2205 Duplex Stainless Glass Spigot, Base Fix, Satin, for 12-17.5mm Glass

A heavy duty base-fix spigot that holds frameless toughened glass from 12 to 17.5mm thick, in satin 2205 duplex stainless steel. The tapered post bolts down through its rectangular base, the bottom edge of the glass drops into the 18mm slot on rubber gaskets, and an M24 side screw clamps it tight. A satin cover plate then hides the base and its bolts, so only a slim brushed post shows. Duplex 2205 is stronger and more corrosion resistant than 316 stainless, which makes it a first choice for pool fences, coastal terraces and balconies. The price shown is for one spigot.

What you get

Why choose this spigot

Duplex for tough places. 2205 duplex has higher strength and better resistance to chloride pitting than 316 stainless, so it is the grade to pick next to a pool, by the sea or on an exposed balcony.

Classic brushed finish. The satin finish matches stainless handrails and fittings and shows little wear. For a dark modern look use the black duplex spigot for 12 to 17.5mm glass.

Adjustable fixing. The two base holes are slotted, 22mm long, so you can line the spigots up along a run before tightening, and the cover plate hides the bolts afterwards.

Specifications

Is this the right spigot?

Fitting

Set out the spigots along the line of the balustrade, usually two per panel, with the spacing set by the glass size. Fix each base down to concrete or steel with suitable stainless anchors or bolts through the slotted holes, check the slots line up, then fit the cover plates. Lower the glass onto the rubber gaskets in the slots, plumb it, and tighten the M24 side screws with a pin spanner. Fit the screw caps to finish.

Safety. Use toughened or toughened laminated safety glass only. Spigot spacing, glass thickness, fixings and the strength of the floor for a guarding balustrade or pool fence must be set by whoever designs and signs off the job, to BS 6180 where it applies.

Care

Rinse with fresh water and wipe along the grain every few weeks, more often near the sea or a pool, so salt and chlorine do not leave brown tea staining. Use warm soapy water; avoid chlorine bleach, wire wool and scouring pads.
