INSImport Canopy Fittings Kit Low Peak Frame Carport Connectors, Full Set for 6, 8, 10 Legs, Choose Size (for 6 Legs)

I had a canopy I bought back in 1991 and lost a piece on a camping trip. This is the first set I’ve seen that was as good as the one lost. Always nice to have backup.

the angles on these connectors were slightly different than the rusted connectors on my Shelterlogic carport. It all worked out in the end. With 100 dollars' worth of new connectors, I hope to get another year or two out of my 400 dollar, 4-year-old carport.

Made of ample gauge and quality of steel. Pre-drilled screw/rivet holes to hold it all together would be a HUGE plus. I pre-drilled the fittings and used self-tapping screws to secure the poles to the fittings after it was up. I was very impressed with the appearance and craftsmanship of the welds (didn't look like pigeon poop and had full even beads around every joint.) After much investigation and procrastination I decided to anchor it to the ground as shown in the plan sketch. I didn't pour the concrete in the holes until it was completely erected, which made aligning the vertical side poles ease. Just waiting for my tarp to arrive !!NOTE: Horizontal pipes between "B" 4-way fittings on sides and roof center line can slide through fitting, which saves quite a few pipe cuts. (I went with 16' deep so I only needed to cut (6) pipes to 8' length for the horizontal sides and roof peak.)

The media could not be loaded. I bought the Canopy Fittings Kit Low Peak Frame Carport Connectors 10 leg set. The Fittings work with 1-3/8" and 1-5/8" chainlink top rail. The 1-3/8" is a loose fit, but seems to work ok. If you run the 1-3/8" completly through a fitting, sometimes you will need to file the welds so the pipe will slide all the way through. The 1-5/8" fits perfectly over the outside of the fittings. In the picture where I point out the 1-5/8" pipe, look at the fitting. The pipe fits real nicely over the outside diamenter, of the fitting. The picture where the 1-3/8" pipe is labeled, the pipe goes continuously through the fitting. The 1-3/8" pipe does not have to go all the way through. I did this because I can with a liittle filing of the weld. The distance that both sizes of pipe either go over or inside the fitting is anywhere from 4-1/8" to 4-5/16" unless you are able to slide the pipe through if able. The pipe fittings measure 1.384" inside dia. The outside dia measures 1.515". The 1-3/8" top rail made by Everbuilt I used measures 1.3155" ID. The 1-5/8" top rail I used measures 1.532" ID and 1.6650" OD.

Outstanding service my order came missing one of the corners and with a quick email I had the piece in just a couple of days!! The connectors are quality with great welds and clean finish. 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

The center parts broke after being put up for one week

Set up is easy but once up as you can see in the photos the legs bend in which I’m more than sure they should be going either straight up or kicked out slightly instead of in.. yes I took it down and tried to change it

fit my poles
