Abstract: The invention relates to a device for coupling or plugging square tubes, which comprises a hollow base member having a hollow coupling member projecting therefrom and, if desired, one or more other coupling members projecting from the base member. The other coupling members have axial partitions in the mid-portions thereof, at least the mid-portion of which is thick enough to receive a sheet metal screw and, if desired, there is provided a plug for the hollow coupling member for receiving a sheet metal screw.
