FAQs

Can I use this for both length and width extensions?

No, this specific joiner is designed for width extensions. You must purchase additional joiner tees to facilitate length extensions.

What is the wall thickness of this connector?

The wall thickness is 4.3mm, providing a robust connection for standard cage frames.

Will this fit plastic pipes?

No, this component is designed specifically for 27mm powder-coated aluminium frames.

Is this connector weather-resistant?

Yes, it is designed for outdoor garden use and features a durable black finish.

What are the exact measurements of the connector?

The connector has an internal diameter of 28.3mm and an outer diameter of 37mm.

Troubleshooting

Tube does not fit into the connector

Ensure your tubing is exactly 27mm in diameter and remove any burrs or excess paint from the end of the aluminium tube.

Joint feels loose after assembly

Check that your frame is aligned at a true 90-degree angle; misalignment can prevent the tube from seating fully into the connector.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable, thick-walled design for long-term outdoor use
  • Perfectly sized for 27mm aluminium frame systems
  • Discreet black finish matches most existing cage aesthetics
  • Provides a stable, rigid intersection point

Cons

  • Only facilitates width expansion; requires separate components for length extension
  • Compatibility limited strictly to 27mm aluminium tubing
  • Non-adjustable design requires precise frame alignment

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, ensure your aluminium poles are free from debris or jagged edges at the cut points. Slide the connector onto the existing 27mm frame until you reach the desired intersection point.

Compatibility Requirements:

| Component | Requirement |

| :--- | :--- |

| Tube Diameter | 27mm |

| Material | Powder-coated Aluminium |

| Usage | Width extension only |

Care instructions involve periodic inspection of the joints after high-wind events to ensure no poles have shifted. You can wipe the joiner with a damp cloth if dirt accumulates in the seam, and the powder-coated finish ensures it will not rust under typical garden conditions.
