Gezu Impex Offset 90 Crossover Clamps - 27 mm - Hot Dip Galvanised
The offset 90° crossover clamp connects two tubes at a 90-degree angle and is used for long tube r...The offset 90° crossover clamp connects two tubes at a 90-degree angle and is used for long tube runs without needing to join them on both sides of an upright. It keeps structures strong and stable and allows pipes to cross at a 90° angle without cutting. Commonly used for racking, handrails, and guardrails, the crossover key clamp also works well in square and rectangular frameworks, reducing the need for extra fittings. Made from heavy-duty SG cast iron, our offset crossover joint 90° key clamp is unbreakable, unbendable and capable of bearing heavy loads without cracking or warping. Unlike regular metal clamps, these tube clamp 90-degree crossover won’t rust, corrode, or degrade over time due to a hot dip galvanised and black powder coating. Black powder coating provides a smooth shiny finish, adds another barrier against moisture and UV damage, resists moisture, scratches and extreme temperature while maintaining its colour. These offset 90 deg crossover clamp fitting come with stainless steel grub screws (Allen screws) for a fast, easy and secure fit. Simply use an Allen key to tighten the screws and your pipes will be locked in place. There is no need for welding or special tools. If needed, you can loosen and adjust the clamp without damaging the pipe. This key clamp fitting lets two pipes cross at a fixed 90-degree angle without cutting, making assembly easier. This offset crossover clamp is for 27mm diameter steel and alloy tubes and provides a strong connection. It keeps structures stable and wobble-free, making offset crossover joints ideal for safety railings, shelving and other frameworks. Once tightened, it firmly holds pipes in place, preventing any shifting or loosening, even under heavy loads and constant use. Offset 90-degree crossover tube clamp is useful for long railings, guardrails, and racks where you don’t want to join pipes at both ends. It keeps structures strong and stable without extra work. You can use pipe fitting clamps for racking & shelving, carports & benches, playgrounds & shopping trolley bays, market stalls & bike racks, handrails & safety barriers.

Product Information
Full details
The Gezu Impex Offset 90° Crossover Clamp is designed for individuals and professionals needing to create strong, stable, and secure connections between two tubes at a 90-degree angle, particularly for long runs where direct joining is impractical. Its primary benefit is enabling seamless pipe crossovers without cutting or welding, ensuring structural integrity for applications like racking, handrails, and guardrails. A minor consideration is its specific compatibility with 27mm diameter tubes. Key features include its heavy-duty SG cast iron construction for durability, a hot-dip galvanized and black powder-coated finish for corrosion resistance, and stainless steel grub screws for a secure, tool-free (beyond an Allen key) fit.

FAQs
What is the main advantage of the offset 90° crossover clamp?
The main advantage is its ability to connect two tubes at a 90-degree angle without cutting or welding, particularly useful for long tube runs where joining on both sides of an upright is not feasible. It maintains structural integrity and stability.
What size tubes does this clamp fit?
This clamp is specifically designed for 27mm diameter steel and alloy tubes.
Do I need special tools to install this clamp?
No, installation is straightforward. You only need an Allen key to tighten the stainless steel grub screws. No welding or specialized cutting tools are required.
How does the clamp prevent rust and corrosion?
The clamp features a hot-dip galvanized and black powder-coated finish. This dual coating provides a strong barrier against moisture and UV damage, significantly reducing the risk of rust and corrosion.
Can this clamp be used outdoors?
Yes, the robust construction and protective coating make it suitable for outdoor applications such as carports, benches, and playground equipment.
What is the load-bearing capacity of this clamp?
The clamp is made from heavy-duty SG cast iron, designed to be unbreakable and unbendable, capable of bearing heavy loads without cracking or warping, ensuring stable and wobble-free structures.
Can I adjust or remove the clamp after installation?
Yes, the grub screws allow you to loosen and adjust the clamp's position or remove it entirely if needed, without damaging the pipe. This makes assembly and disassembly easy.
Troubleshooting
Clamp does not secure tube firmly
Ensure the grub screws are fully tightened with an appropriate Allen key. Verify that the tube diameter is indeed 27mm and that the tube surface is free from excessive dirt or debris that could impede grip.
Difficulty aligning tubes for crossing
Loosen the grub screws slightly to allow for minor adjustments. Position the tubes as accurately as possible before re-tightening the screws. The offset design is intended for specific long-run scenarios; ensure it's the correct clamp type for your desired configuration.
Visible damage or rust on the clamp
While highly durable, extreme conditions might cause minor surface blemishes. If structural integrity is compromised, the clamp should be replaced. For cosmetic issues, consult care instructions.
Grub screws are difficult to turn
Ensure you are using the correct size Allen key. If the screws are stiff, a small amount of penetrating oil might help, but clean any excess before use to avoid attracting dirt.
Pros and Cons
Pros
Exceptional durability due to SG cast iron construction.
Superior resistance to rust, corrosion, and environmental damage.
Simplifies complex structures by eliminating the need for cutting or welding.
Quick and secure installation with minimal tools required.
Maintains structural stability under significant load.
Versatile for various DIY and professional construction projects.
Cons
Specific to 27mm diameter tubes; not universally compatible.
Black powder coating, while protective, can be scratched.
Requires an Allen key for tightening/loosening, which is not always included.
Offset design might not be suitable for all aesthetic or space constraints.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility:
This clamp is designed specifically for use with 27mm diameter steel and alloy tubes.
Setup:
Identify the two tubes that need to cross at a 90-degree angle.
Position the offset crossover clamp so that it straddles both tubes at the desired crossing point.
Ensure the clamp is oriented correctly to facilitate the offset crossover.
Insert an Allen key into the stainless steel grub screws on the clamp.
Tighten the grub screws firmly to secure the tubes in place. Do not overtighten.
Care:
Periodically check the grub screws for tightness, especially after initial installation or significant load changes.
Clean the clamp with a damp cloth to remove dust and debris. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the powder coating.
While highly resistant to corrosion, prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals or de-icing salts in extreme environments may eventually affect the finish. Rinse with fresh water if exposed to such substances.
