Triangle Corner Protector for Small Cases - 28mm Chrome Plated 3 Holes
Here's the problem: You spend hours building a beautiful jewelry box, a premium gift box, or a customized cosmetic case - then the corners are the first thing to wear. They chip, they rub, they split. And by the time you notice, the entire box looks used.
You might have tried using plastic corners - but they crack, they yellow, and they send the wrong signal about quality. Or maybe you've been leaving corners unprotected, accepting that returns and customer complaints are just "part of the business."
The NRH 7401-28-FE-CR solves this. It adds a thin, durable metal layer to the most vulnerable part of your box - not an add-on, but an integrated protection system that keeps your boxes looking new longer. Your customers notice the difference. Your return rate drops. Your products feel more premium from the moment they're opened.
Quick Answer: The NRH 7401-28-FE-CR is a lightweight chrome plated triangle corner protector with 3 mounting holes and 28mm face length. At just 7g with 0.5mm thickness, it features a smooth surface with no embossed groove. Designed for small cases, jewelry boxes, cosmetic cases, and lightweight applications.
How to know if the 28mm triangle corner is right for your box:
☑️ Measure your box wall thickness
Panels under 10mm → 22mm model works. Panels 10-15mm → choose 28mm for full edge coverage without gaps.
☑️ Consider your box size
Small box (under 100mm) → 22mm is more proportionate. Medium box (150-250mm) → 28mm looks balanced and substantial.
☑️ Think about your finishing style
Modern/minimalist → smooth chrome (7401-28-FE-CR). Antique/vintage → embossed groove (7401-28-1-FE-CR) for a decorative accent.
☑️ Check your weight tolerance
At 7g per corner, eight corners add only 56g. If you're air-shipping, this matters. If weight isn't a concern, you can size up to 35mm.
Key Finding: At just 7g with 28mm face length, the 7401-28-FE-CR offers slightly larger coverage than the 22mm model while maintaining ultra-lightweight performance. The smooth surface (no embossed groove) provides a clean, minimalist aesthetic, making it ideal for premium small cases, jewelry boxes, and cosmetic packaging where both protection and appearance matter.

What Makes This Triangle Corner Protector Different
Ultra-Lightweight - Just 7g
At only 7 grams with 0.5mm thickness, the 7401-28-FE-CR is one of the lightest corner protectors in the NRH lineup. Designed for small cases, jewelry boxes, cosmetic cases, and lightweight packaging where weight is a critical factor. The ultra-thin material provides adequate corner reinforcement without adding unnecessary bulk - ideal for air-shipped products where every gram counts.
Smooth Surface - Clean, Minimalist Aesthetic
This model features a smooth surface with no embossed grooves or markings - a clean, minimalist finish that suits premium jewelry boxes, cosmetic cases, and gift packaging. The smooth surface also makes it easier to clean and maintain.
28mm Face Length - Slightly Larger Coverage
At 28mm face length, this model offers slightly more coverage than the 22mm version while remaining compact enough for small cases. This provides a middle-ground option for cases that need a bit more reinforcement than the smallest size but don't require standard 35mm corners.
Triangle Geometry - Clean, Professional Finish
The triangle geometry provides a clean, balanced appearance that complements small cases and boxes. The symmetrical three-way design distributes stress evenly across all three faces, ensuring consistent reinforcement on every side of the corner. The three-hole fixation system (Ø3.5mm) ensures secure mounting on thin panels without splitting or cracking.
3-Hole Fixation System
Three mounting holes (Ø3.5mm) deliver secure fixation with minimal installation effort. Compatible with small rivets, self-tapping screws, or spot welding.
Triangle Corner vs. Standard Flat Corner: Which One Do You Need?
When to Choose This Smooth Triangle Corner
You're building small to medium cases. The 28mm face length offers slightly more coverage than the 22mm model, making it suitable for cases that need a bit more reinforcement while staying compact.
You need a clean, minimalist appearance. The smooth surface with no embossed grooves provides a refined look that enhances premium products like jewelry boxes and gift packaging.
Weight is critical. At just 7g, this corner adds virtually no weight to your product - ideal for lightweight designs and air-shipped products.
You're working with thin panels. The 0.5mm thickness and small 3.5mm mounting holes are designed for thin materials where standard corners would be too heavy or cause splitting.

