Bookend MAUL 3506390 Black Metal

The MAUL 3506390 Black Metal bookend is a compact, functional accessory designed to keep books upright and orderly on shelves and desks. Made of black metal with a thickness of 0.8 mm, each pack contains two bookends sized 120 x 140 x 140 mm, offering stable support for a range of book sizes while maintaining a low visual profile.

Advantages

The metal construction provides rigidity and long-term durability without adding bulk. The slim black finish integrates unobtrusively into different interior styles and office layouts. The L-shaped dimensions allow for reliable lateral support and stable placement on flat surfaces, reducing slippage and tipping of stacked or adjacent books.

Suitable for

• Office bookshelves and reference sections
• Home bookcases and personal libraries
• Student desks and study areas
• Retail displays and small showroom shelving
• Organizing manuals, folders and magazines

Key specifications

• Material: metal
• Color: black finish
• Material thickness: 0.8 mm
• Dimensions: 120 x 140 x 140 mm (each piece)
• Pack contents: 2 bookends per pack

How to use

Place one bookend at each end of a row of books to provide lateral support, or use a single bookend against a wall or divider to stop books from leaning. Position the longer leg under the books and the shorter leg along the shelf surface for maximum stability. For thin or lightweight books, pair two bookends closer together to prevent sliding; for heavier volumes, ensure the base of the bookend lies flat and flush with the shelf to distribute weight evenly.

Usage recommendations

To protect shelving surfaces, check that edges are free of burrs and consider adding small felt pads under the base if the shelf finish is delicate. Avoid overloading a single bookend beyond its supportive capacity; distribute heavy books across multiple supports to maintain balance and prevent deformation of the metal.
