nVent CADDY BC101 Spring Steel Beam Clamp, 1/4-Inch Rod Size

The nVent CADDY BC101 Spring Steel Beam Clamp is engineered for fast, tool-free attachment of threaded hanger rod to structural steel beam flanges, eliminating the need for drilling, welding, or additional hardware. Formed from durable spring steel, this beam clamp accommodates rod sizes from 1/4-Inch (RS1) up to #10 (RS2), covering a wide range of common support-rod diameters used on commercial and industrial jobsites. A 1/2-Inch jaw opening is sized to grip standard structural beam flange thicknesses securely, while the Caddy® Armor coating helps protect the clamp against corrosion in demanding installation environments.

Key Features

  • Beam Clamp Design: Spring steel beam clamp construction allows quick, tool-free attachment of threaded hanger rod directly to structural steel beams, saving installation time versus drilled or welded connections.
  • Rod Size Range: Accepts rod sizes from 1/4-Inch (RS1) up to #10 (RS2), giving installers flexibility to match the clamp to common hanger rod diameters on a single job.
  • Jaw Opening: A 1/2-Inch jaw opening is sized to fit standard structural beam flange thicknesses, helping ensure a secure, slip-resistant hold under load.
  • Durable Construction: Spring steel material delivers strong, consistent clamping force and long-term mechanical reliability under sustained overhead loads.
  • Finish: Caddy® Armor coating helps protect the clamp against corrosion, supporting longer service life in typical construction environments.
  • Tool-Free Installation: The spring-action jaw design allows the clamp to be positioned onto the beam flange by hand, speeding up overhead rod support installation.

nVent CADDY BC – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What rod sizes does the nVent CADDY BC101 beam clamp accept?
The BC101 takes threaded hanger rod from 1/4 inch (RS1) up to #10 (RS2). That covers the two rod diameters most commonly used for overhead conduit and pipe support, so one clamp part number works whether the run is hung on 1/4-20 all-thread or #10 rod.
2) How thick a beam flange will the BC101 clamp fit over?
The jaw opens 1/2 inch, so it grips structural steel flanges up to that thickness. If the flange on your beam is heavier than 1/2 inch, this clamp will not seat and you need a wider-jaw beam clamp instead.
3) Do I need to drill or weld to install a CADDY BC101 beam clamp?
No. The spring steel jaw snaps onto the beam flange by hand, so there is no drilling, welding, or secondary hardware involved. That is the main reason contractors use it over a bolted or welded attachment: an overhead rod support goes up in seconds and the structural steel is left untouched, which matters on retrofit work where drilling the beam is not permitted.
4) Will a spring steel beam clamp hold up in a damp or corrosive building?
The BC101 is spring steel finished with Caddy Armor coating, which is a corrosion-resistant coating for typical construction environments. For a parking structure, wash-down area, or exterior application, confirm the exposure suits a coated carbon steel part rather than stainless.
5) What can I hang off a BC101 beam clamp?
It is used to suspend conduit, cable tray, and pipe from structural steel beams by way of threaded hanger rod. Electrical and mechanical trades both use it for overhead rod support on new construction and retrofit jobs. The clamp itself is only the beam attachment point, so you supply the rod and whatever hanger, strap, or trapeze hardware carries the conduit at the bottom of the rod.
6) Does the BC101 come with the threaded rod?
No. The BC101 is the beam attachment only. Order your 1/4 inch or #10 threaded rod, plus the nuts and the lower hanger hardware, separately.
7) Is there more than one version of the CADDY BC101 to choose from?
One configuration, ordered as model BC. Rod size is handled by the clamp's range rather than by separate part numbers, so you are not picking between an RS1 and an RS2 version.
