A galvanized 4-hole open 45-degree angle is a metal angle used in construction and structural applications. The term galvanized refers to the process of applying a protective zinc coating to the metal to prevent rust and corrosion. The 4-hole open designation indicates that the angle has four holes for fasteners or bolts and is open at both ends. The 45-degree angle describes the angle of the bend in the metal, which is used to join structural components at a specific angle. These angles are used for framing, bracing, and support applications in building construction and other industrial settings.
