Galvanised 90 Degree Handrail Bend for 33.7mm Tube, Modular Guard Rail

A ready-made galvanised bend for 33.7mm tube handrails and guard rails. This one-piece bend turns a galvanised tube handrail or guard rail through a smooth right angle, either round a corner in plan or straight down into the ground as an end post. It is bent from the same galvanised tube as the rail, so the run looks continuous, with no bulky fittings and nothing to snag. Join it to straight tube with an internal splice lock, or weld it in and treat the weld with zinc-rich paint. The price shown is for one bend.

Why use a pre-made bend

Smooth and continuous. A bent tube looks cleaner than a clamped joint and leaves no edges for hands or clothing to catch on.

No tube bender needed. The bend is made for you, so site work is just cutting straight tube and joining.

Galvanised for outdoors. Hot-dip galvanised steel stands up to rain and frost with no painting.

Matches standard tube. 33.7mm outside diameter (25NB, 1 inch), the same as standard galvanised handrail and scaffold tube.

Where it is used

Corners of guard rails round platforms, loading docks, walkways and car park edges; rail ends that turn down into the ground; post-and-rail barriers where a smooth corner looks better than a clamp.

Specifications

Fitting

Set out the run, then cut the straight tube to length so each joint falls where you want it. Push an internal splice lock for 33.7mm tube into the bend leg and the straight tube and tighten the grub screws, or weld the joint and dress it with zinc-rich paint. Legs can be cut shorter to suit, but keep enough straight tube each side of the bend for a joiner. Close any open tube ends with a domed end cap.

Care

Galvanising needs no painting. Treat cut ends, welds and scuffs with zinc-rich paint, and check joiner grub screws once a year on busy routes.
