Product Description
Overview
The KPC-047B Pipe Clamp Internal Swivel Tee is a bolt-on malleable iron fitting for 42.4 mm OD, 1-1/4" Sch. 40 pipe. It adds a swiveling perpendicular branch with adjustable angle for braces, stays, and non-square pipe layouts, using stainless steel hex screws to lock the pipe without welding so frame, rail, and display structures can be assembled and revised on site.
Why It Matters
The black finish helps visible pipe frames sit quieter in scenic, retail, and event environments. Functionally, the fitting still carries the corrosion-resistant pipe clamp construction and bolt-on serviceability crews expect.
Key Features
- Internal swivel branch provides angle adjustment for braces and stays during on-site layout.
- Malleable iron casting per ASTM A197 provides a durable body for tubular structures.
- ASTM A153 hot dip galvanized treatment plus zinc plating supports corrosion resistance for demanding environments.
- Stainless steel hex screws lock the pipe firmly without welding, helping crews build and rework faster.
Applications
Useful for diagonal stays, angled braces, custom display frames, rail supports, scenic structures, and pipe layouts where the branch angle cannot be fixed in advance.
Compatibility
Fits 42.4 mm OD, 1-1/4" Sch. 40 pipe; related sister fittings cover the alternate KUPO pipe clamp diameter.
