CounterBalance Workstation Bracket, 18 x 24 Inch, Primed

Description

The CounterBalance 18×24 Workstation Bracket is a primed steel support for deeper countertops, desks, benches, shelves, and floating work surfaces. The reversible 18 by 24 inch layout provides two useful orientations, while the primed finish can receive a project-selected coating after suitable preparation.

CounterBalance 18×24 Workstation Bracket Uses

This larger format is suited to cabinetry, countertop fabrication, commercial workstations, garage storage, accessible counters, training rooms, and utility surfaces that need support without a floor leg or decorative corbel. The product guide pairs its orientations with recommended overhang ranges of 18 to 24 inches and 24 to 30 inches. Final selection depends on the surface material, depth, edge profile, bracket spacing, framing, and fastening method.

Mounting and Finish Preparation

Attach the vertical leg to load-bearing studs or equivalent structural framing. Drywall and surface finishes cannot serve as the primary attachment. Mark the framing, keep the bracket plumb and square, and select fasteners for the wall construction and design load. Before placing the work surface, check that the horizontal leg supports it evenly and that adjacent brackets share the load.

The primed finish provides a base for an on-site color choice. Clean the surface and follow the coating supplier’s preparation and compatibility instructions before applying a finish coat. Protect mounting holes from heavy coating buildup so the hardware can seat correctly. Mounting hardware is chosen separately because fastening requirements vary across wood, steel, masonry-backed, and specialty wall assemblies.

The Chemical Concepts product guide reports a load to deformation of 2,220 lbf per pair under its documented test conditions. Treat that figure as product test information. Project capacity also depends on fasteners, framing, spacing, supported-surface strength, load placement, and applicable building requirements.
