It's commonly installed just beneath the crown fitting on wider gable tents, linking perimeter tubing, leg tubing, and vertical rafters at a single flat junction to reinforce the peak from below.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFits standard West Coast style frames from most major manufacturers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy This Flat Tee Matters\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn larger gable tents, the peak fitting alone often isn't enough to keep the structure rigid under wind or fabric tension — a secondary connection point beneath the crown helps carry that load down into the leg and perimeter tubing. This flat tee gives crews that reinforcement point, tying multiple structural members together so stress doesn't concentrate at the crown alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"bt-specs-table\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpec\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.25\" Schedule 40 steel pipe, zinc-plated finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.656\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInside Diameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.38\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWall Thickness\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.14\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTensile Strength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e45,000 PSI\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConnection Points\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4 (perimeter, leg, and vertical rafter tubing at a flat junction)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5.0 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWest Coast style gable frame tent systems\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eShipping Method\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eShips ground\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSKU\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1C-51209\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eInstallation Notes from Our Install Crews\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstall this fitting beneath the crown before final tensioning — trying to slide it in after the roof is up is far more difficult than seating it during initial frame assembly.
