Adjustable elbow for pipe 42.4 x 2mm, Satin, 360°

The Strofix adjustable elbow for pipe 42.4 × 2mm, Satin, 360° is an AISI 304 stainless-steel adjustable flush elbow for Ø42.4 × 2 mm railing tube, providing a smooth, variable-angle joint between two tube sections. The elbow is 47 mm high and is supplied in satin finish. Attached using adhesive (elements for pasting included).

The adjustable elbow sleeves over the ends of two Ø42.4 mm tubes and lets the angle between them be set during installation. This suits staircase handrails where the pitch varies between flights, ramp transitions, and any configuration where the tube-to-tube angle is not a standard 90°. The flush design creates a smooth, uninterrupted surface at the joint – the elbow encloses the tube ends internally, so no visible bracket or clamp appears on the outside. Once the desired angle is set, the elbow is fixed in place with the included adhesive. This is the wide-range version; a separate fixed 90° flush elbow and a narrower-range adjustable version are also offered.

Use cases:

• Staircase handrail angle transitions between flights and landings
• Ramp handrail transitions at varying inclines
• Balcony handrail direction changes at non-standard angles
• Any Ø42.4 mm tube-to-tube joint where the angle is not 90°
• Smooth, flush-profile variable-angle handrail connections

FAQ

What tube does this elbow fit?

The Ø42.4 × 2 mm round tube – the standard railing pipe in the Strofix range.

What angle range can it accommodate?

The elbow is adjustable, with a wide range, so the angle between the two tubes can be set during installation to match the pitch or transition. The exact range is set by the elbow's internal geometry.

What does "flush" mean?

The elbow creates a smooth, uninterrupted joint surface – it sleeves over the tube ends internally, so the outside profile is smooth with no visible bracket, clamp, or protruding hardware.

What is the elbow height?

47 mm (H = 47 mm) – the overall dimension of the elbow body.

How is the elbow attached?

It is secured with adhesive: position the two tubes at the desired angle inside the elbow body, then apply the adhesive. The Strofix anaerobic glue (50 mL) is the recommended adhesive.

Is a fixed 90° elbow available?

Yes. A separate flush elbow with a fixed 90° angle is available. Use the fixed version for standard right-angle turns and this adjustable version for staircase pitches and non-standard angles.
