Product Description

The Kee Lite L46 is a dual-purpose aluminium fitting designed to connect three tubes at a 90-degree angle. Its clever combination of a socket tee and crossover fitting makes it an efficient solution for assembling strong, lightweight structures while reducing the number of components needed. Manufactured from high-quality aluminium, it offers excellent corrosion resistance, making it ideal for both indoor and outdoor use.

Optimised for Racking & Storage Systems

The L46 Combination Socket Tee & Crossover is commonly used in racking systems to securely join horizontal carrying rails to vertical uprights. The socket allows for an additional horizontal tie across the section, ensuring a stable and rigid structure.

  • For shelved racking, the horizontal tube is typically positioned outside the upright to provide maximum support and ease of access.
  • For pallet racking, the carrying rails are usually placed inside the upright to enhance stability and weight distribution.

Key Benefits & Features

  • Lightweight & Strong: Made from durable aluminium, offering high strength while being significantly lighter than steel alternatives.
  • Corrosion-Resistant: The aluminium-magnesium-silicon alloy ensures longevity in various environments, including warehouses, workshops, and outdoor installations.
  • Streamlined Assembly: Reduces the need for multiple fittings, simplifying the building process. No welding or specialist tools required—tightens securely with a standard hex key.
  • Versatile Applications: Ideal for racking, handrails, shelving, modular structures, and industrial storage solutions.
  • Professional Finish: The smooth aluminium design provides a modern, clean look, making it suitable for commercial and retail displays.
