We stock clamps with a number of different finishes. From brushed or polished stainless steel to raw uncoated zintec or matt chromium plated and powder coated zintec our designs and coatings give a sleek and unique finish. Our priority with all the products that we sell is safety. It goes without saying that balustrades that are partly composed of glass must never be allowed to break even under the most extreme strain. Included with the glass clamps that we sell are the safety pins and the rubbers that are inserted between the glass and the clamp as standard.
We stock either end round or middle round glass clamps. The end round glass clamps are designed to suit 10mm to 12mm glass. They are moulded to suit 42.4.4mm or 48.3mm tube. They are stocked in either satin polished grade 304 or 316.
Our baluster brackets can accommodate either 42.4 mil or 48.3 mil tube. They are sold in either grade 304 or 316 stainless steel. You can purchase baluster brackets either with the angle of the bracket fixed or adjustable when fixed to the wall. The tube to be used with the baluster bracket is sold separately. Tube can be cut to any size that you require.
Our range of connectors, allows you to join tube to tube and tube to wall at any conceivable angle. If you are installing in tight corners or on uneven surfaces our products provide a practical solution to every challenge. All of our connectors are designed to fit perfectly with our tube.
