nVent CADDY IDS3 Spring Steel T-Bar to Track Support Clip
The nVent CADDY IDS3 is a spring steel independent support clip designed to attach from a suspended ceiling T-bar to an overhead track or structural member, giving installers a code-conscious way to independently support conduit, cable, or pipe runs rather than resting them on the ceiling grid. As part of the nVent CADDY IDS support clip line, the IDS3 is available in T-Bar sizes ranging from 9/16" to 1-1/2", allowing installers to match the clip to the specific T-bar profile used in the ceiling grid on a given job. The T-Bar to Track configuration lets crews quickly tie support wires or rods back to structural steel or a track above the ceiling, keeping raceways and cable runs properly supported and consistently spaced along their length. A clear IDS model designation and size range simplify inventory, truck stock, and reordering for contractors working across multiple T-bar sizes on the same project.
Key Features
- T-Bar Size Range: Available in 9/16", 15/16", and 1-1/2" T-Bar sizes to match common suspended ceiling grid profiles.
- Spring Steel Construction: Spring steel body provides a secure, durable grip on the T-bar for long-term holding strength.
- T-Bar to Track Configuration: Attaches from the ceiling T-bar to an overhead track or structural member, enabling independent support separate from the ceiling grid.
- Dedicated Support Clip: Purpose-built as a support clip rather than a general-purpose fastener, giving installers an option sized for the exact T-bar profile.
- Part of the nVent CADDY IDS Line: Belongs to the broader nVent CADDY IDS independent support clip series, letting contractors standardize on one clip family across multiple T-bar sizes.
- Simplified Rough-In: Clear size marking and quick attachment reduce guesswork and field labor when tying off support wires or rods.
- Consistent Support Spacing: Using a correctly sized clip on every run helps installers maintain even, consistent support spacing across a project.

Why nVent CADDY?
nVent CADDY is known among electrical and mechanical trades for fastening and support products built to hold up to jobsite demands. The IDS3 spring steel support clip carries that same focus, giving contractors a simple, purpose-built way to independently support conduit, cable, or pipe from a T-bar to a track or structural member across a range of common T-Bar sizes. Standardizing on nVent CADDY IDS clips across a project can help installers maintain consistent support spacing and a cleaner, more organized run from rough-in through final inspection.
