Description
A smooth, rounded end to a yellow GRP handrail, ready drilled. This moulded yellow GRP elbow bends the top rail down into the end post through a smooth 90 degree radius, so there is no open tube end or sharp corner to catch a hand. It can also turn a run of rail through 90 degrees. The two halves close round the tubes and come pre-drilled with stainless M6 bolts and rivet nuts. The price shown is for one elbow, with a minimum order of 5.
Why choose it
Smooth radius. A rounded bend, kinder to hands and clothing than a square corner.
Two jobs. Ends a run at a post, or turns it through 90 degrees.
No rust, no hot work. Moulded GRP, fixed cold with stainless fixings.
High visibility. Safety yellow all the way through, so scratches do not show grey.
Where it is used
The ends of guard rails and the corners of platforms and walkways in yellow GRP handrail at water and wastewater treatment works, chemical plants, rail depots, food factories and electrical sites.

Load tested system
The 50mm GRP tube handrail system these parts belong to has been load tested by an independent UK laboratory as a straight two-rail balustrade, 1100mm high with a mid rail at 550mm and posts at 1000mm centres. It carried 0.4 kN/m, above the 0.36 kN/m general duty load for industrial handrails in BS 4592-0.
Pre-drilled, bolts included
This is the drilled version: the fixing holes are already made and it comes with the stainless M6 fixings it needs, so it goes straight onto the tube.

Fitting
Cut the end post and the rail so they meet inside the elbow. Close the two halves round the post top and the rail end, fit the rivet nuts into the drilled holes, pass the M6 bolts through and tighten with a hex key.
Care
Wash down with water and mild detergent. Check the bolts once a year and after any impact. GRP needs no painting.
