Questions and Answers for Everbilt 72 in. x 1-1/2 in. x 14-Gauge Slotted Zinc-Plated Angle

A:  No, this will not support this type of application for the Everbilt 1-1/2 in. x 14-Gauge x 36 in. Zinc-Plated Slotted Angle and not recommended.

A:  It is steel and can be welded. However, some products are coated for preservation and the coating could dangerously volatize. Only a qualified welder should be looking at the product and welding it.

A:  The Everbilt 1-1/2 in. x 14-Gauge x 72 in. Zinc-Plated Slotted Angle can be welded but has a high complexity level for the welding process. Please consult a welding professional or visit your local Home Depot store and ask a store associate for assistance.

A:  The vertical slot is 0.344” X 0.499”, horizontal is 0.344” X 0.562”, and they are 0.377” round. The bolt size would be 5/16"-18.

A:  I made a frame for my kitchen with these angles since I wanted an industrial look for it.  I used the Everbilt 5/16" x 3/4" (18 gauge) zinc plated hex bolt (SKU 204281505), the Everbilt 5/16" (18 gauge) zinc plated hex nut (SKU 204274092) and the Everbilt 3/8" zinc plated lock washer (SKU 204276476)

A:  The vertical slot is 0.344” X 0.499”, the horizontal slot is 0.344” X 0.562”, and the round slots are 0.377” in diameter.

A:  Due to the number of variables related to this application we recommend you consult with an associate in your local Home Depot or a professional contractor for your specific use.

A:  Yes, I got them few weeks ago. I will need one more order next week.

A:  This product can be used in a variety of applications. We cannot guarantee or recommend structural design / assembly / results. Please consult a professional for best desired results.

A:  Yes,If Braced Correctly

A:  You had to say precise... The tolerances are pretty bad (definitely from side-to-side),as on mine, it depends a lot from whether the LEFT or RIGHT edge (not to be confused with measuring from the center FOLD of the "L"-bracket). Also, there are elliptical shapes and circles. The elliptical shapes are occasionally flipped on their major/minor axis. Assuming the bracket is held vertically, when elliptical shape is oriented so their major axis aligns vertically, too -- then the center line is quasi-consistent with the circles, but when elliptical shape's major axis is horizontal, it is offset from the above centerline. I'll ignore that one. So, based on limited samples from each outer edge, - from one side, the center line is 0.5113 +- 0.145 inches - from the other side, the center line is 0.6095 +- 0.145 inches

A:  The distance from the outside edge of the bar to the centerline of the slotted and round openings on the Everbilt 1-1/2 in. x 14-Gauge x 72 in. Zinc-Plated Slotted Angle are 5/8 inch on the vertical slot and 9/16 inch on the horizontal slot/round punch. Each side has a different configuration of holes and slots. On the one side where all the holes/slots are lined up vertically, the answer would be 9/16” from edge to center.

A:  The slotted angle is not tested for weight capacity as this may vary greatly depending on usage.

A:  We do not advise welding zinc coated product due to the protocols and safety measures needing to be set up to be protected from the noxious fumes that come off the zinc plating.

A:  We cannot advise on custom projects, but note that zinc will rust outdoors.

A:  I don't believe it is heavy enough to support a garden box without bending/bucking and would rust. It seems wood would be better suited for legs.
