Quick answer

HDPE cage brackets and accessories are the structural backbone of floating fish farming systems. Moulded from heavy-duty, UV-resistant high-density polyethylene, they connect floating collars, handrails and walkways. Double-hole brackets fit dual parallel HDPE pipes for buoyancy and handrails, while injection-moulded brackets offer high tensile strength and flexibility without metal parts.


Cage brackets and accessories form the structural backbone of modern floating fish farming systems. Molded primarily from heavy-duty, UV-resistant High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE), these components securely connect floating collars, handrails, and walkways while withstanding harsh open-water and marine environments. 

Main Types of Cage Brackets

  • Double-Hole Brackets: Fit dual parallel HDPE pipes to manage main buoyancy and handrails.
  • Injection-Molded Brackets: Offer high tensile strength and flexibility without metal parts, ideal for rough open-water sites.
  • Rotational-Molded Brackets: Provide a cost-effective choice for smaller, calmer inland or reservoir setups.

Essential Cage Accessories

  • Connecting Pins and Bolts: Secure brackets tightly to HDPE frames without corroding.
  • Mooring Hardware: Includes marine anchors, chains, swivels, and heavy-duty ropes to keep cages stationary.
  • Nets and Netting: Inner nylon fish-retaining nets and outer predator or bird-deterrent covers.
  • Buoyancy Aids: Foam fillings and auxiliary buoys that stabilize floating collars.
