nVent CADDY 2FMP28 Armor Multi-Purpose Beam Clamp, Spring Steel

The nVent CADDY 2FMP28 Armor Multi-Purpose Beam Clamp (Caddy®, formerly Erico) is a spring steel clamp built to secure a 1/4-Inch threaded rod directly to structural steel beam flanges ranging from 1/8" to 1/2" thick. Rather than drilling or welding into the beam, installers position the clamp over the flange and tighten it down to create an immediate, load-rated attachment point for hanging conduit, pipe, cable tray, and other overhead support systems. The spring steel Armor construction is engineered to maintain firm clamping tension across the full 1/8" to 1/2" flange range, making the 2FMP28 a versatile choice for electrical and mechanical trades working on structural steel.

Key Features

  • Rod Size: Accommodates a 1/4-Inch threaded rod, providing a ready attachment point for hangers, trapezes, and support rods.
  • Durable Spring Steel Construction: The Armor spring steel body resists deformation and retains clamping tension under sustained mechanical loads.
  • Beam Flange Compatibility: Fits structural steel beam flanges from 1/8" to 1/2" thick, covering a wide range of common beam profiles on a single clamp.
  • Multi-Purpose Beam Clamp Design: Suited to general-purpose electrical and mechanical support tasks wherever a rod needs to be anchored to structural steel.
  • Tool-Tightened, Weld-Free Attachment: Clamps directly onto the beam flange, eliminating the need to drill, weld, or otherwise penetrate the structural beam.
  • Compact, Field-Ready Form: Sized for quick installation in overhead beam locations common to commercial and industrial construction.

Technical Specifications

  • Refer to manufacturer documentation for complete technical specifications.

Typical Applications

  • Suspending Threaded Rod from Structural Steel Beams
  • Supporting Conduit and Raceway Runs from Overhead Steel
  • Cable Tray, Pipe, and Duct Hanger Support Systems
  • Commercial and Industrial Electrical Installations
  • New Construction and Retrofit Beam-Mounted Support

Why nVent CADDY?

nVent CADDY engineers the Armor 2FMP28 Beam Clamp from spring steel so contractors get a dependable, reusable clamping point on structural steel without compromising the beam itself. As part of the long-established Caddy® line of fastening and support hardware (formerly sold under the Erico name), the 2FMP28 gives electrical and mechanical trades a fast, code-friendly way to establish a 1/4-Inch rod support point across beam flanges from 1/8" to 1/2" thick. Choose nVent CADDY when the job calls for support hardware built to hold up on structural steel.

nVent CADDY 2FMP28 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Do I have to drill or weld the beam to install this clamp?
No. The 2FMP28 sets over the beam flange and tightens down with a tool, giving you a rod attachment point without drilling, welding, or otherwise penetrating the structural steel. That matters on jobs where the structural engineer or building owner will not allow modifications to the steel, and it means the clamp can be removed and relocated later.
2) Can I use the 2FMP28 to hang cable tray and pipe, or is it only for conduit?
It is a multi-purpose clamp. Once the 1/4 inch rod is anchored to the beam flange you can hang conduit and raceway, pipe, duct hangers, cable tray, or a trapeze off it. Both electrical and mechanical trades use it the same way: the clamp establishes the rod point and whatever hanger you thread onto the rod decides what it carries.
3) Is the CADDY 2FMP28 the same thing as the old Erico beam clamp?
Same line. CADDY was formerly sold under the Erico name and is now branded nVent CADDY, so a 2FMP28 ordered today is the current designation for that Armor multi-purpose clamp. The part number has carried over, which is what you quote when matching existing hardware already installed in a building.
4) How many clamps come in a pack of the nVent CADDY 2FMP28?
They ship 100 to the pack. For an electrical rough-in that is usually right sized to a floor or a zone of conduit hangers, since you are placing one clamp per rod drop. Count your drop spacing against the run length before you decide how many packs the job needs.
5) Why spring steel instead of a cast or malleable iron beam clamp?
The Armor spring steel body flexes to grip and then holds that tension, which is how one clamp covers flanges from 1/8 inch through 1/2 inch instead of needing a size per flange thickness. Spring steel also resists deformation under sustained load, so the clamp does not relax its grip over time on an overhead run. A cast clamp typically relies on a set screw bearing on the flange instead.
6) Where can I get the published load data for the 2FMP28?
Load ratings and the full engineering tables for the Armor multi-purpose beam clamp are published in the nVent CADDY full catalog, which is attached to the 2FMP28 record at zensupply.com/content/pdf/nvent-caddy/nvent-caddy-full-catalog.pdf. Pull the figure for the 1/4 inch rod size specifically, since allowable load tracks rod diameter.
