NFPA Code brackets
2003 ruling NFPA handrails need to have a minimum of a 2-1/4” clearance The 1770 bracket will meet the NFPA codes if used with 1-1/2” OD Tubing. At the present time, the only states that I know to have adopted NFPA are Vermont and New Hampshire. We have redesigned two brackets to meet this code: 4581 in malleable iron and ER8003 and ER8004 in aluminum. You would need to go to the web to see this information. This dimension only exists in the NFPA. The new ADA has been published and it is not in there. Being that it took ADA 15 years to publish this revision, I don’t expect it to be revised again for quite some time so the information that this dimension will also be in the ADA is not correct. ---per Tony Leto--11/4/05
