Applications

Key clamp fittings secure tubes together when constructing various types of handrailing and guardrailing, found in both indoor and outdoor locations. These applications can be extremely useful, having multi purposes and can be made for permanent structures or to stand temporarily.

• A few examples of handrail and guardrail structures include:
• Balconies
• Children’s playground equipment
• Exhibition stands
• Wheelchair access ramps
• Safety barriers
• Trolley bays

Functions

There are numerous fittings which have different functions. In addition to connecting and joining tubes together, they can enable tubes to cross over, allow multiple tubes to connect and go in different directions, to be positioned at a slope or an angle, to be fixed onto walls or to the ground and they can also form a curve or ‘elbow’ within a structure.

Fittings should be chosen in accordance with the size (diameter) of the tube that is being used.

*Please note: It is your responsibility to ensure that wall thicknesses are appropriate for the insertion of a Through Bolt.
