Selected User Reviews For 70" Long x 3" Thick Super Duty Steel Hidden Mantel Hardware - for 72 to 81 inch Mantel - Manufactured in USA
This mounting bracket was used to install a 10" x 10" x 6 ft re-inforced concrete slab. Barn wood with a purpose. The estimated weight was 160 pounds, and the bracket was designed to hold 200 pounds. During installation, the bracket remained firm and showed no signs of fatigue or strain, even with the mantle poised on the rods' ends. To accommodate stud locations, there are plenty of countersunk screw provisions (I added extra blockers just in case). It comes with instructions for drilling the mantle holes, but don't underestimate how difficult it is to drill five straight 7" deep holes! My auger bit turned out to be a bad choice, and I ended up with a 1. A spade bit with a diameter of 25 millimeters (larger than the 1. 25 millimeters) was used. It is recommended that the diameter be 125. Overall, I strongly advise you to purchase this bracket!.
Extremely powerful. My contractor stated that aligning the exact hole in my mantle with these metal prongs was a bit of a pain, but once he did, it is incredibly strong. I would recommend it and purchase it again if the need arises. Just make sure you have the proper equipment.
This was used to build a log mantel for a fireplace. This fit our needs perfectly. Arrived on time.
as stated in the description I would strongly suggest it. purchased to support a solid wood mantle that was extremely heavy. The product was exactly as described. The package arrived much sooner than expected.
Strong but not overbearing.
The welds were able to withstand the test of time. It needs to be fixed.
