Description
Where a level handrail runs straight on up a stair or ramp. This galvanised key clamp tee sits on top of a post: the post goes into the bottom socket, the level rail into one side and the sloping rail into the other, in a straight line in plan, with the sloping socket set to rise at 30 to 45 degrees. It suits 42.4mm (32NB) tube and locks with hex socket grub screws, so the change of slope is made in one neat fitting with no bending or welding. The price shown is for one.
Why choose it
Level to sloping in one fitting. No bent tube and no separate elbow and tee.
Straight run. The rail carries straight on up the stair, it does not turn a corner.
Galvanised. Malleable iron, hot-dip galvanised to match galvanised tube outdoors.
Adjust on site. Suits any stair or ramp pitch from 30 to 45 degrees.
Where it is used
The foot of external stairs and steep ramps at schools, offices, public buildings and car parks; stairs to loading docks, mezzanines and plant platforms; steps in parks and public spaces.

Up or down?
Stand on the level part of the rail and look along it. If the rail then climbs, you need the sloping up tee; if it drops, the sloping down tee. This is the sloping up version.

Fitting
Set the post plumb and slide the tee onto it. Push the level rail fully into its socket, then set the sloping rail to the stair pitch, check the rail heights above the nosings and landing, and tighten all the grub screws firmly with a hex key.
Care
Check the grub screws once a year on busy stairs. Treat any cut tube ends or scuffs to the galvanising with a zinc-rich paint.
