ABSTRACT:
An arrangement is provided for attaching a downcomer which is in the form of a square tube to a weld stud of smaller dimension to provide a tight vibration free connection. Included is an adapter having an end wall and two opposed side walls defining a receptacle having one open end. The weld stud is received in the receptacle with apertures in the side walls of the adapter aligned with those of the stud. The open end of the square tube extends over the adapter with openings in the tube walls aligned with the openings in the adapter in the stud. The openings receive fasteners to make the attachment. One end of the adapter is slotted so that the adapter can be deflected and made to grip the stud frictionally during assembly.
