Product Description

Overview

The KPC-031B Pipe Clamp Base Flange is a bolt-on malleable iron fitting for 42.4 mm OD, 1-1/4" Sch. 40 pipe. It terminates a pipe to a flat surface with bolt-down mounting holes for posts and uprights, using stainless steel hex screws to lock the pipe without welding so frames, rails, and structures can be assembled or reconfigured on site.

Why It Matters

The black finish helps visible pipe structures sit quieter in scenic, retail, and event environments. Functionally, this is still a KUPO pipe clamp fitting built for fast bolt-on assembly and reliable rework.

Key Features

  • Bolt-down flange base terminates pipe to a flat surface for posts, uprights, and frame starts.
  • Malleable iron casting per ASTM A197 gives the fitting a durable body for tubular structures.
  • ASTM A153 hot dip galvanized treatment plus zinc plating supports corrosion resistance in real installation environments.
  • Stainless steel hex screws lock the pipe firmly with no welding required.

Applications

Made for upright posts, display bases, platform rails, pipe frames, shop-built support structures, and temporary or semi-permanent installations anchored to flat surfaces.

Compatibility

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