Technical Specifications

This heavy-gauge steel conduit clamp accommodates 1" trade size rigid and IMC conduit with precise dimensional tolerances. The clamp measures 1.85" in length, 1.35" in width, and 1.04" in height, with a lightweight 0.11 lb construction that doesn't compromise on strength. The heavy-gauge steel construction provides superior clamping force while maintaining the structural integrity of the conduit system. Designed for ordinary/non-hazardous locations in commercial and industrial environments.

Installation Process

1. Determine proper clamp spacing per NEC requirements (typically every 10 feet for rigid/IMC conduit)
2. Mark mounting locations on structural supports ensuring adequate clearance
3. Secure clamp base to mounting surface using appropriate fasteners for substrate type
4. Position 1" rigid or IMC conduit within clamp opening ensuring proper alignment
5. Tighten clamp mechanism to secure conduit without over-compression
6. Verify conduit is properly supported and aligned before proceeding with installation

Applications

Perfect for:

• Commercial Buildings - Office complexes, retail centers, hospitals, and educational facilities
• Industrial Facilities - Manufacturing plants, processing facilities, and heavy industrial environments
• Equipment Rooms - Electrical panels, switchgear, and motor control center connections
• Utility Installations - Power distribution systems and electrical service entrances
• Infrastructure Projects - Municipal buildings, transportation facilities, and government installations
• Maintenance Applications - Conduit system repairs, extensions, and modifications
• Exposed Conduit Runs - Surface-mounted conduit systems requiring secure support
• Structural Mounting - Attachment to beams, walls, and other building structural elements

Rigid/IMC Conduit System Benefits

Rigid and IMC conduit systems provide superior mechanical protection for electrical conductors compared to flexible conduit options. The heavy-wall construction of rigid/IMC conduit combined with proper support clamps creates a robust raceway system capable of withstanding physical impact, environmental stresses, and long-term service demands. This clamp ensures your conduit system maintains proper support spacing for code compliance while providing the reliability expected in professional electrical installations.
