16 – 2×4 Weld-On Steel Stake Pockets (7-Gauge / 3⁄16")
This 16-pack of heavy-duty 2×4 stake pockets is fabricated from true 7-gauge (3/16") steel, designed for weld-on installation on equipment trailers, flatbeds, utility trailers, and custom fabrication builds. These pockets accept standard 2×4 lumber, making them ideal for removable sides, load security, and structural extensions.
Each pocket is press-formed for consistency and arrives in bare steel — ready for welding, primer, and paint. This is the same pocket style used by major U.S. commercial trailer manufacturers for high-duty sidewall frames and cargo retention.
