Bend – Adjustable Bend Horisontal – Slotted Round – 50.8mm

The 50.8mm Round Slotted Adjustable Bend Horizontal is the solution for corners that don’t conform to a standard 90°. Using a hinge mechanism that pivots on a horizontal axis, this fitting allows the angle between two slotted tube runs to be adjusted freely from left to right — covering the full range from a gentle obtuse turn to a sharp corner — before settling into position once both tube ends are inserted.

This fitting is particularly useful on irregular deck perimeters, angled balcony edges, and any installation where the building structure dictates a non-standard corner angle. Rather than fabricating a custom solution or forcing a standard 90° bend where it does not fit, the adjustable horizontal bend gives you the exact angle you need with no additional tools or fixings required.

As with all slotted fittings, the glass slot terminates at the fitting — providing a clean end point for glass panels on both sides of the corner. Use neutral-cure silicone or clear rubber gaskets when fitting against glass panels for a secure, rattle-free installation.

Which Grade Should I Choose?

Grade 304 is strong and reliable, suited to internal applications and external use in non-coastal, non-corrosive environments — ideal for inland areas such as Johannesburg, Pretoria, and most non-coastal suburbs.

Grade 316 (Marine Grade) offers superior corrosion resistance and is the essential choice for coastal properties, poolside installations, and any environment exposed to salt air, moisture, or chemicals. If you are in Cape Town, the Winelands, Durban, or any coastal area, Grade 316 is strongly recommended.

Installation Note

Always match your fitting grade and finish to your slotted tubing for a consistent, professional result. When fitting against glass panels, use neutral-cure silicone or clear rubber gaskets — avoid acetoxy (acid-cure) silicone as it can stain stainless steel.
