The material of a corbel impacts its strength, appearance, and suitability for different environments. Wood is a classic choice, offering warmth and the ability to stain or paint for a custom look, as seen in products like the Bar Bracket Wood Corbel 3" W x 9" D x 9" H Maple. Metal components or mounting systems, such as the 4" x 1" x 2-1/2" Corbel Mount System Galvanized, provide superior load-bearing capabilities and durability. Some corbels, like the 10" Scalloped Overhang Bar Bracket Corbel, combine solid wood with reinforced steel for the best of both worlds. With options in maple, alder, and galvanized or powder-coated steel, you can choose the right material for your specific structural and design needs.
