For any awning it is important that the bracket can support the weight of the awning in off-road conditions and when in use, especially the larger 270 degree awnings. The Heavy Duty L Bracket Long has been designed to suit The Bush Company awnings when fitted to load bars or a roof rack. The bottom arm which attaches to the load bar or roof-rack is 310mm (12 ¹³/₆₄”) long and 81mm (3 ³/₁₆”) wide with a range of holes and slot options for attachment, this longer arm is ideal for fitment to roof racks with wider slats where the attachment points are further apart such as a Rhino Pioneer Platform Rack. The vertical arm of the brackets can be configured in three positions enabling the height above the rack to be adjusted from either 225mm (8 ⁵⁵/₆₄”), 165mm (6 ¹/₂”) or 105mm (4 ⁹/₆₄”).
The bracket is made from stainless steel and has been CNC laser cut and folded and finished in a durable powder coat finish. The brackets have heavy duty gussets in the corner to withstand the rigours of off-road travel, when fitted the gusset of the bracket must be facing upwards and not be installed further out than the edge of the rack. The brackets are supplied with a complete set of stainless steel pan head and hex bolts and nyloc nuts for assembly.
