Product Description
Overview
The KPC-161B Pipe Clamp 90? Crossover is a 100-series bolt-on fitting for 48.3 mm OD, 1-1/2" Sch. 40 pipe. It lets two pipes intersect at right angles with one passing over the other, using stainless steel hex screws to lock the pipe without welding so smaller-format rail, display, and frame structures can be assembled and reworked on site.
Why It Matters
The black finish helps visible pipe structures sit quieter in scenic, retail, and event environments while keeping the same no-weld pipe clamp workflow.
Key Features
- 90° crossover form supports two intersecting pipe runs with one passing over the other.
- 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
A practical choice for display grids, rectangular pipe frames, guardrail intersections, scenic structures, retail pipe systems, and booth layouts with crossing right-angle members.
Compatibility
Fits 48.3 mm OD, 1-1/2" Sch. 40 pipe; related sister fittings cover the alternate KUPO pipe clamp diameter.
