Without hinged pipe connectors, it would often be very complicated to change or expand existing pipe constructions such as scaffolding, shelving made of pipes, handrails and railings. If a tube connector is hinged, on the other hand, you can easily integrate it into the existing construction. Here in the online store, you can get different fold-out pipe connector variants for pipes with different outer diameters. All pipe connectors are protected against the effects of weather and corrosion and can therefore be used both indoors and outdoors.
That you want to subsequently change or expand a pipe construction can happen in any area of the construction. Therefore, a wide variety of pipe connectors exist in a hinged version. In the assortment of this online store there are, among others, hinged cross pieces, tees and corner pieces. In the case of tees, we also offer variants with bolts. They connect two continuous pipes at right angles to each other and above or next to each other. Most pipe connectors are available for pipes with different outside diameters, ranging from 26.9 to 60.3 millimeters. The specifications are based on the standards DIN EN ISO 6708 and EN 10255. The outside diameters given in millimeters are assigned specifications in inches, whereby these pipe dimensions refer to the inside diameter. Thus, the outside diameter of 26.9 millimeters represents a ¾-inch pipe. At 33.7 millimeters outside diameter, it is a one-inch pipe. A 1 ¼ inch pipe has the outer diameter of 42.2 millimeters, a 1 ½ inch pipe comes to 48.3 millimeters and a 2 inch pipe to 60.3 millimeters.
Here available hinged pipe connectors are tested by TÜV: like all pipe connectors in this online store. And like all other pipe connectors, they are made of malleable cast iron that has been hot-dip galvanized and electrogalvanized. This gives them optimum protection against corrosion and makes them particularly durable. All pipe connectors - hinged or not - are supplied with the required clamping self-tapping screws. These screws fix the tube very well in the connector. The self-tapping screws are made of stainless steel and are therefore just as robust as the tube connectors.
