Kee Klamp^® 管接件

常见问题解答

• • What are Kee Klamp components used for?
    With Kee Klamp components, you can build various tubular structures such as railing, racking, retail store fixtures, soft contained play systems, awning, fencing, machinery framework, and 1001 other applications.
  • What is a Kee Klamp structural tube component?
    Kee Klamp slip-on tube components are cast-iron tube components, which conform to BS EN 1562/1563, SAE J158 A grade M3210, ASTM A47-77-32510. Kee Klamp components are used in conjunction with steel pipe to build structures of unlimited size and scope. Casehardened grub screws attach the fittings securely around the tube. There is no welding or drilling required when building with Kee Klamp components. Kee Klamp components are galvanised, making them ideal for indoor or outdoor use. The only tools required for building Kee Klamp structures are a tube cutter and a standard hex key.
  • What style or types are available?
    Over sixty styles of Kee Klamp components are available to meet almost any structural tube needs. Visit our Online Catalog to view the available styles and types.
• • Are there Kee Klamp components available to modify or extend an existing tube structure?
    Yes, Kee Safety has designed several add-on components for retrofitting existing tubular structures. Please call or email us with your specific need.
  • What about the components being tampered with?
    Grub screw inserts are available to deter tampering with a finished Kee Klamp structure.
  • What is the recommended torque for the grub screws?
    When constructing with Kee Klamp components we recommend that you tighten the grub screw to 29 lbs./ft. or 39 Nm. This is approximately "hand-tight."
  • What size hex key is used with Kee Klamp components?
    Size 4 fittings use a 3/16" (4.76mm) A.F. (Across Flat) hex key, while Sizes 5 and 6 use a ¼" (6.35mm) A.F. hex key. Sizes 7, 8, and 9 fittings use a 5/16" (7.94mm) A.F. hex key.
  • Will Kee Klamp components rust if used outdoors?
    Kee Klamp components are galvanized to BS 729 (ISO 1461) and ASTM A153 which can last for over 30 years. Kee Klamp grub screws are treated with our Kee Koat^® corrosion protection. The fitting recesses are also coated with our factory-applied, ThredKoat^®(patented), corrosion resistance.
• • Are Kee Klamp components available with alternative finishes?
    Besides the long-lasting galvanized finish, Kee Klamp components can be powder coated to any RAL color.
  • Can different sizes of tube be used when building tubular structures with Kee Klamp components?
    Yes, Kee Safety has designed several of its components with multiple sized barrels to allow for the utilisation of different sizes of pipe when building tubular structures.
  • What are the structural design specifications when building with Kee Klamp components?
    An independent laboratory has tested Kee Klamp components in terms of load capacity and vibration resistance. Using these results, we have developed a series of structural design guidelines that must be followed when building with Kee Klamp components. These can be found in the "Tech Spec" section to the left.
  • What quality certifications has Kee Safety attained?
    Kee Safety is certified to ISO 9001, the core Kee Klamp components have attained TUV certification.
