Elbow for rod 12mm, Satin, 90°

The Strofix elbow for rod 12mm, Satin, 90° is an AISI 304 stainless-steel fixed 90° elbow that joins two sections of Ø12 mm solid rod at a right angle. Unlike the adjustable rod elbow, the angle is fixed at 90°. Finished in satin.

This fixed elbow is sized for Ø12 mm solid bar — the crossbar/infill rod used in railing infills and balustrade frames — rather than for hollow tube. With its angle set at a fixed 90°, it is the simpler, lower-cost choice for square corners where no angle adjustment is needed, while the adjustable Ø12 mm rod elbow covers variable angles for raked runs. It joins two rod ends into a clean right-angle turn.

Use cases:

• Joining two Ø12 mm solid rods at a fixed 90° corner
• Right-angle turns in rod infill or crossbar frames
• Square corners in a Ø12 mm rod balustrade where no angle adjustment is needed
• Lower-cost fixed-angle alternative to the adjustable rod elbow
• Stainless-steel 90° elbow for solid railing rod

FAQ

What does this elbow fit?

Ø12 mm solid rod (bar) — not hollow tube.

What angle does it form?

A fixed 90° right angle. For variable angles, use the adjustable Ø12 mm rod elbow instead.

How does it differ from the adjustable rod elbow?

This elbow is fixed at 90° and is lower in price; the adjustable version lets the angle be set on site for raked runs. Choose the fixed elbow for square corners.

How does it differ from the tube elbows?

The tube elbows (40 × 40 square and Ø42.4 round) join hollow railing tube. This elbow is sized for Ø12 mm solid rod used in infills and crossbar frames.

What steel grade and finish are used?

AISI 304 stainless steel with a satin finish.

About Elbows & Connectors

Elbows and connectors are stainless-steel joint fittings that link two sections of handrail or railing tube at a change of direction, creating a continuous, seamless-looking rail line around corners, up staircases and across straight joints. Flush elbows and angles slip over the tube ends and produce a smooth, weld-free joint on the visible surface; welding variants are permanently fused for a rigid connection.

Strofix supplies 15 elbow and connector products for Ø42.4 mm round pipe and 40×40 mm flat square tube, including fixed 90° flush angles, adjustable flush elbows (with one variant covering 0–70°), cross flush angles, tee ("T") connectors, tee corner connectors, inline fittings and welding flush angles — all in AISI 304 stainless steel with a satin finish, with AISI 316 and polished options on selected variants.

The correct fitting depends on tube profile, the angle of the direction change, the number of tube arms meeting at the joint and whether a screwable or welded connection is required.
