Technical Specifications

This RAC series right angle conduit clamp accommodates 1-1/2" trade size rigid and IMC conduit with precise dimensional tolerances. The iron construction with hot dip galvanized finish provides superior corrosion resistance compared to standard zinc plating. Measuring 3.5" in length, 3.25" in width, and 1.5" in height, the clamp weighs 0.54 pounds and offers robust support capacity. The right angle configuration enables 90-degree conduit routing while maintaining NEC/CEC compliance for ordinary/non-hazardous locations.

Installation Process

1. Select appropriate mounting location ensuring adequate structural support for conduit load
2. Mark and drill mounting holes according to clamp base configuration
3. Secure clamp to mounting surface using appropriate fasteners for substrate type
4. Position 1-1/2" rigid or IMC conduit in clamp cradle at desired angle
5. Tighten clamp hardware to secure conduit without over-compression
6. Verify conduit alignment and support spacing meets NEC/CEC requirements

Applications

Perfect for:

• Commercial Buildings - Office complexes, retail centers, hospitals, and educational facilities
• Industrial Facilities - Manufacturing plants, processing facilities, and distribution centers
• Outdoor Installations - Parking structures, exterior building runs, and weathered environments
• Equipment Connections - Motor control centers, switchgear, and electrical panel feeds
• Structural Navigation - Routing around beams, columns, ductwork, and piping systems
• Municipal Projects - Schools, government buildings, and public infrastructure
• Heavy-Duty Applications - High-fill conduit runs requiring robust support
• Maintenance Access - Installations requiring future conduit accessibility

Right Angle Clamp System Benefits

Right angle conduit clamps provide essential support for conduit systems that must navigate around structural obstacles while maintaining proper support spacing. Unlike standard straight clamps, right angle designs distribute loads effectively through directional changes, preventing conduit sagging and maintaining system integrity. The 90-degree configuration enables clean, professional installations in space-constrained environments while ensuring code compliance.

Why Choose Hot Dip Galvanized Iron?

Hot dip galvanizing provides superior corrosion protection compared to electroplated finishes, with zinc coating that bonds metallurgically to the iron substrate. This process creates a barrier that protects the base metal even if the coating is scratched or damaged. Combined with iron's superior strength characteristics, this clamp delivers the durability and reliability that electrical professionals demand for long-term installations in challenging environments.
