While an exact weight capacity is not specified, the durable steel construction and dual rod diameter (10mm & 12mm) are designed to provide robust support for typical table and countertop applications.
No, screws for mounting the legs to the tabletop are not included. You will need to purchase appropriate screws separately, considering the thickness and material of your tabletop.
The legs have a height of 711mm (approximately 28 inches).
While the legs have a black finish, prolonged exposure to moisture can lead to rust. For outdoor use, it is recommended to apply a protective sealant or coating.
Select screws that are long enough to securely grip the tabletop material but short enough that they do not penetrate through the top surface. For most wood tabletops around 1 inch thick, screws between 0.75 and 1 inch are usually suitable.
The legs utilize both a 10mm and a 12mm rod diameter. The thicker 12mm rod provides the primary support, while the thinner 10mm rod adds stability and contributes to the characteristic hairpin design.
Ensure all mounting screws are fully tightened. Check that the tabletop is level and that all legs are attached at the exact same angle and position. Minor adjustments to screw tightness might be necessary.
Use a drill bit appropriate for the material of your tabletop. Start with a smaller bit for pilot holes and ensure the drill is perpendicular to the surface.
Verify that the legs themselves are not bent. Check the alignment and ensure they are mounted symmetrically on the underside of the tabletop. Adjust screw tightness on individual legs as needed.
Setup: To install the hairpin legs, align them with the desired position on the underside of your tabletop. Pre-drilling pilot holes can make attachment easier. Use appropriate screws (not included) to secure each leg firmly. Ensure all legs are mounted at consistent distances from the edges and are parallel to each other for stability.
Compatibility: These legs are compatible with a wide variety of tabletop materials including wood (solid wood, plywood, MDF), stone, and composite materials. Ensure the tabletop is sufficiently thick and sturdy to support the weight and allow for secure screw attachment.
Care: Clean the legs with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the black finish. For outdoor use, consider applying a protective sealant to prevent rust.
