Product Description

Overview

The KPC-035 Pipe Clamp Clamp-On Tee is a bolt-on malleable iron fitting for 42.4 mm OD, 1-1/4" Sch. 40 pipe. It adds a perpendicular branch to an existing pipe without breaking the main run, 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

Adding a branch after a frame is built should not mean rebuilding the whole run. The clamp-on tee lets the crew create a new branch point around an existing pipe.

Key Features

  • Clamp-on design adds a branch pipe to an existing main run without disassembling the full structure.
  • 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

Helpful for retrofitting display frames, adding rail branches, revising scenic pipe structures, modifying booth layouts, and creating late-stage attachment points.

Compatibility

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