Glass support plate 25x38mm, Flat

The Strofix glass support plate (flat) is a stainless-steel shelf insert designed to sit inside a Strofix glass clamp, supporting the bottom edge of the glass panel and transferring its weight into the clamp body. Manufactured from AISI 304 with a satin finish, dimensions 38 × 25 mm (L × H). The flat designation indicates compatibility with glass clamps designed for flat mounting surfaces such as square or rectangular posts and wall plates.

The support plate is a small but essential component — it provides the bearing surface that the glass edge rests on inside the clamp, preventing the glass from sliding down under its own weight. Without it, the clamp body alone does not provide a defined support ledge. The plate is sold individually and is a consumable fitting typically ordered alongside or as a replacement for glass clamps in the Strofix range.

The satin finish matches the standard Strofix glass clamp surface, maintaining a consistent appearance if the plate edge is visible within the clamp assembly.

Use cases:

• Supporting glass panels inside Strofix flat-surface glass clamps on balustrades
• Replacing a worn or missing support plate in an existing glass clamp installation
• Stocking spare support plates for maintenance of glass railing systems
• New installations of glass clamps on flat posts or wall-mounted brackets
• Glass partition clamp assemblies on flat-profile structural elements

FAQ:

What is this support plate used for?

The support plate sits inside a Strofix glass clamp and provides a bearing ledge for the bottom edge of the glass panel. It carries the glass weight and prevents the panel from sliding down within the clamp. It is not a standalone product — it is used inside a glass clamp body.

What does "flat" mean in this context?

Flat" refers to the mounting surface type of the glass clamp this plate is designed for. Flat-surface clamps attach to square posts, rectangular profiles, or wall plates. For clamps designed for round tube posts (e.g. Ø 42.4 or Ø 48.3 mm), check the Strofix glass clamp range for the corresponding tube-mount support plates.

What are the dimensions?

The plate is 40 mm long (L), 25 mm high (H).

What material and finish is it supplied in?

AISI 304 stainless steel with a satin surface finish. These are fixed on this SKU — there is no grade or finish selection.

Is it included with a glass clamp purchase?

Check the specific glass clamp product listing to confirm whether a support plate is included or sold separately. This SKU is for the support plate only.

Is it compatible with all Strofix glass clamps?

This support plate is designed for Strofix flat-surface glass clamps. It is not compatible with tube-mount glass clamps (Ø 42.4 / Ø 48.3 mm). Verify the clamp model before ordering.

About glass support plates

A glass support plate is a small stainless-steel shelf that sits inside a glass clamp and carries the dead weight of the glass panel from its bottom edge. It transfers the vertical load from the panel to the post or mounting surface, preventing the glass from sliding down within the clamp over time.

Strofix supplies glass support plates in two configurations: a flat-base version for mounting on flat surfaces or flat-sided posts, and a curved-base version profiled for Ø42.4 mm round pipe. Both are made from AISI 304 stainless steel with a satin finish.

The correct support plate depends on whether the glass clamp is mounted on a flat surface or a round post.
