Types and Key Specifications

Length options typically include 1m, 2m, and 3m sticks (check each product for available SKUs). Look for pre-cut or custom lengths to minimise on-site cutting and waste for institutional projects. Most slotted angle iron is designed for M6 or M8 bolting; confirm with product datasheets or ask our technical desk for advice.

How to Select and Order Online

1. Measure required post height and load: Calculate maximum expected load in kg, shelf/frame spacing, and determine optimal post length.
2. Choose your angle profile: L-angle for simple frames, slotted for tool-free shelf adjustability, heavy-duty for machinery and lab benches.
3. Check finish/material: Galvanised steel for corrosion resistance (good for labs and outdoors), mild steel for dry or indoor builds, powder coat for esthetics or custom colour coding.
4. Add compatible hardware: Most kits require bolts, nuts, and washers suitable for chosen slot/punch aperture (typically M6/M8).
5. Confirm stock and branch pickup: Use our live stock checks, and select your preferred branch in Samrand, Cape Town, or Pretoria for local collection or have your order delivered countrywide.

Assembly & Compatibility Guidance

Most angle iron corner post assemblies follow a simple frame-up structure using:

• Corner posts (uprights) cut to desired height
• Horizontal runners/bracing (angle or flat bar)
• Bolt sets or rivets to fasten joints (avoid self-tapping screws in load-bearing applications)
• Optional footplates or anti-slip glides for floor mounting

Many local electronics makers and small industry clients use angle iron posts as bases for shelving instrument racks, 3D printer stands, or heavy test equipment enclosures. For CAD-prototyping or student builds, download our sample frame drawings or request a cut-list from technical at any Communica branch.

Frequently Paired Accessories

• Shelving panels (ply, steel mesh, sheet aluminium)
• M6/M8 bolts/nuts/flat washers (zinc-plated for corrosion)
• Plastic end caps for sharp corner protection
• Adjustable feet/levelling pads
