Technical Specifications

This UBM Series conduit U-bolt accommodates 4" trade size rigid and IMC conduit with precision-engineered dimensions of 6.69" length, 5.06" width, and 4" height. The electrogalvanized iron construction features 3/8"-16 threading for secure mounting to structural supports, beams, and mounting brackets. The unit weighs 0.51 pounds and is designed for ordinary/non-hazardous locations in compliance with NEC and CEC standards.

Installation Process

1. Determine proper support spacing per NEC/CEC requirements for 4" conduit
2. Mark mounting locations on structural support or mounting surface
3. Position U-bolt around conduit ensuring proper alignment and support
4. Insert threaded ends through mounting holes or brackets
5. Apply washers and nuts to 3/8"-16 threads
6. Tighten to manufacturer specifications ensuring secure conduit support without over-compression

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 Connections - Motor control centers, switchgear, and electrical distribution panels
• Outdoor Installations - Weather-exposed conduit runs requiring corrosion-resistant support
• Heavy-Duty Applications - Large conduit runs carrying multiple circuits or high-amperage feeds
• Structural Mounting - Beam clamps, unistrut systems, and concrete anchor applications
• Maintenance Access Areas - Locations requiring secure but accessible conduit support systems

Conduit Support System Benefits

Proper conduit support using quality U-bolts like the Crouse-Hinds UBM series prevents conduit sagging, reduces stress on connections, and maintains system integrity over decades of service. The U-bolt design distributes load evenly around the conduit circumference, preventing deformation while allowing for thermal expansion and contraction in long conduit runs.

Why Choose Electrogalvanized Iron Construction?

The electrogalvanized iron construction of this Crouse-Hinds U-bolt provides superior corrosion resistance compared to standard steel alternatives, while offering greater strength than aluminum options. This combination ensures reliable performance in both indoor and outdoor applications, making it the preferred choice for electrical contractors who demand long-term reliability and professional-grade quality in their conduit support systems.
