Terminal cross connector 1-hole 45×45 mm galvanized ELKO-BIS 55.1 OC

ELKO-BIS 55.1 OC is a galvanized, single-hole terminal cross connector sized 45×45 mm designed to join structural profiles or framing elements at perpendicular intersections. Constructed from corrosion-resistant steel with a single fastening hole, this connector enables a compact mechanical connection for metal framing, racks, supports and other load-bearing assemblies where a right-angle junction is required.

Advantages

The galvanized surface provides long-term corrosion resistance suitable for indoor and sheltered outdoor installations. The compact 45×45 mm footprint enables use in tight framing arrangements and helps maintain alignment at right-angle joints. The single-hole design simplifies installation by allowing fixation with a bolt or screw while preserving structural integrity and reducing the number of parts required for the connection.

Suitable for

• Joining metal profiles at 90° intersections
• Assembly of industrial racks and shelving frames
• Construction of supports, braces and small structural frameworks
• Repair and reinforcement of existing metal framing

Key specifications

• Material: galvanized steel for corrosion protection
• Shape: terminal cross connector, one through-hole
• Dimensions: 45 × 45 mm footprint
• Fastening: single hole suitable for bolt or screw mounting
• Application: mechanical perpendicular joint for profiles and framing elements

How to use

Position the connector at the perpendicular joint of the profiles so that the faces align flush with the connected members. Insert an appropriately sized bolt or screw through the single hole and tighten to the torque recommended for the chosen fastener and profile thickness. Ensure mating surfaces are clean and properly supported during tightening to maintain correct alignment and load distribution. If used outdoors, verify that the galvanizing and fastener materials are compatible to avoid galvanic corrosion.

Usage recommendations

Choose a bolt or screw whose diameter and length match the hole and the combined thickness of the profiles. For structural applications, use grade-appropriate fasteners and follow applicable load and safety standards. Inspect connections periodically for corrosion, loosening or deformation and replace fasteners if wear is detected.
