What Customers Are Saying

Customers praise these mending plates for exceptional strength and versatility across furniture, gates, and structural repairs. Most highlight the durable zinc coating, secure reinforcement, and multiple screw holes that allow flexible placement. Many appreciate the easy installation and compact design suitable for tight spaces. However, some report the plates are brittle and snap when bent, even slightly. A few note packaging appears misleading regarding quantity. Overall, most customers find them reliable for standard reinforcement applications, though those needing flexibility were disappointed.

They broke/wouldn't bend in a 90 angle. But, they likely weren't designed to do so.

Brittle material.

Would Not Recommend

Using as intended would probably be fine. I tried to bend it into a tiny strap and it broke easily whether heated or not.

Fragile and easy to break.

Would Not Recommend

These items are fragile and break if they are bent. We bought four, and each one broke when we tried to bend it even the slightest. Not worth the money.

Extreme poor quality

This strip is apparently cheep cast steel as it is not bendable. It immediately fractures and breaks
