The 50.8mm Round Long Radius Bend creates a smooth, gradual curve between two runs of 50.8mm round stainless steel tube, producing a flowing, sweeping corner rather than the sharp angle of a fixed mitre. The fitting slides onto the open ends of both tubes — no tools, fixings, or adhesive required — and the long radius arc of the bend transitions the two tube runs into each other with a gentle, elegant curve.
The long radius bend is the preferred choice where the design calls for a softer, more organic quality at corners — particularly on curved or free-form deck perimeters, poolside balustrades, and contemporary residential designs where sharp corners would feel at odds with the overall aesthetic. It is also a more comfortable profile for handrails where the hand naturally follows the curve of the rail around a corner.
As a purely design-driven choice — the fixed mitre and long radius bend both join the same tube profiles at the same angles — the decision between the two comes down entirely to the visual and tactile character of the finished installation.
