Explore similar options for angled connections: Check our acute angle elbow (40°–70°) 123 for secure two-tube sloped joints in handrails or guardrails. To complete your wall railing installations, pair it with our wall-mounted handrail bracket 143 for easy, direct wall fixing of parallel rails.

This clamp shines in scenarios where angled supports are essential. It’s commonly used in staircase railings to connect centre posts, mid-rails, and lower rail supports, ensuring smooth, safe inclines. Beyond stairs, it’s perfect for angled bracing in scaffolding setups, safety barriers on construction sites, or even custom furniture frames. Imagine reinforcing a greenhouse structure or building a ramp handrail, the adjustable angle makes it adaptable to uneven terrains or specific design needs. Customers love it for its role in exhibition stands, temporary event setups, and industrial shelving, where quick adjustments save time and reduce material waste. If your project involves tubes at non-standard angles, this clamp provides the stability you need without the need for custom fabrication.

Safety is paramount with the tube clamp-130. Always tighten the stainless steel grub screws using a ratchet wrench key to achieve the full 900kg slip load capacity. Loose fittings can compromise structural integrity. Avoid placing it at the very top of a vertical tube to prevent slippage under load. The clamp complies with BS EN 1562:1997 for material strength and BS EN 1461:1999 for galvanising, ensuring it withstands harsh weather and heavy use without rusting or weakening. Regular inspections are recommended for high-traffic or outdoor applications to detect wear. For compliance, it’s tested for durability in load-bearing scenarios, giving you peace of mind in regulated environments like construction sites. If you’re unsure about installation, consult a professional to align with local building codes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

The clamp has a hinged central section with pre-set adjustment points and a large tightening grub screw. You loosen the screw, rotate the cross tube to your desired angle within the 30–45° range, then re-tighten firmly for a rock-solid connection.

Yes, it’s widely used for diagonal bracing in scaffolding, hoardings, and event staging because the adjustable angle lets you match the exact brace angle needed for stability.

For best stability, we suggest at least 150 mm of tube extending above and below the clamp jaws. This prevents twisting or load-induced failure.

It securely joins three tubes: two vertical ones that stay fixed and one angled tube in the middle.

Yes, it’s a top choice for railing supports, ensuring safe and stable angled connections.

It can be used in non-public domestic projects (sheds, pergolas, raised beds, etc.). Still, for playgrounds or publicly accessible structures, you must ensure the complete installation meets relevant safety standards (e.g., EN 1176) and have it assessed by a qualified designer.
