Product Description

Overview

The KPC-001 Pipe Clamp Short Tee is a bolt-on malleable iron fitting for 42.4 mm OD, 1-1/4" Sch. 40 pipe. It branches or terminates a perpendicular pipe with a tight, low-profile junction, using stainless steel hex screws to lock the pipe in place without welding, so structures can be installed, adjusted, and reconfigured on site.

Why It Matters

Pipe clamp structures are valuable because they can be changed without cutting and welding. This fitting gives the frame a repeatable junction while keeping the installation serviceable with standard hex screws.

Key Features

  • Malleable iron casting per ASTM A197 provides a durable structural body for tubular frames.
  • Hot dip galvanized treatment per ASTM A153 plus zinc plating supports corrosion resistance in demanding environments.
  • Stainless steel hex screws lock the pipe without welding, helping crews build and revise frames faster.
  • 42.4 mm OD, 1-1/4" Sch. 40 pipe fit matches 1-1/4" nominal Schedule 40 pipe in the KUPO pipe clamp system.

Applications

A strong fit for display frames, guardrails, scenic structures, camera platforms, retail pipe builds, trade-show frames, and temporary or semi-permanent tubular structures.

Compatibility

Fits 42.4 mm OD, 1-1/4" Sch. 40 pipe; related sister fittings cover the alternate KUPO pipe clamp diameter.
