The KPC-A1405E Short Tee is an A535 aluminum-magnesium alloy slip-on pipe clamp for 42.40 mm (1.66") outside diameter tube. It creates a compact three-way tee for tight spacing, 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
Compact frames often leave little room around branch points. The short tee keeps the branch body tidy where a long tee would interfere.
Key Features
Compact tee body suits tight spacing where a long tee would interfere with adjacent fittings.
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 close-spaced branches, display frames, retail structures, exhibition bays, guardrails, and pipe layouts where branch clearance is limited.
Compatibility
Fits 42.40 mm (1.66") outside diameter tube for Schedule 40 nominal pipe. The related KPC-A1205E 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.
When should I pick the short tee?
Choose it when the branch point needs to stay compact or when nearby fittings would interfere with a longer tee body.
Which tube size does this version fit?
This version fits 42.40 mm (1.66") outside diameter tube. Check the sister model if your structure uses the companion KPC-A tube size.
