Product Description
Overview
The KPC-A1270 Plug is an A535 aluminum-magnesium alloy slip-on pipe clamp for 48.30 mm (1.90") outside diameter tube. It caps the open end of a pipe for safety and visual finish; weather resistance refers to the surface finish, 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
Open pipe ends look unfinished and can collect debris or create a contact hazard. The plug closes the run cleanly in the same polished alloy family.
Key Features
- End plug closes open pipe ends for a safer and cleaner finished structure.
- 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 at exposed pipe ends in retail displays, guardrails, outdoor structures, restaurant fit-outs, playground or recreational venues, and exhibition frames.
Compatibility
Fits 48.30 mm (1.90") outside diameter tube for Schedule 40 nominal pipe. The related KPC-A1470 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.
Is this a structural connector?
No. It is an end plug for capping open pipe, improving safety and appearance; weather resistance refers to the surface finish, not a sealed pipe end.
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.
