B-Line Eaton series strut pipe clamps and accessories, 1.61" height, 0.87" length, 400 lbs, Steel, Dampens vibration and noise, Vibra-clamp, Yellow zi

A standard strut clamp grips the pipe metal to metal, so pump pulsation, compressor hum, and line movement transmit straight into the strut and the building structure. The B-Line Vibra-clamp is built to dampen vibration and noise at the clamp, which is what you want on refrigerant lines, pump discharge, and any run near occupied space. For a static run with no movement, a plain strut clamp does the job.

The BVP025YZN is steel with a yellow zinc chromate finish. That is a plated indoor and dry-location finish, fine in mechanical rooms, ceilings, and interior chases. For exterior, rooftop, or corrosive service you want a hot dip galvanized or stainless clamp instead.

Yes. It is part of the Eaton B-Line strut pipe clamp and accessory line, so it fastens into the channel slot on strut the same way the rest of that family does. Plan on a channel nut and bolt at each clamp unless your bill of material already covers the fasteners.

Each clamp weighs .15 lb. On a hanger takeoff with a hundred supports that is only about 15 pounds of hardware, so the clamps are rarely a factor in the trapeze or rod sizing.

It is catalogued by Eaton B-Line on the electrical side and works for small conduit and tubing, but a Vibra-clamp gets used just as often by mechanical trades on refrigerant and instrument lines where noise transfer matters. The deciding factor is the .25 in line size and whether you need the vibration damping, not the trade.
