Specifying Kee Klamp Fittings
The information on fittings in this site is comprehensive, and because of the coding
system we have adopted, easy to use.
Diagrams are shown for each fitting showing
entry of tube/pipe, a table of dimensions and a definition of use adjacent to its
appropriate Type number (10, 15, 20, 25 etc.).
Alongside the Type number is a code (4, 5, 6,
7, etc.) relating to the outside diameter of the tube/pipe for which the Kee Klamp had
been designed. The relationship between the Kee Klamp tube/pipe reference and standard
tube/pipe outside diameter is explained in the aforementioned chart.
Example: (1) A 10-7 is a Type 10 Kee Klamp
fitting with both sockets designed to accept a tube/pipe that has an outside diameter of 1
5/8" (1 1/4" Nominal Pipe Size). (2) A 25-9 is a Type 25 Kee Klamp fitting with
all three sockets designed to accept a tube/pipe that has an outside diameter of 2
3/8" (2" Nominal Pipe Size).
Where more than one tube/pipe reference is
shown alongside a particular Type number, it indicates that the individual sockets are
designed to accept different sizes of tube/pipe. In a multi-digit code number the first
figure relates to the 'A' socket and the second to the 'B' socket. Example (3) A 45-76 is
a Type 45 Kee Klamp fitting with 'A' socket accepting a tube/pipe that has an outside
diameter of 1 5/8", and a 'B' socket accepting a tube/pipe that has an outside
diameter of 1 5/16".
While Kee Klamp can give a general guidance
relating to the use of each Kee Klamp fitting detailed in this site, the nature of the
product means that the ultimate responsibility for selecting the correct fitting for an
application must lie with the customer.
The customer should also ensure that the
existing structure to which the Kee Klamp construction is being secured, is of sufficient
strength to support both the self weight of the Kee Klamp construction and the imposed
loads applied, including wind loads, snow loads, and any other superimposed loads.
