The KPC-132 Pipe Clamp Railing Base Flange is a 100-series bolt-on fitting for 48.3 mm OD, 1-1/2" Sch. 40 pipe. It anchors railing posts to floors or platforms with a flat bolt-down base, 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
Railing posts get touched, leaned on, and inspected more than most display hardware. This base flange gives the 48.3 mm post a clean floor or platform connection.
Key Features
Flat railing base flange anchors vertical railing posts to floors, platforms, or similar mounting surfaces.
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
Designed for railing posts, platform edges, temporary guardrails, access barriers, event structures, and 48.3 mm outside diameter pipe-based safety or guidance frames.
Compatibility
Fits 48.3 mm OD, 1-1/2" Sch. 40 pipe; related sister fittings cover the alternate KUPO pipe clamp diameter.
