Glossary

EMT - Electrical metallic Tubing, 3/4” and 1” tubing.

FLAT FITTINGS - ¾”, 1”, 1 3/8” & 1 5/8” silver fittings are made of steel tubing. Fabrication of all connections are welded. All fittings have ¼” eyebolts. All fittings are silver zinc plated. Angle of 90 degrees.

PEAK ROOF FITTINGS - ¾”, 1”, 1 3/8” & 1 5/8” silver fittings are made of steel tubing. Fabrication of all connections are welded. All fittings have ¼” eyebolts. All fittings are silver zinc plated. Angle of 102 degrees.

BENT FITTINGS - 1 3/8” & 1 5/8” fittings are made of steel tubing. Fabrication method: main member is bent. Arms are welded. All fittings are silver zinc plated. High peak fittings have no eyebolts. Corner center angle is 120 degrees. Medium peak fittings have 5/16” eyebolts. Corner angle is 106 degrees.

Fittings are made specifically to accept readily-available EMT conduit (in ¾” or 1” sizes). Conduit is measured through ID, inside diameter.

For 1 3/8” or 1 5/8”, fence tubing is recommended.

ANGLE FITTINGS

Peak Type Degree  Fitting Size  Remarks
Low Peak 102 or 106 ¾” , 1”, 1 3/8” and 1 5/8”  Roof line slants at 12 degrees from horizontal plane
Medium Peak 110 ¾” , 1”, 1 3/8” and 1 5/8”  Roof line slants at 16 degrees from horizontal plane
High Peak 120 ¾” , 1”, 1 3/8” and 1 5/8”  Roof line slants at 30 degrees from horizontal plane

- For structural stability and overall strength for low peak and medium peak canopies, a center leg is recommended for canopies that span 16’ or more.

High Peak canopies have no center leg. The structural stress is transferred to the outside leg.

HEAVY DUTY TARPAULINS - Heavy duty polyethylene tarpaulin, ultra-violet treated; 12x14 weave count (1,200 denier). Laminated both sides(4 play lamination). Totally sun blocked. Reinforced corners. Grommets approximately 18” apart. Finished tarp size is approximately 6”-8” shorter in length and width. Tarpaulin sits within frame and is attacked to frame with bungee cords, similar to a trampoline effect.

BUNGEE CORDS - 3/16” nylon covered elastic cord with plastic ball on one end; used to attach tarp to pipe frame.
