About the #3
The #3 elbow turns a clean right-angle corner where two pipe ends meet. It's the fitting at the top corners of most railings and the corners of table, cart and display frames, anywhere a run needs to change direction without a weld.
Like every Nu-Rail® fitting, it's cast from corrosion-resistant 535 aluminum-magnesium alloy and locks onto standard pipe with set screws. No welding, no threading, just a hex key. Loosen the screws and you can reposition it or take the whole structure apart later.
Where it's used
- Top corners of handrails and guardrails
- Corners of tables, benches and carts
- Display, sign and shelving frames
- Gate frames
Sizes & options
