nVent CADDY 16MAT 1" Conduit & T-Bar Clip

The nVent CADDY 16MAT conduit clip family provides a purpose-built way to secure 1" round conduit to suspended ceiling grid (T-bar) framework. Available in two configurations, Model 16MATS and Model 16MATA, these clips let electrical contractors attach conduit runs directly to standard T-bar suspended ceiling grid systems used throughout commercial and institutional buildings, offices, schools, and similar structures with accessible drop-ceiling plenums. Model 16MATA functions as a dual-purpose conduit and T-bar clip, combining ceiling-grid attachment and conduit support in a single fitting for use above drop ceilings, eliminating the need for separate straps or hardware when routing conduit through grid ceiling framework.

Key Features

  • Trade Size: Sized for 1" conduit, matching standard 1" electrical conduit and tubing runs for a proper, secure fit.
  • Dual-Purpose Attachment: Functions as both a conduit clip and a T-bar clip, letting installers secure conduit directly to a suspended ceiling grid runner without adding separate strap hardware.
  • Model Options: The 16MAT family is available as Model 16MATS or Model 16MATA, giving installers a choice of clip configuration for 1" conduit runs above suspended ceilings.
  • Ceiling Grid Compatibility: Built to attach to standard T-bar suspended ceiling grid framework, the type of grid commonly used in drop-ceiling systems in offices, schools, and other commercial spaces.
  • Streamlined Installation: Combining conduit clip and T-bar clip functions into one fitting helps reduce the number of separate parts an electrician needs to carry and install above the ceiling.
  • Plenum-Area Support: Suited to securing conduit runs in the ceiling plenum space where suspended grid framework is already present, keeping conduit organized and supported along the grid line.

nVent CADDY 16MATA – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can I attach conduit straight to a suspended ceiling T-bar grid without adding a separate strap?
That's exactly what the 16MAT is for. It's a T-bar mount clip that does both jobs at once, gripping the ceiling grid runner and holding the 1 inch conduit, so you aren't carrying separate straps and hardware above the ceiling. Model 16MATA is the dual-purpose conduit and T-bar clip version.
2) What is the difference between nVent CADDY 16MATS and 16MATA?
Both are 1 inch conduit clips for T-bar ceiling grid. The 16MATA is described as the dual-purpose conduit and T-bar clip, combining grid attachment and conduit support in one fitting for use above drop ceilings. The 16MATS is the other clip configuration in the same family for the same 1 inch runs. Order by the model suffix, since they are separate part numbers.
3) How many nVent CADDY 16MAT clips come in a box?
They ship 100 clips per pack, which is the usual quantity for a grid ceiling rough-in where you're setting a clip at every few feet along the runner.
4) Will the 16MAT work on the standard ceiling grid in an office or school?
Yes. The clip is built to attach to standard T-bar suspended ceiling grid framework, the drop-ceiling grid used throughout offices, schools, and similar commercial and institutional buildings. It supports the conduit along the grid line in the plenum space.
5) Is the 16MAT the right clip for conduit that has to be supported independently of the ceiling grid?
No. The 16MAT transfers the conduit load to the suspended ceiling grid runner, so it's only appropriate where attaching to that grid is acceptable. If the run has to hang from structure instead, use a CADDY beam clamp, rod hanger, or strut-mounted conduit strap rather than a T-bar clip.
6) Which part number do I put on the order for a 1 inch CADDY T-bar conduit clip?
The MPNs are 16MATA and 16MATS, both under the nVent CADDY 16MAT family for 1 inch conduit. The base designation 16MAT is the family name, not an orderable number, so specify the A or S suffix.
