Product Description
Overview
The KPC-119 Pipe Clamp Two Socket Cross is a 100-series bolt-on fitting for 48.3 mm OD, 1-1/2" Sch. 40 pipe. It creates a four-way intersection with two perpendicular sockets for branch pipes, using stainless steel hex screws to lock the pipe without welding so smaller-format rail, display, and frame structures can be assembled and reconfigured on site.
Why It Matters
A crossing point gets crowded quickly when it is built from several separate tees. This fitting keeps the 48.3 mm outside diameter pipe intersection defined in one body, which is cleaner to assemble and easier to inspect.
Key Features
- Two perpendicular branch sockets organize a four-way intersection in one fitting.
- Malleable iron casting per ASTM A197 provides a durable body for modular tubular structures.
- ASTM A153 hot dip galvanized treatment plus zinc plating supports corrosion resistance in demanding environments.
- Stainless steel hex screws lock the pipe without welding, helping crews assemble and revise frames cleanly.
Applications
Useful for pipe grids, display frames, railing intersections, retail structures, scenic walls, and 48.3 mm outside diameter pipe layouts where branch pipes cross a main run.
Compatibility
Fits 48.3 mm OD, 1-1/2" Sch. 40 pipe; related sister fittings cover the alternate KUPO pipe clamp diameter.
