Product Description
Half inch Black steel pipe fitting door handle with tee and end plug is an industrial looking door pull bar fitting made from black steel plumbing pipe to provide a rubbed iron look. This door handle features our custom made decorative cast iron flange plate. By using black plumbing pipe fittings this door handle will require a corrosion resistant treatment if used outdoors. For indoor use you could leave surface bare but we recommend a light cover of linseed oil to seal and protect the steel surface from aging. This is a “pipe furniture” branded item that is unique to us. This will come assembled tight ready to install.
When selecting the pull bar length, the length is just the pipe component. The full dimension is a total to each flange outside and is 140mm longer than the selected pipe length. The outside diameter of this 1/2″ BSPT thread pipe is 22mm. To choose your own length rather than the set options, order custom length black steel separately here.

Black Steel finish
The black steel finish is created in a process in manufacturing of this pipe fitting after casting. Its name comes from the scaly, dark-colored iron oxide coating on its surface. It’s used in applications that don’t require galvanized steel. This pipe is not used for drinking water but black steel pipe’s strength makes it ideal for transporting water and gas in rural and urban areas and for conduits that protect electrical wiring and for delivering high pressure steam and air. The oil and petroleum industries use black steel pipe for moving large quantities of oil through remote areas. It has an oiled finish that protects it from corrosion for some time when used in furniture. A new coating of Linseed oil is applied to items of furniture once manufactured to give a rubbed iron appearance.
Finishing off
When making furniture from black steel pipe and fittings it should be noted that despite the light oil coating you may need to clean and seal with finish that suits the purpose. For indoor use we recommend Linseed Oil since it will keep the black cast iron luster alive and help prevent rusting.
