  • KEE ACCESS: Galvanised cast iron fittings designed for disabled access, compliant with Building Regulations part 'M' and the Equality Act.
Technical Specifications: The catalogue provides detailed technical information, including tube sizes, materials, and coatings. Components are available in various sizes to suit steel tubing to BS EN 10255 standards, with options for galvanised steel, powder coating, and anti-bacterial coatings.
Installation and Assembly: The catalogue includes sections on assembly and installation, load tables, and vibration tests, ensuring that customers can effectively implement the safety systems.
Component Selection: Each fitting is illustrated with size and weight tables, and a unique numerical code reference for easy identification. The catalogue provides guidance on selecting the correct fitting for specific applications.
Engineering Principles: Kee Safety's engineering principles focus on versatility and efficiency, using slip-on components to create rigid tubular structures without the need for welding or threading.
Conclusion: Kee Safety offers a robust and versatile range of safety components, ensuring high standards of safety and quality across various applications. The catalogue serves as a comprehensive guide for selecting and implementing safety solutions.
Specifications: The document outlines the use of combination fittings to optimize the strength-to-weight ratio and cost of structures, allowing for different tube diameters. It specifies loadings up to 1500 N/m and provides loading tables for selecting appropriate tube sizes and grades.
Procedures: Instructions are provided for constructing guardrails on various slopes, including straight and level guardrails, and those on slopes ranging from 0° to 45°. The document includes detailed tables for calculating rail and upright lengths based on the angle of the slope and fitting sizes.
Standards and Compliance: The guardrails comply with BS 7818 Clause 2.4 and other relevant standards such as BS 8118, BS 6180, BS 6399, and BS EN 10255. Kee Klamp fittings are manufactured to BS EN 1562 & BS EN 1563 standards and are hot-dip galvanized to BS EN ISO 1461.
Technical Support: Kee Safety offers technical support via phone, fax, or email to assist with design compliance and other inquiries.
Recommendations: For larger bay sizes than those stated, contact Kee Safety Ltd. The document recommends a set screw torque of 39Nm and highlights the importance of using single fittings for quicker installation and improved aesthetics.
Key Data from Tables: The tables provide dimensions for calculating rail and upright lengths for various slopes and fitting sizes. They also specify the design load criteria for different upright heights and tube sizes, ensuring compliance with safety standards.
Load Tables for Uprights: The document provides load tables for uprights restrained at both ends, with a safety factor of 2. The tables indicate the safe load in kilograms for single tubes used as uprights, based on the limit state of the material, 6082 T6 Aluminium. Loads exceeding 770Kg require consideration of grubscrew slippage.
Vibration Test: An independent laboratory conducted vibration tests on standard size 7 KEE KLAMP fittings. The tests compared standard set screws with self-locking set screws. The assembly was subjected to a resonance search between 25 and 350Hz, with resonant frequencies recorded. No loosening of screws was observed during 24 hours of vibration testing.
Telescopic Relationship: The document outlines the telescopic relationship between tubes according to BS EN 10255 (ISO 65). It specifies which tube sizes can accept others, with some requiring special spigotting material.
General Information: The document includes a disclaimer about the accuracy of the information and the company's right to alter products without notice. It also provides contact information for Kee Safety Ltd.

Specifying Components Selecting Kee Safety Components Every fitting is illustrated and accompanied by a table of sizes and weights. Each fitting has a simple numerical code reference, which is unique and differentiates it from 05 52 00 METAL RAILINGS every other fitting. The code defines the type of fitting and the tube size or sizes it is each letter in the drawing has a corresponding measurement in the table _the single digit following the dash defines the tube size. (Two digits after the dash indicate that the fitting is designed to receive two sizes of tube, and likewise with three digits.)...

Galvanised Iron Components Steel tube is an inherently efficient structural component. It is strong, has no sharp corners, and is readily available worldwide. The difficulty in using steel tube to form structures arises when joining. Threaded tube must be supplied in set lengths making for zero flexibility in installation. Welding is labour intensive, requires a highly skilled workforce, and specialised equipment. The answer is KEE KLAMP components. The underlying principle is simple but highly effective: use slip-on components to create versatile and rigid tubular structures. The KEE KLAMP principle...
