Alpha A2324+45 Aluminium Transit Drive & Clip

The Alpha A2324+45 Aluminium Transit Drive & Clip is a specialised component within Alpha’s tubular motor accessory range.

Alpha identifies the product as “A2324+45 Alum Trans drive+clip” with the primary product code A2324.

Unlike the conventional crown-and-drive combinations found elsewhere in Alpha’s accessory range, this product is identified specifically as an aluminium transit drive and clip.

Aluminium Transit Drive

The A2324 is designed to provide the drive component for a compatible tubular motor installation.

Within a tubular motor system, the drive is responsible for transferring the rotational movement generated by the motor to the surrounding roller tube.

As the motor operates, the correctly matched drive engages with the tube so that the tube rotates with the motor.

Because the drive interfaces directly with the roller tube, selecting the correct component for the particular installation is important.

Supplied with Clip

Alpha’s product description specifically includes “drive+clip”, indicating that the corresponding clip forms part of this product configuration.

The clip should therefore be retained and installed as part of the intended A2324+45 assembly rather than treating the drive as a standalone generic component.

A Specialised Motor Accessory

The Alpha A2324+45 shouldn’t be treated as universally interchangeable with other Alpha drives.

Alpha produces numerous crowns, drives and adaptors for different motor and roller tube combinations.

Although many of these components can appear similar, their dimensions and profiles can differ according to the tube and motor system they’re intended to connect.

The correct product code is therefore particularly useful when replacing an existing component.

Replacing an Existing Transit Drive

If an existing installation already uses an A2324 or matching A2324+45 configuration, ordering by the Alpha product code provides the clearest replacement reference.

When removing an existing motor, keep the original drive and clip until the replacement has been confirmed.

Also check the components for moulded numbers, markings or other identifying information.

Photographs of the original components can make matching replacements considerably easier.

Check Your Existing Roller Tube

Alpha hasn’t provided a specific roller tube diameter or profile in the product information supplied for the A2324.

For that reason, we won’t claim that it fits a particular roller tube without confirmation.

If you’re trying to determine whether the A2324 is correct for an existing blind, collect as much information about the installation as possible.

Useful information includes:

• Inside diameter of the roller tube
• Clear photograph looking directly into the tube
• Internal tube profile
• Photograph of the existing drive
• Photograph of the existing crown or adaptor, if fitted
• Existing motor model
• Any product codes visible on the existing components

Our Match Your Existing Blind Tube to the Correct Crown & Drive guide explains how to collect this information.

Don’t Select by Appearance Alone

Crown and drive components can look very similar in product photographs.

Small differences in diameter, shape or engagement points can determine whether a component correctly interfaces with a particular roller tube.

For this reason, don’t select the A2324 simply because it visually resembles an existing component.

Where possible, confirm the Alpha product code and installation configuration before ordering.

Important Compatibility Information

Alpha’s supplied information identifies this product as “A2324+45 Alum Trans drive+clip”, but doesn’t provide a specific roller tube profile or motor model.

Compatibility should therefore be confirmed before ordering unless you already know that your installation requires the Alpha A2324/A2324+45 configuration.

FAQs

What is the Alpha A2324+45?

It is an Alpha aluminium transit drive and clip for compatible tubular motor installations.

What is the product code?

Alpha lists the product code as A2324.

Does the A2324 include a clip?

Yes. Alpha’s product designation specifically states “drive+clip.”

Is the drive aluminium?

Yes. Alpha describes it as an “Alum Trans drive,” indicating an aluminium transit drive.

Which roller tube does the A2324 fit?

The supplied Alpha information doesn’t specify a particular roller tube, so tube compatibility should be confirmed before ordering.

Is this a complete crown and drive set?

Alpha specifically describes the product as an aluminium transit drive + clip, so we wouldn’t describe it as a complete conventional crown-and-drive set without further information.

How can I check whether I need the A2324?

Check the existing components for identifying codes and compare the motor, roller tube dimensions and internal tube profile with the replacement configuration.
