The KUPO KCP-838 Handcuff Coupler is a polished fast-deploy coupler for 48 to 51 mm pipe. Its triggering mechanical design snaps around the tube in one motion, while the 6061 high tensile aluminum body, M12 x 38 mm bolt, and TÜV APPROVED certified 200 kg Working Load Limit support serious overhead fixture work.
Why It Matters
The standard Handcuff Coupler exists because overhead work rewards speed and control. It drops over the pipe, closes quickly, and keeps the wing nut captive, so the rigger spends less time fighting loose hardware above head height.
