2-1/2" x 1-5/8" Line Rail Clamp For Chain Link Fences
2-1/2" x 1-5/8" Line Rail Clamp For Chain Link Fences
Composed of galvanized steel, this line rail clamp is a must-have for building a chain link fence. The purpose of this fitting is to attach two separate horizontal rails to the same vertical fence post—the whole forming a four-way, cross-shaped apparatus. If you are building any kind of sports fencing, greenhouse, dog kennel—or anything that requires bottom and mid bracing—this line rail clamp is an essential purchase.
To install the 2-1/2" x 1-5/8" Steel Line Rail Clamp to your chain link fence, slide the large, circular gap over your fence post and secure it in place with nuts and bolts (sold separately). The "arms" of the clamp will hold the line rails in place. In addition to being sturdy and long-lasting, the steel from which this clamp is made is resistant to rust. This is useful for boosting not only fence longevity but also safety. Especially for sports fence panels, which are perpetually exposed to the elements and frequently touched by players as well as spectators.
