The Flexus version of the Clamex P-14/10 connector features flexible positioning pins in place of the rigid torsion tabs found on the standard Clamex. This feature allows the workpiece components to be slid and 'snapped' into place since the tabs retract until they find their mating half. Assembling some of the very most-challenging applications are possible with Flexus. The Flexus is packaged with a 14mm size male half along with a 10mm Medius female half, but like any other Clamex connector it is interchangeable with the female halves of the Clamex P-14 and P-10 as well. Uses Zeta P2 depth setting of 14 for the cam lock half and 10 for the receiving half.
Description
- Operates just like a Clamex P-14/10 Medius connector, except that the new flexible positioning pins allow for easy assembly in hard-to-reach applications
- Pins are rigid enough to align the workpiece and keep it in position prior to engaging the cam lock
- Beveled shape of the pins allow for easy installation and removal in “tilt-in” scenarios
- Flexus is packaged with 14mm male half and 10mm Medius female half, but may also be used with the Clamex P-14 and P-10 receivers as well
Benefits
- Minimal installation depth for material as thin as 13mm (1/2") for surface or corner joints
- Detachable miter connector for 30-180° angles in material thickness of at least 19mm (3/4")
- Nearly invisible with its 6mm tool opening
- Fast tool-free installation of connectors
- Stackable for transport with connectors pre-installed
- Flexible positioning pins allows for a wide variety of installation options
Applications
Developed in part to address some of the applications found in the US cabinet and closet industries, some of the main applications for this connector will be:
- Complex field-assembled pieces
- Top-loading cabinet box shelf connections
- L-shaped pantry or closet shelving
- Die-wall connections for cabinets and countertops
- 5-sided mitered box construction.
