XPC FASTENER THE STEALTH FIXING FOR TUBULAR STRUCTURES JUST PUT IT IN AND TIGHTEN IT UP XPC USES PURE FRICTION TO CREATE A ROBUST, LOAD BEARING END-JOINT IN METAL TUBE
NO PLUGS, RIBS, CLAMPS, U-BOLTS, CRIMPING, FILLING, WELDING, DRILLING, THREADING, FLANGES, THRU-BOLTING, RIVETING, ADHESIVE OR ANY MODIFICATION TO THE TUBE XPC FASTENER HOLDING STRENGTH IS LIMITED ONLY BY THE STRENGTH OF THE TUBE

XPC FASTENER
‘STEALTH’ FIXING FOR TUBE
XPC ADVANTAGE 1 An XPC joint needs no tube threading, drilling, welding, weld-affected zone, no stress raisers, flanges, thru-bolts, hoop bolts, rivets, brackets, filling, adhesives All you need is tube and XPC
XPC ADVANTAGE 2 Predictable strength independent of the length of engagement
XPC ADVANTAGE 3 Quick and simple to fit - tube structures can be create on-site by semi-skilled personnel XPC ADVANTAGE 4
XPC relies only on friction between smooth surfaces only and can be used on materials that are too weak to accept threading
XPC ADVANTAGE 5 XPC disassembly is super-fast, since XPC can be withdrawn as soon as the preload is released and the locking tapers freed off
XPC ADVANTAGE 6 XPC helps in dismantling and overhaul situations - the same hole can be re-used many times
XPC ADVANTAGE 7 XPC is self-centring in the tube and achieves and exceptional level of concentricity
XPC ADVANTAGE 8 XPC will always hold the tube perpendicular to any counterface, no matter what the end face condition of the tube. XPC ADVANTAGE 9 XPC holding strength is more accurately computable and achieved more quickly than any other tube fixing.
XPC ADVANTAGE 10
XPC coatings or treatments on the tapered regions of collar and stud eliminate internal lubrication
XPC ADVANTAGE 11
XPC is totally discrete - tube can be finish plated or painted prior to fabrication, with no requirement for welding
XPC ADVANTAGE 12
XPC is totally discrete - tube can be finish plated or painted prior to fabrication, with no requirement for welding
XPC ADVANTAGE 13 XPC ‘FAILSAFE’ will not break loose from the tube even if the nut is removed
