Our Essentials
Chain Link Line Rail Clamps—commonly known as boulevard clamps—are essential fittings for a wide range of residential, commercial, and industrial fencing applications. Designed to connect two pieces of round pipe or tubing, these clamps create a strong “plus” (+) configuration, making them ideal for installing bottom rails, mid rails, and general pipe framing.
These two-piece clamps “sandwich” the pipe together and secure it in place using nuts and bolts (sold separately), relying on friction for a firm and reliable connection. Line rail clamps are most often used on chain link fence systems and are a standard component on chain link backstops.
