The KPC-138 Pipe Clamp Gate Eye is a 100-series bolt-on fitting for 48.3 mm OD, 1-1/2" Sch. 40 pipe. It provides the eye half of a gate hinge pair for swinging pipe gates and barriers, 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.
