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 (L10, L15, L20, L25 etc.).
Alongside the Type number is a code (6, 7, 8
or 9) relating to the outside diameter of the tube/pipe for which the Kee Lite Fitting had
been designed. The relationship between the Kee Lite tube/pipe reference and standard
tube/pipe outside diameter is explained in the aforementioned chart.
Example: (1) A L10-7 is a Type L10 Kee Lite
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 L25-9 is a Type L25 Kee Lite fitting with
all three sockets designed to accept a tube/pipe that has an outside diameter of 2
3/8" (2" Nominal Pipe Size).
While Kee Lite can give a general guidance
relating to the use of each Kee Lite 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 Lite construction is being secured, is of sufficient
strength to support both the self weight of the Kee Lite construction and the imposed
loads applied, including wind loads, snow loads, and any other superimposed loads.
