Adjustable Spider Fitting Mounting Base with AISI 304 Bolt for Glass Facades

Adjustable Spider Fitting Mounting Connector for Glass Facade Systems

The adjustable spider fitting mounting connector from AOYU provides a connection between architectural glass spider fittings and flat supporting structures. It combines a galvanized metal base with AISI 304 stainless steel fastening components to support accurate positioning during installation.

Unlike a glass point holder, this connector does not clamp the glass panel directly. Instead, it forms part of the mounting assembly that secures the spider fitting to its supporting surface.

Its compact cylindrical design also helps installers organize the connection hardware within point-supported glazing systems.

Adjustable Mounting Design

Three-Part Connector Assembly

The connector consists of three main components: a mounting base, an adjustment washer, and a fastening screw.

Each component serves a specific function. The base provides the mounting interface, while the screw connects the assembly to the compatible spider fitting. Meanwhile, the adjustment washer helps installers fine-tune the distance between the mounting components.

Together, these parts provide a practical solution for installing spider fittings on suitable flat supports.

Position Adjustment During Installation

Accurate positioning plays an important role in architectural glass installations. Therefore, AOYU designed this connector with an adjustment mechanism that helps installers align the spider fitting.

The supplied product specification lists an adjustment range of up to 10mm.

As a result, installers can make controlled positioning adjustments within the connector's specified range. However, they must still follow the approved installation drawing and structural design.

Compact Cylindrical Base

The connector features a cylindrical base and a layered adjustment assembly.

Additionally, the top fastening component includes a hexagonal socket for tool engagement, as shown in the product image.

This construction provides a compact mounting arrangement for compatible spider glazing hardware.

Galvanized Base and AISI 304 Stainless Steel Components

AOYU combines different materials within this connector to meet its intended mounting function.

The base uses galvanized metal, while the adjustment washer and fastening screw use AISI 304 stainless steel.

The galvanized surface provides a protective coating for the base. Meanwhile, stainless steel components offer corrosion resistance for many general architectural applications.

However, the installation environment can affect material selection. For example, coastal or highly corrosive locations may require additional protection or alternative specifications.

Flat Surface Mounting for Spider Fittings

This spider mounting connector is intended for installation on a suitable flat supporting surface.

First, installers should verify the mounting location and check the supporting structure against the approved project drawings.

Next, they can position the connector and assemble the compatible spider fitting using the specified fastening components.

The adjustment washer then helps fine-tune the connection position. Finally, installers must secure the assembly according to the required fastening procedure and engineering specifications.

Because structural glazing systems transfer loads through several connected components, a qualified engineer should verify the complete assembly before installation.

Applications in Architectural Glazing

Point-Supported Glass Facades

The connector can form part of a point-supported glass facade system that uses spider fittings to connect glass panels to structural supports.

It provides a mounting interface between the spider fitting and the supporting structure.

Commercial Glass Curtain Walls

Contractors can use compatible mounting connectors when installing spider-supported curtain wall assemblies.

Furthermore, the adjustable design helps accommodate positioning requirements within the approved connection arrangement.

Architectural Spider Glazing Systems

This connector also suits projects that require a compact support connection for spider glazing hardware.

Potential applications include commercial entrances, architectural glass walls, and other engineered point-supported glazing structures.

Spider Mounting Connector vs Glass Point Fixing

A spider mounting connector and a glass point fixing perform different functions.

A glass point fixing typically secures a glass panel at an individual fixing hole. In contrast, a spider mounting connector attaches the spider fitting to its supporting structure.

Therefore, installers should not substitute one component for the other.

Instead, they should select each fitting according to its position within the complete glazing system.
