Tie down clamps make possible the suspension of a 3/8" pipe 2-1/4 inches below a main frame member. This permits the awning covers to be drawn tight over the frame by lacing them to the suspended tie bar. The awning curtain will hide the assembly from view.
Tie down clamps should be spaced approximately four feet apart. Grommets in the purchase strips should be on four to six inch centers. The tie bar need not be continuous —it can be cut and separated to make way for posts or struts if necessary.
Be sure that the tie bar is roughly one inch short on each end to prevent its chafing through the curtains on the ends of the awning. For use with galvanized pipe.
Note: 3/4" Galvanized pipe is 1" outer diameter
