An Adjustable Glass-to-Glass Connector (SS316) is a more versatile version of your standard 90° or 180° clamps—it allows angle flexibility and fine alignment between glass panels, making it ideal for non-perfect layouts.

Here’s a clean, spec-ready breakdown 👇

🔗 What It Is

An adjustable glass-to-glass connector:

• Connects two glass panels at variable angles (not fixed)

• Typically adjustable from:

  • ~90° up to 180° (sometimes wider ranges)

• Used where:

  • Layout isn’t perfectly square

  • Custom angles or curves exist

• Acts as a stabilizing clamp (non-structural)

Unlike fixed connectors, it lets installers fine-tune panel alignment on-site.

🛠️ Key Features

• Material: SS316 (marine-grade → corrosion-resistant for pool environments)

• Adjustable angle:

  • Commonly 90°–180° range

• Glass compatibility:

  • Typically 10mm–12mm tempered glass

  • Heavy-duty models support up to ~21.5mm laminated glass

• Fixing system:

  • Rubber gaskets + pressure plates

  • Usually no drilling required

• Design types:

  • Slim frameless clamps

  • Swivel / pivot connectors

📐 Typical Specs

• Angle adjustment: ~90° to 180°

• Panel gap: ~10–20 mm

• Placement:

  • Usually top of panels only

• Usage:

  • 1 connector per joint (2 for high-wind areas)

🧱 Installation Basics

• Install after panels are secured in spigots

• Steps:

  1. Position panels

  2. Set desired angle

  3. Tighten clamp screws evenly

• Ensure:

  • Panels are plumb before locking angle

  • Even pressure on both glass sides

👍 Advantages

• Flexible design → handles imperfect layouts

• Reduces need for:

  • Custom-cut glass angles

  • Complex measurements

• Maintains clean frameless aesthetic

• Improves alignment + rigidity

⚠️ Things to Watch

• Not structural → spigots still carry all load

• Moving parts = slightly more maintenance over time

• Must match:

  • Glass thickness

  • Clamp opening range

• Cheap versions (SS304) → corrosion risk near pools

💡 Pro Tip (from real installs)

Use adjustable connectors when:

• Your slab or layout isn’t perfectly square

• You’re doing retrofit installs

But:

• If your layout is perfectly straight → fixed 180° connectors are cleaner and cheaper

🧩 Where It Fits in Your System

This is essentially a “universal connector” upgrade to:

• 180° connector (straight runs)

• 90° connector (corners)

So your system becomes:

1. Spigots (base mount)

2. Hinges (gate)

3. Latch (gate lock)

4. Connectors:

   • Fixed (90° / 180°) or

   • Adjustable (this one)
