Hollaender Speed Rail Fittings for Pipe and Fitting Based Structures

Hollaender Speed-Rail slip-on fittings make building pipe and fitting structures a simple task, perfect for handrails, guardrails, and bleachers.

High-speed rail (HSR) refers to train lines capable of moving at faster speeds than traditional railways, including dedicated tracks or upgraded networks of tracks.

There are various definitions of HSR, including:

Versatility

Speed-Rail’s structural slip-on fittings can be used to build various tubular structure systems such as guardrails and safety rails – or other pipe/fitting-based structures – used in commercial, industrial, public works, and residential applications – effectively making this system highly versatile and endlessly adaptable.

HM’s aluminum structural tube fittings offer an effective alternative to welding and threading for fabricating pipe structures. Available in various configurations, sizes, and shapes to meet the design requirements of your project, these fittings also provide significant cost savings over welded systems while offering easy reconfiguration or modifications as needed.

One of the most popular uses for these versatile pipe fittings is creating tubular solar racks capable of withstanding extreme wind loads found in coastal regions. To do this, HM provides special fittings such as elbows and tees, which can accept two-inch IPS pipes for heavier load-bearing capacity.

These fittings feature both internal and external reverse-knurl cup-point set screws to increase pipe holding power significantly and resist loosening and pullout. Furthermore, having two sets screws provides approximately 110% more pullout resistance than a standard 14-inch hex screw.

HM also offers a selection of standard aluminum fittings explicitly designed for light-duty applications like furniture and retail racks, making installation effortless without needing welding equipment or special tools. Furthermore, these fittings can be combined with black iron pipe or galvanized steel pipes – offering additional versatility.

Lightweight aluminum structural slip-on fittings offer great versatility when it comes to designing and building railing, storage systems, warehouse shelving, carts, racks, and more. Their light weight also makes them suitable for projects requiring frequent reconfiguration such as retail store fixtureturing – these fittings can be assembled and dismantled using one wrench; plus, there is an array of eye-catching powder coating options that offer corrosion resistance as well as aesthetic value.

Corrosion Resistance

Slip-on fittings made of aluminum, galvanized steel, stainless steel, and black iron can be found used with pipe to build an array of unique modular structures across hundreds of installations in the US. These pipe and fitting-based systems meet virtually every project design requirement while being more cost-effective than welded systems; they are especially beneficial in solar racking installations that often must cope with extreme wind loads, wastewater treatment plants, power generation facilities, and bridge decks.

Speed-Rail fittings’ superior corrosion resistance stems from their manufacturing process, which incorporates state-of-the-art metallurgical engineering and casting technology for casting the highest quality alloy into every structural fitting. A proprietary set screw secures each fitting directly onto its pipe surface, creating an unbreakable bond with guaranteed electrical continuity and grounding, further reducing installation costs by eliminating additional bonding components or devices.

These slip-on structural fittings are fabricated using aluminum alloy 535, the most corrosion-resistant casting aluminum available. Sand casting makes these speed rail fittings even more accessible to install, while their bright finish adds visual appeal and corrosion protection. With superior corrosion resistance combined with inherent high strength and ease of installation, speed rail fittings have quickly become the go-to choice for projects across various industries, such as solar racking, water treatment facilities, bridge construction projects, industrial safety applications, and other demanding tasks.

Speed-Rail fittings differ from other structural pipe fittings in that their assembly doesn’t involve nuts, bolts, and messy adhesives; rather than this traditional approach using nuts, bolts, and messy adhesives for assembly, they use only hex wrenches for assembly. This eliminates the use of costly and environmentally hazardous fasteners while decreasing installation time significantly and eliminating welding as a labor and material cost-saving strategy. Furthermore, their unique flange attachment system also allows servicing or inspection to occur more quickly due to removable bolts, which hold onto them for servicing or inspection as needed!

Also, the hex bolts are concealed within the flange for easy installation of various bolt sizes without needing to disconnect them from the piping. This feature enables installers to utilize one set of hex bolts to attach multiple accessories like hose clamps or electrical conduit clips without changing out components every time.

Durability

Structural pipe fittings offer a more durable alternative than welded systems. They are made of aluminum alloy 535, which is corrosion-resistant and comes with several attractive powder coating colors to increase safety and eye appeal. Assembling them quickly makes structural pipe fittings ideal for environments that need fast modifications.

Hollaender Manufacturing’s state-of-the-art captive foundry utilizes cutting-edge metallurgical engineering and casting technology to fabricate fittings that meet any design specification. Casts are then machined, anodized, and powder-coated prior to being shipped out for final assembly.

#5E Tee Fittings are designed to join two Speed-Rail pieces at 90o, featuring a set screw on top that secures itself into frame tubing for pinning purposes. Ideal for creating adjustable cross bars and joints across various applications – such as creating sneeze guards, workspace barriers, or cashier shields to maintain social distance and physical separation; easily modified on-demand mechanical fastening provides extra safety in dynamic environments.

These structural slip-on fittings offer high performance with diverse applications in industries like food/beverage, healthcare/hospitality, and film/theater. Their varied applications span amusement parks to playgrounds, warehouses, and racking systems, engineered specifically to resist corrosion resistance over long-term usage in harsh industrial environments.

These fittings are constructed from high-grade aluminum and stainless steel components for optimal performance, coming in various sizes that can quickly be joined together using only essential tools. Their high level of corrosion resistance withstands exposure to chemicals or harsh substances – providing an excellent alternative to more costly welded steel options with similar durability at much more reasonable costs.

Installation

Hollaender Speed-Rail structural slip-on fittings are simple to install, saving both time and money over welded steel railing. This is particularly advantageous in projects requiring significant field fabrication – since their unique design eliminates nuts, bolts, and washers, as well as eliminating costly welding processes.

Speed-rail fittings are cost-effective alternatives to shipping welded components. Furthermore, installation is quick and straightforward, using only essential tools such as a saw and hex key – only two tools are needed! They come in various sizes for various applications, making them cost-effective solutions for solar panel racking systems, raft frames, playgrounds, etc.

Speed-rail fittings constructed of aluminum alloy 535 feature an innovative design that allows them to attach securely with pipes and bracing without the need for special tools or adhesives, thanks to an incorporated set screw that penetrates both pipe and aluminum fittings forming an electrically continuous bond that’s both strong and durable. Furthermore, these fittings are UL 2703 approved, so installers can often meet local electrical inspector requirements without incurring extra costs by purchasing bonding components or taking other preventive safety measures.

Speed-Rail fittings come in an assortment of forms, including tees and elbows commonly used to form adjustable cross assemblies. Furthermore, these fittings can be drilled and pinned to create adjustable foot bars for raft frames or support equipment; moreover, they are frequently chosen as the frame of Dana dolly systems.
