Another Bracket Search

[js415]

You folks helped me find the other bracket I was searching for, so I figured I would ask for some help again.

I have been all over Camping World, Tweetys, PPL, and various other trailer parts websites, and for the life of me, I can not find this bracket.

I either am searching in the wrong place, or looking for the wrong terms.

Does anybody here have any idea the correct name of this type bracket and where/if I can find one somewhere?

Thanks,

Jerry

Thanks for the info.

So now I know it's called a Footmans Loop. I still can not find one anywhere pre-made, that I can go ahead and order.

I just went ahead and bought a small splicing bracket and made one myself.

Thanks all,

yeh that's what I thought it was

Grainger or Mc Master Carr would be my choice to look.

That is a Footman Loop used for securing items by use of a strap. Offroad stores Marine stores. Home Depot has 'em for $7(Hillman) I got my last ones at TSC for less than a buck apiece. Take a photo with you a lot of young kids have no idea. JM2¢ YMMV

It's just a piece of flat-bar, bent and then shaped on a grinder and drilled out. Very simple to make ... as said above, any fabrication shop can make on in minutes, if you can't do it yourself.

A good steel fabrication shop could build you one if you had one for them to look at and measure....Should be reasonable cost.

It's the bottom support bracket that is mounted to the side of a popup trailer.

A small piece of 3/4" pipe slides in it to help hold up an outside table.

The pipe is flattened on each end and slide between the bracket and trailer, and bracket and table top, to hold it in place and support it in place.

The bracket on the trailer is fine. I made her a second table top, and I need another bracket to mount to the bottom of it.

Thanks,
