316 Stainless Steel Square Glass Holder 50mm, Deep Body, 70mm Stud, for 8-16mm Glass, Satin

A square 316 stainless point fixing that stands a glass panel off a flat post, a wall or the edge of a slab. A 50mm square satin cap on the face of the glass connects through a drilled hole to a 50mm square deep block body behind it, and a 70mm threaded stud fixes the holder to the structure. It suits glass from 8mm to 16mm thick, with gaskets either side of the panel. The price shown is for one glass holder.

Why choose this glass holder

A square, architectural look. Sharp square corners suit square posts, stone cladding and modern rectilinear buildings, where a round cap would look out of place.

Deep body, more stand-off. The deep block holds the panel further off the structure and gives a substantial, solid look. The back of the body also has four corner holes, as pictured.

Big bearing area. The 50mm square cap and gaskets spread the clamping load over a wide area of glass, which suits heavier panels.

316 for outdoors. 316 stainless resists salt and chlorine much better than 304, so it suits balconies, coastal homes and pool surrounds.

Where it is used

Side-fixed glass balustrades on stairs, mezzanines and balconies; glass panels stood off walls and square posts; and glass screens and feature panels in hotels, offices and public buildings.

Specifications

Is this the right glass holder?

Choosing the right option

Choose the body and stud to suit how far the glass needs to stand off and how deep your fixing can go. Measure your glass thickness: 8mm to 16mm is covered. Have the glass drilled before it is toughened, with holes matched to your fixing positions and sized for the sleeve supplied. No dimension sheet is published for this line, so the body depth and stud thread are worth confirming with us before you drill anything. Where the glass forms guarding, the panel size, glass type and fixings must be designed to suit the loads required, so ask your designer before you order.

Fitting and care

Fix the stud into the post or wall with a suitable anchor or resin fixing, then screw the body on and square it up with a level. Fit a gasket, the sleeve and the glass, then the second gasket, and fit the square cap so the glass is held firmly without stressing it. Line the caps up with each other along the panel. Outdoors, rinse with fresh water and wipe along the grain every few weeks. Use warm soapy water and avoid chlorine bleach, wire wool and scouring pads.
