Metal Luggage Corner Protector

Edge Protection for Luggage and Equipment Cases

The Metal Luggage Corner Protector is installed on the corners of a case to reduce damage caused by impact, scratching, stacking, transportation, and daily handling. It is suitable for suitcases, flight cases, toolboxes, photography equipment cases, musical instrument cases, display cases, and vintage trunks.

The product can be made in right-angle, rounded, wraparound, or custom-shaped structures according to the case outline. Available materials include iron, stainless steel, aluminum alloy, and zinc alloy.

In addition to protecting areas that are easily damaged, the corner protector can be coordinated with edging strips, locks, clasps, hinges, and handles. This allows the protective component to become part of the complete case hardware design.

Dimensions, Radius, and Surface Options

Common side lengths range from 25 mm to 80 mm. Material thickness can range from 0.6 mm to 2.5 mm. The corner radius can be matched to the case within an R8–R35 mm range.

The product may be formed by stamping or die casting, depending on its material and structure. Installation methods can include screws, rivets, or clips.

Available surface processes include brushing, polishing, electroplating, powder coating, and electrophoresis. These options can be used for modern luggage, industrial equipment cases, or vintage trunks.

The reference salt spray time is 24–96 hours. The appropriate surface treatment should be selected according to the transportation environment, intended use, target color, and corrosion-resistance requirement. The stated range is a reference and should be confirmed for the final material and finish.

The most important selection factor is whether the protector follows the shape of the case corner. An incorrect radius may cause raised edges, installation gaps, or deformation after the fasteners are tightened.

A protector that is too shallow may not fully cover the area most likely to receive impact. Buyers should also confirm the case-wall thickness, mounting-hole positions, and available space around edging strips, wheel housings, or trolley components.

When selecting the Metal Luggage Corner Protector, it is advisable to review the part together with the actual case. Zhejiang Tongtai Lock Industry can adjust the side length, radius, hole positions, and surface appearance based on case drawings, dimensional data, or physical samples.

Samples for adjustments to an existing specification can normally be completed in approximately 2–3 days. The development period for a new structure depends on product complexity.

During volume production, the factory checks the formed outline, material thickness, mounting-hole positions, and surface appearance.

Surface-treated parts are visually inspected after returning to the factory. Process inspections are performed during production. Each finished product is checked before packaging, followed by a final sampling inspection to confirm quantity and packaging condition.

Products are packed in inner boxes and outer cartons. Stretch film can be added when pallet transportation is required to reduce the risk of loose cartons or moisture exposure during long-distance shipment.

Custom branded packaging and packaging samples are available. When custom packaging is required, the usual minimum order quantity is 1,000–2,000 pieces.
