolouration, maintains a clean, professional appearance
• Precision 90° Angle: Factory‑set angle; no on‑site adjustment needed — corners form perfectly square
• Simple Installation: No special tools; pre‑aligned holes ready for direct fitting
• Economical 100‑Pack: Ideal quantity for high‑volume workshops; low unit cost reduces overall project expenses

Installation Guidelines

• Ensure corner surfaces are flat, clean, and perfectly square to one another
• Mark the brace position; verify both arms sit flush and evenly
• Select suitable fasteners: use wood screws with 4–5 mm head diameter; choose screw length matching material thickness
• Tighten progressively in a crossing pattern; do not fully tighten until all screws are seated
• Avoid over‑tightening — material may split or the brace may distort
• For heavier loads, install symmetrically on both sides; single‑sided fitting creates imbalance
• Use stainless‑steel screws in damp locations such as kitchens and bathrooms
• Loosen screws gradually in a cross pattern during disassembly; do not force the joint apart

Frequently Asked Questions

How does this differ from No. 6 and No. 10 models?
No. 6 at 60 × 60 mm is more compact; No. 10 at 100 × 100 mm is broader. No. 8 at 80 × 80 mm strikes the best balance between strength and fit — the most widely chosen standard size.

What weight can it support?
The 1.5 mm thickness is designed for light‑to‑medium‑duty use; broader grip area gives slightly higher capacity than the No. 6 model. Thicker, wider‑gauge models are recommended for sustained heavy loads.

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

Are other sizes available?
Yes — options include 40 × 40 mm, 50 × 50 mm, 60 × 60 mm, 100 × 100 mm, and 120 × 120 mm.

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