Free 90° pipe bend
The free bend creates a 90-degree angle without threaded ends. The pipe is inserted and secured with a locking screw instead of being screwed into the bend itself. This provides a different installation option than a traditional threaded fitting.
This installation method makes it possible to build closed shapes, such as squares, without needing a joining fitting to close the structure. Use the free bend in custom furniture, shelving, and other projects where the corner assembly affects the shape.
Build a closed frame with visible corners
Sketch out a square frame and use the free bends to form the corners. When the pipes are secured rather than threaded into the bends, you have a different way to plan the final connection. Let the frame's construction show and become part of a personalized piece of furniture with an industrial character.
