It’s stamped from 22 gauge galvanized steel and made in the USA by Construction Ventures Corporation. The bar screws into the cabinet sides at both ends, bonds to the underside of the top with silicone or rubberized adhesive caulk, and gives the installer a row of holes to catch the dishwasher’s factory straps. It goes in before or after the counter top is set, and the dishwasher doesn’t have to be on site.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChemical Concepts is a listed authorized retailer for the genuine E-Z Dishwasher Bracket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Product Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eProperty\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTop-mount dishwasher mounting bracket\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e22 gauge galvanized steel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e24 in\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e24 x 1 x 0.5 in\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eShipping Weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.3 lb\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIncluded Hardware\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e(4) #6 x 1\/2 in wood screws\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAttachment to Cabinet\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWood screws through the end tabs, tabs flush to the cabinet facing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAttachment to Countertop\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSilicone or rubberized adhesive caulk on the three raised panels\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDishwasher Attachment\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMultiple holes along the bar for the factory dishwasher straps\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSKU\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCCH-DWBAR\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConstruction Ventures Corporation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCountry of Manufacture\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUSA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow Dishwasher Mounting to a Stone Countertop Works\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA dishwasher ships with two straps meant to screw up into the underside of the counter top.

The E-Z Dishwasher Bracket screws into the cabinet sides at both ends and bonds to the underside of the top with silicone or rubberized adhesive caulk. The dishwasher’s factory straps then screw into holes along the bar. Nothing is drilled or cored into the granite.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eIs a dishwasher mounting bar the same thing as a dishwasher bracket?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Dishwasher bracket, dishwasher mounting bracket, dishwasher mounting bar, granite dishwasher bracket, and top-mount dishwasher bracket all describe the same part. Our part code is DWBAR.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat size dishwasher bracket do I need?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA 24 in bracket covers a standard full-size dishwasher opening. The multiple attachment points along the bar handle small variations in cabinet width, so one length fits most standard openings. For an 18 in compact opening, call us at (800) 220-1966 and we’ll source it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat adhesive do you use with the E-Z Dishwasher Bracket?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSilicone or rubberized adhesive caulk, run on the three raised panels. The install sheets call for it on all three installation methods. The caulk does two jobs, it bonds the bracket to the underside of the top and it absorbs the shock of the dishwasher door.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWill it work with quartz, laminate, and solid surface countertops?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The bracket installs under any counter top material, and the manufacturer publishes a separate install sheet for laminate tops. Because the load goes to the cabinet and the bracket, the top material doesn’t have to hold a fastener.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCan the bracket go in before the dishwasher is delivered?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, and that’s the main reason shops use it. The bracket mounts on top of the cabinets before the counter top is set, so the appliance doesn’t need to be on site. Whoever installs the dishwasher later just straps it to the bar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eIs the E-Z Dishwasher Bracket made in the USA?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. It’s stamped from 22 gauge galvanized steel in the USA by Construction Ventures Corporation, a family-owned company in Williamson County, Tennessee.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eAre the dishwasher brackets listed on Amazon the same product?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer says no. Construction Ventures publishes a notice that brackets sold on Amazon as E-Z Dishwasher Brackets are not their product, and that the ones they reviewed used thinner material, came with the wrong screws, had a poor finish, or had fewer mounting holes.
