Micro Railbolt Connector
Perfect for joining thin or narrow handrails end to end or a horizontal handrail to a newel post. The open channel housing allows you to drop the housing over the shaft for easy thread engagement. Screwing in the threaded section is simple using a spanner. The mechanism requires only a 19mm diameter housing for best results (15mm minimum) and a 4mm hex key for tensioning.
To use a Micro Railbolt Connector, follow these steps:
- Measure and Mark:
Measure and mark the locations on the handrail and the post or wall where you will install the connector. - Drill Holes:
Drill precise holes at the marked locations using the appropriate drill bit size for the micro railbolt. - Position the Connector:
Insert the Micro Railbolt Connector into the drilled holes in the handrail and post, ensuring it aligns correctly. - Insert the Bolt:
Thread the bolt through the connector and tighten it with a wrench or screwdriver, securing the connector in place. - Check Alignment:
Ensure the handrail is properly aligned and securely fastened. Adjust if necessary to ensure a snug fit. - Finalize Installation:
Verify that the connection is tight and stable. Make any final adjustments to ensure the handrail is securely attached and looks seamless.
By following these steps, you effectively use the Micro Railbolt Connector to secure a handrail to a post or wall, achieving a strong and discreet connection.
