Gable Left Corner Fitting

Gable Left Corner Fitting for Classic Frame Tent Systems

The Gable Left Corner Fitting is a specialized frame tent connector designed for Classic Series and West Coast style frame tents with gable ends. This fitting is used at the corner of the tent structure to connect perimeter tubing and rafters, forming the vertical end profile required for gable-style configurations.

Built for event rental companies and professional install crews, this component is essential when assembling or maintaining gable frame tents. Its design ensures proper alignment between structural elements while supporting efficient tent installation and consistent performance across repeated setups.

Why This Fitting Matters

Gable frame tents require specific corner fittings to create their distinct end structure. The Gable Left Corner Fitting provides the correct geometry to connect rafters to perimeter tubing, allowing the frame to form a stable vertical end.

Using the correct left and right fittings ensures proper alignment and structural integrity. These components are not interchangeable, and both are required to complete each gable end of the tent.
