Starpack 38mm Zinc Plated Corner Brackets – Reliable Mid-Size Joint Reinforcement
The Starpack Corner Brace ZP 38mm offers the perfect balance of strength and compact design. While smaller brackets may lack the leverage for larger units and 50mm braces may be too bulky for some applications, the 38mm “standard” size is the preferred choice for most UK furniture assembly and repair tasks. At ECO Heat Shop, we provide the essential hardware needed to reinforce your home’s structural elements, from custom shelving to cabinetry repairs.
Constructed from high-grade steel, these 38mm braces provide essential lateral stability to prevent “racking”—the tendency for furniture to lean or wobble under weight. The zinc plating ensures these fixings remain aesthetically clean and free from rust, making them ideal for high-humidity areas like laundry rooms and kitchens.
Key Features & Benefits
- All-Purpose Reinforcement: Ideally suited for securing kitchen carcasses to walls, reinforcing wardrobe corners, or stabilizing bed slats and frames.
- Corrosion-Resistant Coating: The bright zinc plating (ZP) provides a hard-wearing barrier against atmospheric moisture, ensuring the steel remains structurally sound for years.
- Precision-Engineered L-Shape: Maintains a true 90-degree angle, ensuring your furniture remains square and perfectly aligned during and after assembly.
- Easy Installation: Features multiple pre-drilled countersunk holes per side, distributing the load across several screws for a more secure anchoring point.
- Discrete Professional Finish: Easily hidden behind trim or inside cabinets while providing significant structural support.

ECO Heat Shop Maintenance Tip: When repairing old furniture that has become loose, remove the old screws, apply a small amount of wood glue to the joint, and then install the 38mm corner brace. The combination of adhesive and mechanical bracing creates a repair that is often stronger than the original build.
