The 8mm Glass Clamp (Middle D Type with Safety Pin) is a premium stainless steel fitting engineered to securely fix glass panels in railing, balustrade, and shower enclosure systems. Designed for 8–10mm glass thickness, this clamp features a robust D-shaped profile that delivers a firm, even grip while maintaining a clean, modern appearance.
Equipped with an integrated safety pin, this glass clamp provides an additional level of protection by preventing accidental glass slippage or disengagement. Available in flat back and radius back options, it adapts seamlessly to both square posts and round tubes, making it a versatile solution for residential and commercial glass railing installations. Manufactured from 304 or 316 stainless steel, the clamp offers excellent corrosion resistance, ensuring long-term performance in indoor, outdoor, and coastal environments.

Q1: Do I need to drill the glass to use this 8mm glass clamp?
A: If you wish to utilize the safety pin feature, a hole must be pre-drilled in the glass panel. However, the clamp can also be used as a standard friction clamp without the pin if the application allows.
Q2: What is the function of the safety pin?
A: The safety pin provides additional mechanical locking, preventing the glass panel from slipping or lifting under impact or vibration.
Q3: What is the difference between the "Small" and "Middle" D-Type clamps?
A: The 8mm Glass Clamp (Middle) has a larger body and a higher load-bearing capacity than the small version. It also includes the internal safety pin, which is typically absent in smaller, light-duty clips.
Q4: Can I use the 38.1mm radius back on a 50.8mm tube?
A: It is not recommended. For a secure, wobble-free installation, the radius of the glass clamp back must match the diameter of your railing tube. We offer specific sizes for both 38.1mm and 50.8mm tubing.
Q5: Which finish is better for outdoor use?
A: Both Satin and Mirror finishes are durable. However, Mirror Polished is often preferred for coastal areas as the smooth surface makes it harder for salt and contaminants to cling to the metal, further reducing the risk of surface rust.
