All of our brackets are hot dip galvanised and come with the M12x25mm set screws and washers required for attaching to the Domino Clamp.Use them to attach structural timber around the upper edge of the container, support an overhanging shade canopy or awning, provide a solid mounting point above the shipping container or even bolt your container to the floor.
