In the construction, elevator installation, mechanical equipment and other industries, metal brackets are indispensable structural parts. Choosing the right metal bracket can not only improve the installation stability, but also improve the durability of the overall project. Here are a few key factors to help you make the right choice.
1. Determine the usage scenario
● Construction industry: need to consider load-bearing capacity and corrosion resistance, such as galvanized steel or stainless steel brackets.
● Elevator installation: require high precision and high strength, carbon steel or stainless steel fixed brackets are recommended.
● Mechanical equipment: need to pay attention to wear resistance and rigidity, choose cold-rolled steel or carbon steel brackets.
2. Choose the right material
● Stainless steel: corrosion-resistant, high strength, suitable for outdoor or humid environments.
● Carbon steel: low cost, high strength, suitable for heavy structures.
● Aluminum alloy: light and corrosion-resistant, suitable for weight-sensitive applications.
● Galvanized steel: excellent rust resistance, suitable for construction and pipeline brackets.
3. Consider load-bearing and structural design
● Understand the maximum load-bearing range of the bracket to ensure that it can support the equipment or structure.
● Select the appropriate hole design according to the installation method (welding, bolt connection).
4. Surface treatment process
● Hot-dip galvanizing: excellent anti-corrosion performance, suitable for outdoor environment.
● Electrophoretic coating: uniform coating, improved anti-oxidation ability, suitable for high-end applications.
● Spraying or plastic spraying: add a protective layer to improve aesthetics.
5. Customized requirements
● If the standard model cannot meet the needs, you can choose a customized bracket, including size, shape, hole position, etc., to match the specific project.
6. Supplier selection
● Choose an experienced manufacturer to ensure production accuracy and quality control.
● Understand the factory's production capabilities, such as CNC cutting, bending, welding and other processes.
