Folding connector GF-N
The folding connector is a hinge between two GF-N tubes: each half slides into the end of a tube and the two halves rotate around the pin. This way part of the structure opens and closes, like a folding top or shelf, or acts as a pivot for karakuri levers. This is a discontinued item that we sell while stocks last.
Why choose it
Folding structures
Tops, shelves and frames that open and close.
For karakuri

Small footprint
The two tubes stay side by side, at 28 mm centres, when the structure is closed.
Application example

- Fold-down shelves and tops
- Folding frames to store away when not needed
- Levers and arms of karakuri mechanisms
