Product Description
Overview
The KPC-A1230 C Short Tee Swivel is an A535 aluminum-magnesium alloy slip-on pipe clamp for 48.30 mm (1.90") outside diameter tube. It adds a short-body tee with a swivel branch so the perpendicular pipe can angle off-axis from the main run, using 3/8" galvanized steel recessed grub screws with reverse knurled cup points for a no-weld structure that installs with a standard hex key.
Why It Matters
A fixed tee can make a brace fight the frame when the angle is not square. This short tee swivel gives the branch room to follow the actual structure while keeping the tee body compact.
Key Features
- Swivel branch allows the perpendicular pipe to angle off-axis from the main run.
- A535 aluminum-magnesium alloy keeps the fitting lightweight and corrosion resistant for outdoor or harsh environments.
- 3/8" galvanized steel recessed grub screws with reverse knurled cup points hold the pipe securely.
- Standard hex-key installation avoids welding, specialist labor, and permanent fabrication.
Additional Technical Notes
- Set Screws: 3/8" galvanized steel recessed grub screw with reverse knurled cup point
Applications
Use for diagonal branches, angled supports, compact display frames, scenic structures, retail pipework, and pipe layouts where a branch needs both short spacing and angle adjustment.
Compatibility
Fits 48.30 mm (1.90") outside diameter tube for Schedule 40 nominal pipe. The related KPC-A1430 C version fits the companion tube size in the same KPC-A family.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this part of the aluminum-magnesium clamp family?
Yes. It is an A535 aluminum-magnesium alloy slip-on fitting, not one of the cast-iron KPC pipe clamps.
Why use a short tee swivel instead of a fixed short tee?
Use the swivel version when the branch pipe needs to leave the main run at an angle rather than a fixed square position.
Which tube size does this version fit?
This version fits 48.30 mm (1.90") outside diameter tube. Check the sister model if your structure uses the companion KPC-A tube size.
