C01 Expanding Connector

Part code: C01

The expanding Connector is designed to provide an in line joint between tubes of the same diameter, and a wall thickness of 3.2mm. It fits flush with the tube surface and can be located inside other fittings. It must not be used as a load-bearing joint, for such applications use a FastClamp type C00.

Description

The C01 Expanding Connector joins two lengths of tube of the same diameter from the inside, so the finished rail has no visible sleeve. Tightening the screw expands the connector against the tube wall. It suits 3.2mm wall tube only, and because it sits inside the bore it can be positioned within another fitting.

It is a cosmetic joint, not a structural one. Use it on handrail tops, shopfitting frames and display work where appearance matters. For any joint that carries load, use the C00 Sleeve Joint.
