Technical Specifications

This RAC series right angle conduit clamp accommodates 2-1/2" trade size rigid and IMC conduit with hot dip galvanized iron construction. The clamp measures 4.88" in length, 4.5" in width, and 2.5" in height, weighing 0.95 pounds for substantial mounting strength. The galvanized finish provides superior corrosion protection for ordinary/non-hazardous locations, making it ideal for both indoor and outdoor electrical installations requiring NEC/CEC compliant conduit support systems.

Installation Process

1. Select appropriate mounting surface capable of supporting conduit weight and clamp load
2. Position the right angle clamp at the desired 90-degree corner location
3. Mark mounting hole locations using the clamp as a template
4. Drill pilot holes and secure clamp to mounting surface with appropriate fasteners
5. Insert 2-1/2" rigid or IMC conduit into the clamp opening
6. Tighten clamp securely to hold conduit in proper position
7. Verify conduit alignment and support spacing meets NEC/CEC requirements

Applications

Perfect for:

• Commercial Buildings - Office complexes, retail centers, and healthcare facilities
• Industrial Facilities - Manufacturing plants, processing centers, and warehouses
• Outdoor Installations - Parking structures, exterior building runs, and weathered environments
• Municipal Projects - Schools, government buildings, and public infrastructure
• Heavy-Duty Applications - Large conduit runs requiring substantial support
• Corner Installations - Building corners, equipment rooms, and directional changes
• Corrosive Environments - Areas with moisture, chemicals, or harsh atmospheric conditions
• Long-Term Projects - Installations requiring decades of reliable performance

Right Angle Clamp System Benefits

Right angle conduit clamps provide essential support at directional changes where standard straight clamps cannot accommodate the 90-degree configuration. This specialized design ensures proper conduit alignment while maintaining structural integrity at corner installations. The right angle configuration distributes mechanical stress effectively, preventing conduit sagging and maintaining proper support spacing throughout the electrical system.

Why Choose Hot Dip Galvanized Iron?

Hot dip galvanizing provides the ultimate corrosion protection by completely coating the iron substrate with a metallurgically bonded zinc layer. This process creates a barrier that protects the underlying iron even if the coating is scratched or damaged. Combined with iron's superior strength characteristics, this clamp delivers unmatched durability for demanding electrical installations where long-term reliability and corrosion resistance are critical requirements.
