B-Line B2012SS6 Eaton series strut pipe clamps and accessories, .104" height, 3.78" length, 1.25" width, Steel, Includes combination recess hex head machine screw, Pipe or conduit clamps, Stainless steel type 316

The B2012SS6 ships with a combination recess hex head machine screw included, so the clamp and its fastener come together. You still need the strut channel nut or spring nut for the channel you are fastening into, since that is not part of the clamp.

It is a Type 316 stainless steel strut pipe clamp, which is the grade specified where chloride exposure is a concern, coastal and marine sites, water treatment, food plants and wash-down areas. Type 316 handles those conditions better than plain electro-galvanized or Type 304 strut hardware.

The clamp measures 3.78 in length, 1.25 in width and .104 in height (that last figure is the material thickness of the strap), and it weighs .3 lb. Use the 1.25 in width to check it seats inside the channel opening of your strut run before you order a quantity.

Mechanically it will bolt up, but pairing 316 stainless hardware with galvanized channel in a wet or salt-air location sets up galvanic action at the contact point and gives up the corrosion performance you bought the stainless for. If you are specifying 316 clamps, run 316 channel and 316 channel nuts with them. Indoors and dry, mixing is common practice.

Order it as B-Line B2012SS6. That is the manufacturer part number, from the Eaton B-Line strut pipe clamp line, with the SS6 suffix denoting Type 316 stainless.

Yes. The B2012SS6 is a strut clamp for pipe or conduit, so it is used for both rigid conduit runs and process or plumbing pipe supported off strut. Match the clamp size to the outside diameter of the conduit or pipe you are running, not to the trade size alone, since IMC, rigid and copper tube of the same nominal size differ in OD.
