Bend – Adjustable Bend Vertical – Slotted Round – 25.4mm

The 25.4mm Round Slotted Adjustable Bend Vertical allows a 25.4mm round slotted top rail to transition smoothly from a flat run onto a raking staircase — or back again at the bottom — without any site cutting or welding. The hinge pivots on a vertical axis, adjusting up and down to match the exact pitch of the staircase before the tube ends are engaged on both sides.

The 25.4mm profile keeps the transition fitting slim and unobtrusive, which is particularly important on staircases where the fitting sits at eye level and is closely inspected. A well-fitted vertical bend at the top and bottom of a staircase run is one of the most visible details of the entire installation, and this fitting ensures it looks precise and intentional rather than improvised.

The glass slot terminates at the fitting on both sides of the transition.

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.
