Technical Specifications

This conduit clamp accommodates 1" trade size rigid and IMC conduit with precise malleable iron construction measuring 1.88" in height, 1.88" in length, and 0.88" in width. The compact 0.13 lb weight provides substantial strength without adding unnecessary bulk to installations. Designed for ordinary/non-hazardous locations with NEC/CEC compliance, this clamp integrates seamlessly into professional electrical systems requiring reliable conduit support.

Installation Process

1. Select appropriate mounting location ensuring proper conduit support spacing per NEC/CEC requirements
2. Position clamp around 1" rigid or IMC conduit at designated support point
3. Align clamp with mounting surface or support structure
4. Secure clamp using appropriate fasteners for mounting substrate
5. Verify secure grip on conduit without over-tightening that could cause deformation
6. Confirm proper support spacing throughout conduit run per electrical code requirements

Applications

Perfect for:

• Commercial Buildings - Office complexes, retail centers, hospitals, and educational facilities
• Industrial Facilities - Manufacturing plants, processing facilities, and heavy industrial installations
• Municipal Infrastructure - Government buildings, schools, and public utility installations
• Equipment Rooms - Electrical panels, switchgear areas, and motor control centers
• Conduit Runs - Long horizontal and vertical conduit installations requiring code-compliant support
• Mechanical Rooms - HVAC equipment areas and utility spaces with rigid conduit systems
• Outdoor Installations - Weather-exposed conduit runs requiring durable support hardware
• Heavy-Duty Applications - Installations subject to vibration, thermal cycling, or mechanical stress

Rigid/IMC Conduit System Benefits

Rigid and IMC conduit systems provide superior mechanical protection and grounding continuity compared to flexible alternatives. Proper support with quality clamps like this Crouse-Hinds model ensures system integrity, prevents sagging, and maintains code compliance throughout the installation's service life. The robust construction handles the weight and thermal expansion of metallic conduit systems while providing reliable anchor points for complex routing configurations.