Applications
Jewelry Boxes
Why this model fits: The smooth chrome surface keeps the focus on your jewelry, not the hardware. At just 7g, it won't tip a lightweight box. The 28mm length provides full edge coverage for boxes up to 200mm without looking oversized. 3-hole fixation ensures the corner stays aligned during frequent opening and closing.
Cosmetic Cases
Why this model fits: Frequent handling means corners take a beating. The 0.5mm steel and chrome plating resist daily wear from hands, tabletops, and storage shelves. The smooth surface wipes clean easily - important for cosmetic packaging that may get product residue on it.
Gift Boxes & Premium Packaging
Why this model fits: Customers perceive boxes with corner hardware as more premium. The triangle shape adds a subtle structural accent that signals quality. The 28mm size looks substantial without overpowering the box. Chrome finish conveys durability and attention to detail - your recipients notice.
Mini Instrument Cases
Why this model fits: Harmonicas, flutes, and small instruments need protection without bulk. The 28mm corner adds a layer of metal protection at the exact point where cases get dropped - the corners. At 7g, it doesn't affect portability. Chrome finish resists scratches from other gear during transport.
What Are You Using Now?
If you're currently using no corner protection or plastic corners, upgrading to steel chrome corners is one of the lowest-cost ways to significantly improve your product quality perception and reduce corner damage returns.

Installation & Maintenance
Installation:
- Position the corner against the case edge
- Mark hole positions using the 3 holes as a guide
- Pre-drill with a 3.0mm bit (slightly smaller than 3.5mm for tight fit)
- Secure with small rivets, self-tapping screws, or spot welding
Maintenance & Storage:
- Wipe with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not use thinners, strong acids, or strong alkalis - these damage the plating
- Store in dry, ventilated areas - avoid prolonged damp conditions

What size corner protector do I need for a small wooden box or jewelry box?
For small wooden boxes, jewelry boxes, and gift boxes, a 28mm face length corner protector like the NRH 7401-28-FE-CR is the ideal size. It provides balanced coverage - larger than 22mm models for better edge protection, but compact enough to maintain the aesthetic of small boxes. If your box has thin walls (under 10mm), the 0.5mm thickness and 3.5mm mounting holes ensure secure installation without splitting the wood. For larger flight cases or heavy-duty equipment boxes, consider the 7201 series with longer face lengths.
Is 0.5mm steel thick enough to protect my boxes?
Yes - for lightweight applications such as jewelry boxes, gift boxes, cosmetic cases, and small instrument cases, 0.5mm mild steel provides sufficient reinforcement without adding unnecessary weight. The chrome plating adds surface hardness and corrosion resistance, protecting against daily wear and minor impacts. For heavy-duty applications like flight cases, industrial tool boxes, or equipment that undergoes frequent rough handling, we recommend the 7201 series with 0.8-1.0mm thickness
How do I install a triangle corner protector on a box?
Installation is simple and takes under 3 minutes per corner: Position the corner against the case edge - the triangle shape should sit flush against both adjoining faces Mark the hole positions using the 3 pre-drilled holes (Ø3.5mm) as a guide Pre-drill with a 3.0mm bit (slightly smaller than 3.5mm for a tight fit, preventing wood splitting) Secure with small rivets, M3 self-tapping screws, or spot welding Pro tip: For thin panels, avoid over-tightening - this can strip the wood or damage the plating
What's the difference between smooth and embossed triangle corners?
The NRH 7401 series offers two surface options with identical dimensions: Feature 7401-28-FE-CR (Smooth) 7401-28-1-FE-CR (Embossed) Surface Smooth, no grooves Single embossed groove (decorative accent) Best for Minimalist, clean aesthetic Premium, decorative finishes Applications Jewelry boxes, gift boxes, modern packaging Antique boxes, vintage-style cases, premium gift boxes Both models share the same 28mm face length, 7g weight, 0.5mm thickness, and 3-hole Ø3.5mm design. Choose smooth for a clean look, embossed for a decorative accent
What's the difference between triangle corners and standard flat corners?
Feature Triangle Corner (7401-28-FE-CR) Standard Flat Corner (7201 Series) Weight 7g - ultra-lightweight 20-45g - heavier Face Length 28mm - compact 35-50mm - larger Thickness 0.5mm - ultra-thin 0.8-1.0mm - standard Hole Diameter Ø3.5mm - for small fasteners Ø4-4.3mm - for standard fasteners Best For Small cases, jewelry boxes, gift boxes, lightweight packaging Standard cases, tool boxes, flight cases Choose triangle corners for small, lightweight boxes where weight and aesthetics matter.
