T joints are essential key clamp fittings used to connect two or three tubes in a T-shape, often at 90 degrees. These galvanised fittings are widely used in handrails, furniture, and industrial frameworks. At Keyclampshop, we offer a wide range of key clamps including high-quality T joints for indoor and outdoor use.
T joints in different types
A key clamp T-joint features 3 sturdy openings that allows for a strong and stable connection between tubes. The zinc coating protects against corrosion, UV exposure, and humidity, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.
In our webshop, you'll find T joints in various sizes to match our tubes. We also offer variations such as short T joints, long T joints, and adjustable T joints. If you're looking to make 90-degree connections, we also stock a range of elbow fittings, perfect for building frames or furniture corners.
Building with a Tee joint
There are two main types of T-joint fittings: the short tee and the long tee. While they may look similar, they serve different construction needs.
The short tee allows one continuous tube to pass through, with a second tube connecting at a 90-degree angle. This means two tubes are inserted into the fitting. In contrast, the long tee is designed to connect three tubes, one from each end and one from the side, forming a full 3-way junction.
Understanding the difference helps you choose the right fitting for your project, whether you're building a handrail, a shelving unit, or an industrial-style table frame.
