Fittings from tarps.com

I am in the processing of buying enclosure fittings from tarps.com. I plan to build a 12x9x5 enclosure and I am trying to follow the parts that Carl's requires in their instruction.

I have been able to find parts F3 (6 3-way corner fittings ) and FC (3 2-way fittings). The part which is usually described as FL ( 2-way corner fitting) seems to be called 1 inch Mitre L (Lm) on tarps.com . Is that correct or does tarps.com not have the FL fitting, which Carl's specifies ?

would have thought all these part # would have a standard code, hence I am checking with you guys you have purchased from tarps.com in the past.

Mitre L sounds correct. I think I had 6 three way fittings and 2 L fittings for the front floor connection.

Thanks. I am looking to make my enclosure 12 ft wide and Carl’s recommends having three FC pieces to provide more stability

I only see two 2-way fittings for th 9x12 (and 10x13 is the same).

Mine was 13ft wide and I bought a dowel that fit snug inside my emt pipe to connect. That firmed it up and then I connected my horizontal to the ceiling for more support.

Sorry I mixed up F3 and FC in my OP. It’s fixed to avoid confusion for anyone reading this down the road.

I inserted some dowels into the emt to make the horizontal bars connect and give some stability. Mine was 14ft wide. At that width there was some sag even with tightening it up with the internal dowel. I ended up adding a support bracket to the bar and attaching it to the ceiling.
