Description
Additional information

The 50.8mm Round Slotted Tube Connector is used wherever two lengths of 50.8mm round slotted top rail need to be joined end to end. The connector slides into the open end of both tubes simultaneously, bridging the gap between them and creating a seamless, flush joint that is virtually invisible once in place.

This is a necessary fitting on any run longer than a single 5.8m tube length, or where a tube has been cut to length and the offcut is used to complete the run. Without a connector, the joint between two tube ends is a visible gap that interrupts the clean line of the top rail and can create a weak point in the system. The tube connector eliminates both problems in a single, simple fitting.

No bolts, screws, or adhesive are required — the connector holds the two tube ends in alignment by its fit within both profiles, keeping the rail straight, level, and continuous.

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 connector grade and finish to your slotted tubing for a consistent, professional result.
