The reduction sleeve concept of the RK Light Clamps tube connectors
RK Light Clamps - the plastic tube connector system gives you maximum flexibility with its reducing bush concept. The lightweight tube clamps are suitable for all applications with low mechanical loads. They are also resistant to corrosion aggressive substances.
The reducing bushes allow you to clamp different tube cross-sections and diameters. This means that switching to a different diameter or cross-section (round or square tube) only requires the reducing bush to be changed. The base element of the tube clamps remains in place.
RK Rose+Krieger offers the light tube connectors in two sizes: 10-18 mm and 20-30 mm. The base diameter can be variably adjusted using reducing bushes. This means that different cross sections (round and square tube) and tube diameters can be clamped.
1. Round tube
2. Reducing bush with the elements closed
3. Clamping elements (here: Type KVR)
4. Reducing insertion piece for spherical shells
5. Profile or rectangular tube
Clamp connectors combine attractive design with functionality
Besides their attractive design and the intelligent system of reducing bushes the clamping elements are characterised especially by their resistance to chemicals. They are particularly appropriate for sensitive applications under laboratory conditions and for industrial applications as, for instance, in the beverage or packing industry.
Optionally equipped with High-Speed-Steel screws, RK LightClamps can also be used in the food industry and in wet areas, e. g. the beverage industry.

NEW: Tube connectors with ball joint in size 18
K Rose+Krieger is expanding its product range of aluminium (Solid Clamps) and plastic (Light Clamps) tube connectors to include a total of seven clamping elements with a size 18 ball joint.
All the new ball clamps have a universal connecting plate that can be rotated 360° to ensure flexible connection and feature two slotted holes and two threads. The connecting plates’ pivoting range is 60° in each case. The clamping elements can be freely adjusted and easily fixed. This makes them ideal for the construction of flexible tube structures, as well as for mounting sensors, reflectors and other elements that need to be precisely aligned or readjusted more frequently, depending on the production requirements and product. A special surface coating on the ball joint makes for a high-strength clamping connection.
- Features:
- can be pivoted freely by 60°/can be rotated 360°
- can be combined with size 18 and 30 tube connectors
- the clamps feature a universal connecting plate for flexible integration
- high-strength clamping thanks to special finishes
