FAQs
What material are the Manfrotto 041 L Brackets made of?
They are made of durable aluminum with a black finish.
What are the dimensions of each bracket?
Each bracket is 17 cm long and 4 cm deep.
How many brackets are included in a set?
A set includes two L brackets.
Are screws and wall anchors included?
No, screws and wall anchors are not included and must be purchased separately based on your wall type and the weight you intend to support.
What is the weight capacity of these brackets?
The weight capacity depends on the installation and the strength of the wall and fixings used. Ensure appropriate fixings are used for the load intended.
Can these brackets be used for outdoor shelving?
While aluminum is corrosion-resistant, it is recommended to use them in protected outdoor environments to preserve the finish and integrity over time.
Troubleshooting
Brackets do not seem secure
Ensure you are using the correct type and size of screws and wall anchors for your wall material. Verify the wall surface is structurally sound and can bear the weight.
Shelf is not level
Adjust the positioning of the L brackets on the wall. Use a spirit level to ensure both brackets are at the same height before attaching the shelf.
Difficulty attaching shelf to bracket
Ensure the shelf has a flat surface that aligns properly with the bracket. You may need to drill pilot holes in the shelf to securely attach it to the bracket.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Manfrotto 041 L Brackets require mounting to a wall or suitable surface using appropriate screws and wall anchors (not included). Ensure the mounting surface is capable of supporting the intended load. Position the brackets to achieve the desired shelf placement and levelness before securing.
Compatibility: These brackets are compatible with most standard shelving materials, including wood, MDF, and certain plastics, provided the shelf has a flat edge for the bracket to rest upon. The 17cm x 4cm size is ideal for shelves up to this depth.
Care: To maintain the appearance and integrity of the brackets, clean them with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the black finish. Periodically check the mounting screws to ensure they remain secure.
