Sioux Chief 523-1620 Short Power Bar Bracket with 2 TouchDown Pipe Clamps

Sioux Chief 523-1620 Short Power Bar Bracket with 2 TouchDown Pipe Clamps

The Sioux Chief 523-1620 is a short-profile Power Bar mounting bracket built for rough-in plumbing support, featuring 2 TouchDown clamp points that secure tube and pipe along a single mounting rail. It clamps 1/4" - 1" CTS tube and 1/8" - 1" Sch. 40 pipe, giving plumbers one bracket that covers multiple supply and drain line sizes on a single job instead of stocking a separate hanger for each size. The compact "short" bracket length fits tight stud bays and limited backing space where a full-length Power Bar won't work, and the bracket is manufactured in the United States for use on residential and commercial rough-in jobs.

Key Features

• Trade Size: Clamps 1/4" - 1" CTS tube and 1/8" - 1" Sch. 40 pipe, so a single bracket handles multiple supply and DWV line sizes on the same run.
• 2 TouchDown Clamps: Two integrated TouchDown clamp points hold tube and pipe securely to the bracket rail at separate locations, reducing the number of individual hangers a plumber needs to install and inspect.
• Short Power Bar Profile: A compact, shortened bracket length designed for installations where stud bay depth or backing space is limited compared to a full-length Power Bar bracket.
• Multi-Size Line Support: One bracket accommodates both CTS tube and Sch. 40 pipe runs, useful where PEX, CPVC, or copper supply lines share a bay with rigid Schedule 40 drain or vent pipe.
• Rough-In Ready: Built for behind-the-wall and under-floor plumbing support, mounting to framing members ahead of rock or subfloor for a clean, secure pipe run.
• Country of Origin: Manufactured in the United States.
