Types of Metal Brackets From Marlin Steel

Depending on your needs, Marlin Steel can provide custom and in-stock metal brackets in numerous types, including:

Angle Brackets

Angle brackets are L-shaped metal brackets used to reinforce joints and corners. Their versatility allows them to support various structural projects, and their strength heavily relies on the metal’s quality.

Angle Brackets

Corner Brackets

Corner brackets are designed to secure and strengthen corners, often with additional supports that connect the bracket’s legs. Commonly used in construction, furniture manufacturing, and woodworking, corner brackets enhance the stability of joints and connections.

Corner Brackets

Flat Brackets

Flat brackets are rectangular components with slots or holes for bolts/screws, designed to reinforce or join surfaces. These versatile brackets come in various sizes and thicknesses and are available in numerous metal types.

Flat Brackets

T-Brackets

T-brackets feature a distinct T-shape and offer support and reinforcement for beams, shelving units, machinery, and more. Featuring perpendicular arms, T-brackets are ideal for joining multiple components and are made from numerous metals to suit your project needs.

T-Brackets

L-Brackets

L-brackets are angle brackets featuring one shorter leg, making them ideal for use in tight spaces. They are commonly used for mounting items to horizontal surfaces, such as framing and shelving applications. When installed, the longer leg typically attaches to the wall, while the short leg attaches to the piece being supported.
