Capitol stud mounted floating bracket uses an ultra-slim, stud-install design so the support hides behind drywall, creating floating shelves, countertops, benches, and vanities with no exposed metal. The 10 inch length bracket mounts along the side of standard wall studs, so the structure ties directly into framing rather than relying on drywall. Its minimal profile arm extends cleanly into the room, allowing you to build floating installations while keeping the support fully concealed. The bracket is engineered for invisible strength and ease of installation, so you can focus on layout and finish work instead of visible hardware. Because the mounting style disappears completely behind drywall, the finished surface reads as a true floating element while still relying on stud-mounted steel for strength.
This Capitol floating shelf bracket is designed to mount along the side of standard wall studs, so it integrates naturally into framed walls on typical projects. The 10 inch length arm extends into the room, matching common shelf and surface depths where concealed support is required. When used for floating shelves, the arms are intended to align with the shelf depth so material rests properly over the support. For countertop use, the bracket is intended to align with wall studs and be spaced no more than 24 inches apart to suit the weight of the surface. The manufacturer advises against using shelf depth farther than 4 inches beyond the end of the support arm, which keeps leverage in a range appropriate for the bracket design.
The Capitol stud mounted floating bracket is part of the floating shelves and concealed brackets class, so it fits best in projects calling for hidden structural support. Its design allows mounting along the side of standard wall studs, which aligns with typical residential and light commercial framing layouts. In floating shelf applications, the extended arm is intended to match the shelf depth so the board sits fully supported along the hidden steel. For floating vanities and benches, the same arm extension projects into the room, giving a concealed spine beneath cabinetry or seating. In countertop work, the bracket is designed to be aligned with studs and spaced no more than 24 inches apart, fitting common stud intervals and supporting the surface over multiple brackets. The ultra-slim profile helps these different applications keep a clean, floating look.
The Capitol bracket has a stud grip feature that allows you to square the bracket using the front edge of the studs, so it helps hold alignment without requiring a second person during placement. That feature matters when working long runs of shelving or counters, because consistent reference to the stud face keeps brackets on the same plane. The ultra-slim construction lets the mounting style disappear completely behind drywall, which keeps your layout focused on finished dimensions rather than working around visible hardware. Because the bracket is specifically engineered for invisible strength and ease of installation, installers can use the same part number across floating vanities, countertops, benches, and floating shelves, simplifying planning. Keeping shelf depth not farther than 4 inches beyond the end of the support arm helps manage bending forces on the concealed bracket, which supports long-term performance of the floating assembly over normal use.
The Capitol stud mounted floating bracket is designed to support floating vanities, countertops, benches, and floating shelves, so one bracket style serves several common interior projects.
The stud grip feature lets the bracket square against the front edge of wall studs, which holds alignment and simplifies placement when positioning brackets along a wall.
For floating shelf use, the Capitol bracket arms are intended to align with the shelf depth, so the shelf material sits properly over the concealed support.
For countertop installations, the Capitol bracket is designed to align with wall studs and be spaced no more than 24 inches apart to support the surface weight.
The manufacturer does not recommend using a shelf depth farther than 4 inches beyond the end of the support arm, which keeps leverage within the intended design range.
The ultra-slim profile allows the mounting style to disappear completely behind drywall, creating a true floating look without visible metal brackets.
The Capitol stud mounted floating bracket from Federal Brace combines a 10 inch length arm, ultra-slim profile, and stud-install design to support floating shelves, countertops, benches, and vanities while staying hidden. Its stud grip feature helps square the bracket to the framing edge, so layout stays consistent along a run. With alignment guidelines for shelf depth, countertop spacing, and overhang distance, this bracket offers a clear framework for building floating installations that rely on direct stud engagement. Choose this part when projects call for concealed support across multiple surfaces while maintaining a clean, floating visual.
