Sioux Chief 504-3 1/2"– 3/4" CTS Tube Nailer

The Sioux Chief 504-3 Tube Nailer is a rough-in support bracket sized for 1/2" and 3/4" CTS tubing, used to anchor tube directly to wood studs and joists before walls are closed in. Built for CTS (copper tube size) supply runs, it holds PEX or copper tubing in place during stub-out and distribution work, keeping the tube centered in the stud bay and reducing shifting or sagging before insulation, blocking, or drywall goes up. Because it nails straight into framing, it lets a plumber set a supply line's position early in the rough-in sequence and keep that position through the rest of the job. It is packaged in bulk for professional plumbing rough-in crews and distributors rather than for single-unit retail sale, so a full case supports a run of stub-outs across a job site instead of just one connection.

Key Features

  • Trade Size: Fits 1/2" and 3/4" CTS tubing, covering two of the most common rough-in supply sizes with a single bracket.
  • Tube Nailer Design: Nails directly into wood framing to anchor tubing at a fixed point, holding the run steady through rough-in inspection and cover-up.
  • CTS Sizing: Sized to copper tube size (CTS) outside diameters, so it seats correctly on CTS-dimensioned PEX or copper tubing rather than IPS-sized pipe.
  • Material Compatibility Note: Vinyl-coated hooks should not be used with CPVC pipe or fittings, so confirm hanger material compatibility before pairing any coated hanger with a CPVC run.
  • Bulk Packaging: Supplied with a case quantity of 1000 and a minimum order quantity of 100, matching contractor and distributor ordering volumes rather than single-piece retail packs.

Why Sioux Chief?

Sioux Chief is a long-established name in rough-in plumbing supply, and the 504-3 Tube Nailer reflects that trade-focused approach: a simple, purpose-built bracket sized to the CTS tubing plumbers already run behind the wall. Packaged in bulk quantities rather than for one-off retail use, it is built for job-site efficiency, giving crews a straightforward way to anchor supply tubing at the stud without improvising with generic hardware. For plumbers and contractors standardizing on CTS-sized PEX or copper tubing, a dedicated tube nailer like the 504-3 keeps rough-in support consistent from stub-out to stub-out across a job.

Sioux Chief 5043 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Sioux Chief 504-3 tube nailer hold 1/2 inch PEX and 3/4 inch copper, or do I need separate brackets for each size?
One bracket covers both. The 504-3 tube nailer is sized for 1/2 inch and 3/4 inch CTS tubing, so a single part handles the two most common rough-in supply sizes on PEX or copper runs.
2) Can I use a tube nailer on IPS-sized pipe like CPVC or PVC?
No. The 504-3 is dimensioned to copper tube size (CTS) outside diameters, so it seats on CTS PEX or copper and not on IPS-sized pipe. For an IPS run you need a hanger sized to IPS dimensions instead.
3) What does a tube nailer attach to, and when in the job does it go in?
It nails straight into wood studs and joists, so it goes in during rough-in before the walls are closed. The point is to fix the tube's position early and hold it there through inspection, insulation, blocking, and drywall, keeping the run centered in the stud bay instead of shifting or sagging.
4) What is the minimum order on the Sioux Chief 504-3 tube nailer?
It ships bulk, not retail packed: minimum order is 100 pieces and a full case is 1000. That matches a contractor running stub-outs across a whole job or a distributor stocking the bin, rather than someone needing one or two clips.
5) Is it safe to use a vinyl-coated hook or hanger on a CPVC water line?
No. Vinyl-coated hooks should not be used with CPVC pipe or fittings, so check the hanger material before pairing any coated hanger with a CPVC run. For CPVC, use a support whose material is rated for contact with it.
6) Is a tube nailer the right choice for securing stub-outs, or should I use a drop-ear or stub-out bracket?
A tube nailer anchors the tubing itself to framing at a chosen point, which is what you want for positioning and supporting a supply run behind the wall before cover-up. It does not provide a threaded termination. If the stub-out needs to land a fitting or valve at a fixed height with a threaded outlet, that calls for a stub-out bracket or drop-ear ell rather than the 504-3.
7) What is the part number for the Sioux Chief 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch CTS tube nailer?
Sioux Chief 504-3, manufacturer part number 5043. It is the CTS tube nailer covering 1/2 inch and 3/4 inch supply tubing.
