Abstract
A trailer fairing bracket for mounting an aerodynamic side fairing to a cargo trailer includes a support strut having a main body. An outwardly extending clamping wedge portion extends generally perpendicular to the main body. The main body is configured to support a trailer side fairing. The main body includes an elongated center portion having first and second ends, a central axis extending between the first and second ends, a lower skirt-mounting portion proximate the first end and extending perpendicular to the central axis, and an upper skirt-mounting portion disposed at the second end extending perpendicular to the central axis. The support strut is of a single molded piece construction. A pair of side clamping members cooperate with the clamping wedge portion of the support strut for securing the support strut to a cargo trailer.
