2-3/8" Splice Kit for E-glide Ladder Rail, Polished Brass
Description
2-3/8" Splice Kit For E-Glide Ladder Rail
2-3/8" splice kit for E-glide ladder rail is a Quiet Glide connector designed for rolling library ladder installations where E-glide rails need to be joined end to end. The kit is part of the additional E-Glide ladder rail components used when adding rails or working with multiple walls on E-Glide ladder packages, so one rail run can transition cleanly to the next. The rail connector fastens inside the mating rail sections, so the ladder can roll across the joint along a continuous E-glide rail line in rolling library ladder applications. The polished brass finish aligns with polished brass E-glide ladder rails, keeping the connector visually consistent with the rest of the ladder hardware in builders hardware and ladder hardware projects.
Key E-Glide Splice Details For Ladder Runs
- The special rail connector is designed for joining E-Glide rails together, so straight runs of rail can be extended where a rolling library ladder needs to travel farther along the wall.
- Set screws lock the joining rails in place, so the connected E-glide rails stay fixed at the joint during normal ladder rolling, reducing unwanted movement along the connection.
- The connector is to be used connecting EG.4004.02, EG4004.06, EG4004.07, and EG4004.08 model E-Glide ladder rails, so installers matching those rail part numbers can align this splice with the intended E-glide system.
- Rail connector dimensions are 5/8" x 9/16" x 2-3/8", so the connector profile fits inside the corresponding E-glide ladder rails while providing enough length to bridge and support both rail ends.
- The polished brass rail connector works with polished brass E-glide ladder rails, maintaining a consistent brass appearance across the rolling library ladder rail installation.
Rail Splice Dimensions And Joining Workflow
The rail connector dimensions of 5/8" x 9/16" x 2-3/8" define how the Quiet Glide part EG.41.06 sits within the E-glide rail interior, giving installers a predictable fit into the rail profile. The 2-3/8" length spans across both rail ends in an E-glide ladder run, so each rail section engages a portion of the connector for support. The special rail connector design for joining E-glide rails together focuses the joining force along the connector body, helping rails align during rolling library ladder use. Set screws that lock the joining rails in place provide a mechanical hold at the splice location, which matters when the ladder transitions over that joint during movement.
Using This Splice Kit In E-Glide Rail Layouts
Where This Quiet Glide Splice Kit Fits Best
This Quiet Glide 2-3/8" splice kit for E-glide ladder rail is used in rolling library ladder layouts that rely on E-glide rails identified as EG.4004.02, EG4004.06, EG4004.07, or EG4004.08. Because the special rail connector is designed for joining these E-glide rails together, it serves in layouts where more than one rail section forms a continuous run along a wall. In multiple-wall E-Glide ladder packages, the additional E-glide ladder rail components described as for adding rails or having multiple walls let installers extend the ladder travel. Within that group of components, this polished brass connector helps join rail sections at each transition, so the ladder follows the E-glide rail line across library, office, or similar ladder hardware environments.
Why Connector Design And Set Screws Matter
The special rail connector design for joining E-glide rails together concentrates on a secure interface between rail interiors, so the mating E-glide rails share a fixed alignment once the connector is positioned. When the set screws lock the joining rails in place, they resist shifting at the joint under the rolling action of a Quiet Glide ladder, which matters for smooth ladder travel. The 5/8" x 9/16" cross-section keeps the connector sized to sit inside the rail profile without excessive play, while the 2-3/8" length distributes the connection across both rail sections. The polished brass finish allows the connector to visually coordinate with polished brass E-glide ladder rails in builders hardware and ladder hardware installations, which supports a unified rolling library ladder appearance.
Common Questions About This E-Glide Rail Splice
What does the 2-3/8" splice kit do on an E-glide rail?
The 2-3/8" splice kit for E-glide ladder rail uses a special rail connector to join E-glide rails together, so separate rail sections form one continuous track for rolling library ladders.
Which E-glide ladder rails work with the EG.41.06 splice?
The EG.41.06 splice kit is to be used connecting EG.4004.02, EG4004.06, EG4004.07, and EG4004.08 model E-Glide ladder rails, aligning the connector with those specific rail profiles.
How do the set screws affect the E-glide rail joint?
The splice kit set screws lock the joining rails in place, so the E-glide rail connection stays fixed during ladder movement and helps maintain alignment along the rolling path.
What are the dimensions of the Quiet Glide rail connector?
The Quiet Glide rail connector measures 5/8" x 9/16" x 2-3/8", giving a defined cross-section and length for fitting inside E-glide ladder rails during rolling library ladder installations.
Why is this splice kit suited to multiple-wall ladder layouts?
The splice kit is described as additional E-Glide ladder rail components for adding rails or having multiple walls, so it supports extended rail runs across more than one wall.
How does the polished brass finish fit ladder hardware projects?
The polished brass finish on this rail connector matches polished brass E-glide ladder rails in builders hardware and ladder hardware projects, supporting a consistent brass appearance.
Selecting This Splice Kit For E-Glide Rails
The Quiet Glide 2-3/8" splice kit for E-glide ladder rail, part number EG.41.06, is tailored to E-glide rolling library ladder systems that use EG.4004.02, EG4004.06, EG4004.07, or EG4004.08 rails. With a special polished brass rail connector, 5/8" x 9/16" x 2-3/8" dimensions, and set screws that lock joining rails in place, it supports extended E-glide rail runs in builders hardware and ladder hardware applications. For projects adding rails or using multiple walls with E-Glide ladder packages, this connector provides the defined interface needed to join rail sections into a single rolling ladder path.
