railings
Balkonhekwerk ca. 220x chemisch m16 (capsule, RVS anker, dopmoer, 2x moer en 3x sluitring)
Galerij ca. 300x chemisch m16 (capsule, RVS anker, dopmoer, 2x moer en 3x sluitring)
Traphek ca. 84x chemisch m12 (capsule, RVS anker, dopmoer en sluitring)
Bwl staanders 284x Express anker m8 of zeskant houtdraad bouten m8
It seems that this is not breadth width length - these are specifications for railings -
Maybe someone has an idea what it is?
