National Mfg N179-960 Solid Galvanized Angle 1-1/4x48 in

Product Description

The NATIONAL MFG/SPECTRUM BRANDS HHI N179-960 is a solid galvanized steel angle bar measuring 1-1/4 inches by 48 inches, sold in a 2-pack. It provides rigid structural support in construction, repair, and general fabrication applications where a strong, durable brace or reinforcement is required. The hot-dip galvanized finish delivers corrosion resistance suited for demanding job-site conditions. Contractors, carpenters, and general tradespeople use this angle stock where load-bearing support or frame reinforcement is needed. The material accepts drilling for fastener installation, making field modification straightforward without special tooling.

This solid angle is intended for construction and repair applications where a flat or corner brace is needed to add rigidity or support to a structure. Typical uses include framing reinforcement, shelf brackets, equipment mounting, and structural bracing in both residential and light commercial settings. The 48-inch length provides flexibility for cutting to fit most standard applications. Each package includes 2 pieces, reducing trips for common multi-point installations.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by carpenters, general contractors, or maintenance tradespeople using standard drill bits and appropriate fasteners for the substrate. Drilling through the galvanized finish is acceptable; welding is not recommended as heat will compromise the galvanized coating and may release harmful fumes. Secure all fasteners fully before applying load to the angle. Follow applicable local building codes for structural fastening requirements.
