This **300mm long** arris rail bracket is a heavy-duty, L-shaped metal plate made from **Galvanised Carbon Steel**. The galvanisation provides a **Corrosion Rating of 3** (suitable for urban and industrial areas with a low salt atmosphere), making it durable for outdoor use.
The bracket is typically **65mm wide** and features **10 pre-drilled holes** suitable for **5.0mm (Gauge 10)** screws or nails. Its primary function is to eliminate the need for **morticing** (cutting a slot) into timber fence posts, which is the traditional but labour-intensive method for connecting arris rails.
Key Uses:
**FenceRepair:** Most commonly used to quickly and effectively repair broken arris rails by securing the remaining part of the rail to the post without needing to replace the entire post.
**NewFenceConstruction:** Used for faster assembly of new close-board or feather-edge fencing by fixing the arris rails directly to the square fence posts.
Installation: The bracket is fixed to the flat side of the fence post, and the triangular arris rail then sits within the corner of the bracket and is secured using additional screws or nails.
