Glass Railing Talon Spigots
The glass talon spigot system is made up of glass panels and spigot clamps. Talons come in two configurations: side mount and surface mount. Side mount spigots attach to the side of each glass panel, while surface mount spigots clamp the glass from the bottom. You will need to use at least two talons for every 4’ glass panel. Each one weighs about 6 pounds and measures 7” from bottom to top.

Product Information
Glass talon spigots are an easy-to-install, versatile glass railing system. Talons are offered in two different configurations: side mount and surface mount. Whether you choose side mount or surface mount talon spigots, you will need to use at least two talons for every 4’ glass panel. Each one weighs about 6 pounds and is 7” high. The surface mount talon spigot is a clamp that has four holes in its base plate that is simple to screw into the surface of your project. The surface mount clamps the glass from both sides—there is no need for pre-drilled holes, which also makes the surface mount talon spigot a cost-effective option. Both spigots are made of marine-grade 2205 duplex stainless steel and utilize tilt lock technology to keep the glass clamped safely in place. Tilt lock is an innovative technology that greatly helps with the installation of your glass panels. Usually, when you install glass panels, you not only have to align the glass horizontally with each other, but vertically as well. Tilt lock takes the human error out of this process.Frequently Asked Questions
