40PCS L Bracket Corner Brace, Stainless Steel L Brackets for Shelves, Metal Corner Bracket, Small Right Angle Brackets for Wood Furniture Chair Drawer Cabinet with 80PCS Screws (0.79 x 0.79 inch)

I didn't read the reviews prior to ordering these. I saw the title mentioned stainless steel but ignored it. Based on the price and past experience I decided there is no way they're actually decent stainless steel. I've ordered so many affordably priced imported parts and materials on the internet I know how the game usually works.My distrust ended up biting me in the end. The project I need these for requires enlarging one of the holes a couple sizes. I knew that going in but I wasn't worried about it. I was banking on the fact that these would be soft steel. Surely I'd zip a drill bit through them like I do on the carbon steel ones I normally use.When they arrived, before I even removed them from the package I knew I was in trouble. I saw the tell tale white protective film coating that anyone who has worked around a metal shop recognizes. I slapped a magnet on a stack of these and sure enough, it didn't stick. I peeled back the protective coating on one of the brackets and it looked like brushed stainless steel. Oh no. . . I got exactly what I ordered. Yes. I do realize the irony in being disappointed with an honest product description. My skepticism and distrust just made things more difficult for myself.For those that don't know, drilling stainless steel can be quite challenging. It isn't rocket science but stainless steel is a very hard material. Drilling it requires special techniques, the right drill bit, time and patience. Even with a pilot hole already started these braces will work harden if you aren't careful. You have to keep everything very cool. Get the bit and work material too hot and you're done. You'll work harden the steel making it even harder and more difficult to drill. You'll chew through cheap drill bits faster than you can chuck them up. All of that makes life more miserable than it needs to be.If you don't plan on drilling out the holes any larger these are a great buy. If you plan on enlarging the holes I'd highly recommend going with a non stainless steel option if you don't need the corrosion protection of stainless.I could have returned these but I won't. It isn't amazon or the seller's fault I chose to doubt the description. I'll slowly drill them out as a painful reminder that there are still honest product descriptions and sellers out there.Overall these are great quality. They definitely seem to be actual stainless steel. These are intended for use on inside corners so the exposed side is bright, shiny brushed stainless steel. It is protected by a white plastic covering that you peel off. The back side that you normally wouldn't see is a raw stainless steel finish.

I bought these to secure the frame of my greenhouse to its pressure treated wood base. Although I used wood screws for the base and self tapping metal screws for the frame, these brackets worked perfectly. The greenhouse is secure stays stable even in the most violent wind/rain storms. They are the perfect size, reasonably priced, and they arrived quickly. I am more than happy with this purchase.

Works

Photo shows nicely finished brackets, polished. The edges of these are rough like they were stamped out bent and not finished. Hey they are cheap, you get what you pay for. They are stainless and strong. But look ,well,not so great!I have to edit my 3 stars to 4...they are polished,they had a plastic covering I did not notice- (still stamped out and not a great edge finish)

Worked perfectly for the intended purpose. I would recommend.

Well crafted L-braces with 1 screw on each joining surface; manufacturer also supplies matching screws.

Each piece was protected with a plastic cover, so they were not scratched. Impressive! The screws did not strip. The brackets were strong, and attached my table top securely. I also used them to hold down the seat cushions on my dinning room set. The cushions were never attached properly, originally, and were always loose. A perfect fix!

L shaped brackets looked just like the ad on Amazon on the top side, nice polished and smooth. But the back side looked like they punch press the part out of sheet metal and then put a 90 deg bend for the L shaped, and left the sharp edge on the back side. I had to deburr them before I could use them.
