A bracket and a cable mounting system which includes a bracket with a center panel or channel and with magnetic pads located on the distal ends of the center panel or channel so that the bracket may be attached to a structure by magnetic attraction. The cable mounting system may also consist of two brackets set a distance apart and a support rail placed in between and coupled to the brackets.

1. A bracket for securing components to a surface of a structure with a radius of curvature, the bracket comprising; a center connecting member with first and second ends;at least two separate leg elements detachably secured to and extending outwardly and downwardly from the first and second ends of the connecting member and terminating at a distal end wherein a curvature of the distal end of the at least two leg elements is matched to a radius of curvature of the structure to which the bracket is to be secured;at least one hole in the center connecting member for securing a component to the bracket; andat least one magnetic pad secured to each distal end of the at least two leg elements, wherein due to the curvature of the at least two leg elements a surficial contact of each magnetic pad with the surface of the structure is maximized and the bracket has an aspect ratio of at least 10%. 2. The bracket of claim 1, wherein the at least two leg elements comprise a total of four legs. 3. The bracket of claim 1, wherein the magnetic pads comprise a magnet with a contact surface fitted into a socket. 4. The bracket of claim 1, wherein there is at least one hole in each of the at least two leg elements for securing components to the bracket. 5. The bracket of claim 1, wherein the components mounted to the bracket and secured to the structure are conduits and cables. 6. The bracket of claim 1, wherein the components are secured to the bracket using clamps. 7. A bracket for securing components to a surface of a structure, the bracket comprising; a center panel with first and second ends and a mid-line about which the center panel is symmetrically bent, the angle of the bend is in the range of from about 5 to 45degrees relative to a flat center panel and the center panel includes at least one through hole;at least one leg element extending outwardly from each of the first and second ends of the center panel;a mounting member rotatably secured by a hinge to each of the at least one leg elements, wherein the mounting member is capable of a range of rotation about the at least one leg element of approximately 180 degrees; andat least one magnetic element detachably secured to the mounting member, wherein the magnetic element maintains contact with the surface of the structure. 8. A bracket for securing components to a surface of a structure, the bracket comprising; a channel member further comprising first and second longitudinally opposed ends, a floor and opposed side walls separated by the floor;at least one leg element outwardly extending from the channel member and detachably secured to the channel member floor and proximate to each of the first and second ends of the channel member, wherein an angle of departure of the at least one leg element extending outwardly from the channel member is determined by the surface of the structure; andat least one magnetic element detachably secured to each of the at least one leg elements, wherein the magnetic element maintains contact with the surface of the structure. 9. The bracket of claim 8, wherein the channel member side walls further comprise upper wall edges opposite a union of the opposed side walls with the channel floor. 10. The bracket of claim 8, wherein the upper wall edges are arcuately bent downward to facilitate engagement with clips for securing components to the bracket. 11. The bracket of claim 8, wherein the components are conduits and cables. 12. The bracket of claim 8, wherein the floor of the channel member has at least one through hole. 13. The bracket of claim 8, wherein the at least one leg element proximate to each of the first and second ends of the channel member is capable of being bent at an angle to increase contact between the at least one magnetic element, secured to each of the at least one leg elements, and the surface of the structure. 14. A system for securing at least one cable to a surface of a structure, the structure having a radius of curvature, the system comprising; first and second brackets separated by a distance, the first and second brackets comprising:a center connecting member with first and second ends;at least two separate leg elements detachably secured to and extending outwardly and downwardly from the first and second ends of the center connecting member and terminating at a distal end wherein a curvature of the distal end of the at least two leg elements is matched to the radius of curvature of the structure;at least one hole in the center connecting member for securing a component to the bracket; andat least one hole in the distal end of each of the at least two leg elements for securing the bracket to the structure, wherein due to alignment of the curvature of the distal end of the at least two legs with the curvature of the structure a surficial contact of the distal end of the at least two legs with the structure is maximized;at least one support rail with first and second ends wherein the support rail is curved to arc away from the structure and is secured through sockets attached to and underneath the center connecting member of the bracket, the first end of the support rail secured to the first bracket and the second end of the support rail secured to the second bracket; anda cable secured to the rail and the first and second brackets.
