mounting bracket

Wall-fixing support piece

A mounting bracket is a piece of hardware used to attach one object to another—typically securing equipment to a wall, ceiling, or frame.

Brackets come in various shapes (L-shaped, U-shaped, flat plates with holes) depending on what they're holding: a TV mounting bracket, engine mounting brackets.

The mounting part emphasizes that its purpose is attachment rather than structural support.
