Hercules Side Mounted Spigots for Glass Balustrades
Looking for rock-solid balustrade side mounted spigot solutions? The Hercules range delivers unmatched strength and clean lines for your glass balustrade projects. These side-fix spigots are built tough for Australian conditions, whether you're fitting out a pool deck, commercial space, or modern residential build.
Hercules side mounted spigots are engineered for projects where core drilling isn't an option or you need to mount directly to structural supports. They're perfect for retrofit jobs, timber decking applications, and situations where you're working with existing structures.

Why Hercules Side Mounted Spigots Stand Out
The Hercules series is all about giving you options without compromising on quality. These spigots mount flush to posts, walls, or structural beams, making them ideal when you can't drill down through your substrate.
Unlike base-fix spigots that require core drilling, side-mount options give you flexibility. You can work with existing structures without major modifications. This saves time on site and reduces the risk of damaging substrates during installation.
The Hercules range is manufactured from marine-grade stainless steel. This means they won't rust or degrade, even in coastal environments or around pool areas with high chlorine exposure. They're built to handle Australian weather conditions year after year.
Key Features
- Marine-grade 316 stainless steel construction for maximum corrosion resistance
- Side-fix design eliminates need for core drilling
- Compatible with 10mm to 12mm glass thicknesses
- Adjustable glass angle for uneven surfaces
- Polished or satin finish options to match your design
- Load-tested to meet Australian building standards
Where to Use Hercules Side Mount Spigots
Pool Decking

Technical Specifications You Need
Understanding the specs helps you specify the right product first time. Hercules side mounted spigots come with detailed technical drawings showing mounting dimensions, bolt patterns, and load ratings.
Each spigot is supplied with all necessary fixing bolts and rubber gaskets. The design allows for minor adjustments during installation, which is crucial when you're working with real-world construction tolerances.

Frequently Asked Questions
Hercules side mounted spigots are designed to accommodate glass thicknesses from 10mm up to 12mm. This covers most standard balustrade applications.
The adjustable grub screws allow you to fine-tune the grip for your specific glass thickness. Always use toughened or laminated safety glass as per Australian Standards AS 1288.
These spigots can be fixed to timber posts, steel beams, masonry walls, and composite materials. The key is ensuring your substrate is structurally sound and capable of handling the loads.
For timber, use a minimum 90mm x 90mm post. For steel, ensure adequate wall thickness. Always follow the installation guide and use appropriate fixings for your substrate type.
Standard spacing for Hercules side mounted spigots is typically 1000mm to 1200mm centres, depending on glass height and wind load calculations.
For high-wind areas or taller glass panels, reduce spacing to 900mm centres. Always check your local building codes and engineer's specifications for your specific project requirements.
Absolutely. The marine-grade 316 stainless steel construction makes them perfect for pool environments where chlorine and moisture are constant factors.
They won't corrode or stain over time. For pool applications, we always recommend 316 grade over 304, especially if you're in a coastal area where you're dealing with both chlorine and salt air.
Installation is straightforward for experienced tradies. You'll need basic tools: drill, level, measuring tape, and appropriate drivers.
The process involves marking your centres, fixing the spigots securely to the substrate, then inserting and securing the glass panels. Full installation instructions are included with every order, along with technical support if you need it.
Hercules spigots come in mirror polished or satin brushed finishes. The polished option gives a high-shine contemporary look, while satin offers a more subtle, modern appearance.
Both finishes are equally durable and corrosion-resistant. Your choice comes down to design preference and what matches your other hardware finishes on the project.
