Canopy Connector 3/4" R X 3/4" D X 5-11/16" L Carbon Steel AHC 802297 9-PACK The AHC 802297 galvanized carbon steel connector is a heavy-duty, welded canopy fitting engineered for the structural assembly of outdoor canopies, pergolas, and covered structures. Designed with a 3/4-inch round end and a P3J (pipe-to-3/4" threaded) termination, it provides a robust, corrosion-resistant connection point for joining horizontal and vertical tubular framing members ? commonly used in commercial, residential, and agricultural shade structures. Constructed from thick-gauge carbon steel with a hot-dip galvanized finish, it resists rust, weathering, and environmental degradation ? ensuring long-term performance in exposed outdoor environments. Integrated welded nuts and four eye bolts per unit allow for secure, bolted assembly without welding or specialized tools, enabling quick, reliable construction of canopy frames.
