    Rigid

    Swivel

    Build tube-and-clamp scaffolding and attach supports, such as railings, to frame-style structures. Also known as knuckles. These clamps fit the most common scaffold tube sizes. Made of galvanized steel, they are rust resistant and hold up in outdoor applications.
    Rigid—Rigid clamps create a secure 90° connection between two tubes.
    Swivel—Swivel clamps pivot to connect tubes at any angle.
    Specifications Met—Clamps meet OSHA and Cal/OSHA dimensional and construction standards. Check local, state, and federal codes, including OSHA, for safe set up and operating practices.

    Style C

    Style D

    Clamp onto metal tubes such as pipe, scaffolding, and railing to hang lighting fixtures, threaded rod, and equipment. Made of aluminum, all of these clamps are lightweight and have good corrosion resistance.
    Black Anodized Aluminum—Clamps with a black anodized finish blend into dark backgrounds and are more corrosion resistant than unfinished clamps.
    Style A—Style A clamps have grooves on the inside to improve grip. To mount equipment, remove the bolt on the bottom of the hanger, mount the equipment, and reattach the bolt. To hang threaded rod, remove the bolt and replace it with threaded rod.
    Style B—Style B clamps have a T-handle for attachment and removal. To mount equipment, remove the bolt on the bottom of the hanger, mount the equipment, and reattach the bolt. To hang threaded rod, remove the bolt and replace it with threaded rod.
    Style C—Style C clamps have wing nuts for making adjustments. Remove the wing nut from the bottom bolt and reattach after mounting equipment.
    Style D—Style D clamps have a wing nut and a bolt for making adjustments. To mount equipment, remove the bolt on the bottom of the hanger, mount the equipment, and reattach the bolt. To hang threaded rod, remove the bolt and replace it with threaded rod.

    Clamp-On Framing and Fittings

    Image of System. Front orientation. Contains Annotated. Clamp-On Framing and Fittings. Clamp-On Framing and Fittings .
    Fittings come in two pieces to clasp over rails, making assembly and disassembly quicker than our other framing. Use it to form temporary partitions, modular conveyors, and workstations. To assemble, clamp fittings onto the rail and tighten the included cap screw and nut. For permanent connections and added strength, fittings have a 5/32" hole to drill in an additional screw (not included).
