Connector for pipe 42.4 x 2mm, Satin

The Strofix connector for pipe 42.4 × 2mm, Satin is a stainless-steel inline coupler for Ø42.4 × 2 mm round railing tube, available in AISI 304 or AISI 316. It joins two tube sections in a straight line and has a 4 mm height. Satin finish (a polished version is also available). Attached using adhesive (elements for pasting included).

The fitting is an internal sleeve that bridges the joint between two round tube ends meeting in a straight line. The ultra-thin 4 mm profile makes the coupler nearly invisible once installed – the external surface shows only a minimal seam between the two tube sections. It is used wherever a continuous straight run of Ø42.4 mm round tube railing or handrail exceeds the available tube length and must be extended with a joint. The fitting slides into the bore of both tube ends and is secured with adhesive, creating a rigid, straight connection. The AISI 316 grade option suits coastal or high-humidity installations.

Use cases:

• Joining two Ø42.4 mm round tube sections in a straight line
• Extending handrail or top-rail runs beyond a single tube length
• Creating a continuous straight round tube railing without visible joints
• Splicing cut tube sections to reach a precise overall length
• Marine-grade AISI 316 straight tube joint for coastal installations
