Glass clamp 45x45mm, Satin, 42.4

The Strofix glass clamp 45×45 mm for Ø42.4 tube is a stainless-steel glass panel holder designed for mounting on Ø42.4 mm round railing post tubes. The clamp measures 45 × 45 × 26 mm (L × H × depth) and holds glass panels from 4 to 10.76 mm thick. The distance between the mounting surface and the glass panel is 20 mm. Available in AISI 304 or AISI 316 with a satin finish. Without supporter. Attached by screwing.

The curved back face of the clamp wraps around the Ø42.4 mm tube surface for a secure fit. The 45 × 45 mm body provides the standard glass clamp size on round tube posts, offering a wider glass range than the compact 30 × 30 mini clamp (which tops out at 8 mm). Glass thickness options include thin tempered glass (4 mm), standard tempered glass (6, 8, 10 mm), and laminated safety glass (8.76, 10.76 mm). This is the tube-mount equivalent of the 45 × 45 flat satin clamp, sharing the same body dimensions and standoff distance but with a curved back instead of a flat back. AISI 304 is suitable for standard installations; AISI 316 provides higher chloride resistance for coastal or exposed environments.

Use cases:

• Glass balustrade panels on Ø42.4 mm round railing post tubes
• Standard-size tube-mount glass clamp for 4–10.76 mm glass panels
• Residential and commercial glass railing systems with round tube posts
• Upgrading from the 30 × 30 mini clamp when thicker glass (8.76–10.76 mm) is needed
• Coastal installations requiring AISI 316 tube-mount glass clamps

FAQ

What glass thicknesses are supported?

The clamp accepts glass from 4 to 10.76 mm: tempered glass (4, 6, 8, 10 mm) and laminated safety glass (8.76, 10.76 mm). Select the matching rubber gasket in the dropdown.

What tube does this clamp mount on?

The clamp mounts on the Ø42.4 mm round railing post tube. The back face is curved to match the tube surface.

How does this compare to the 30×30 mini tube clamp?

The 30 × 30 handles 4–8 mm glass with a 12 mm standoff in AISI 304 only. This 45 × 45 extends the glass range to 10.76 mm (including laminated), provides a 20 mm standoff, and offers AISI 304/316. Choose the 30 × 30 for thin glass in a compact format; choose this 45 × 45 for laminated glass and AISI 316 availability.

How does this compare to the 45×45 flat clamp?

Both share the same 45 × 45 × 26 mm body and 20 mm standoff. The difference is the mounting surface: this product has a curved back for Ø42.4 round tubes; the flat version has a flat back for walls and square posts. The tube-mount version also includes 4 mm glass support.

Which steel grades are available?

AISI 304 and AISI 316. Choose AISI 316 near the sea, around outdoor pools or where de-icing salt is used.

Does this include support?

No. This clamp does not include a safety support bracket. For the tube-mount version with support, see the 45 × 45 with support for Ø42.4 in the Strofix Glass clamps category.

About Glass Clamps for Pipe

A glass clamp for pipe is a stainless-steel bracket with a curved back profiled to sit flush against a round post, gripping a glass panel along its edge without requiring a drilled hole. The curved saddle wraps around the tube circumference, and the front half clamps the glass with rubber inserts that cushion the contact and accommodate the panel thickness.

Strofix supplies pipe-mount glass clamps in seven body sizes – from the compact 30 × 30 mm mini clamp through 40 × 50, 45 × 45 and 45 × 63 mm to the larger 52 × 52, 55 × 55 and 55 × 65 mm bodies – all profiled for Ø42.4 mm round tube, in AISI 304 or AISI 316 stainless steel with satin or polished finishes.

Clamps marked "With support" have a security plate and safety pin under the glass edge; the others hold the glass by clamping pressure alone. The correct clamp depends on glass thickness, body size, steel grade and whether a support is needed.
