Installation
Push the tube into the fitting, align it and tighten the supplied stainless steel self-tapping screw to the specified tightening torque. The screw cuts its own thread into the tube – no pre-drilling, no thread cutting, no welding. An Allen key is the only tool required.
Note: This tube clamp fitting is not intended for handrail and railing construction and not for scaffolding construction. Under dynamic loading, check the screw connections for tightness regularly and retighten them.
