Sioux Chief 551 Pipe Strap with Nail

The Sioux Chief 551 Pipe Strap with Nail is a rough-in tube support built for securing tubing to framing members during new construction or remodel plumbing work. This strap-with-nail line is available in 1/2" and 3/4" sizes to match the tube being run, and each strap snaps directly onto the tubing while carrying a preloaded ring-shank nail for fast, one-step fastening - no separate fasteners or extra hardware to keep track of on the job. It is compatible with copper, PEX, and CPVC tubing across both sizes, making it a versatile choice for mixed-material rough-in runs where plumbers need one strap family that works across multiple pipe types and job requirements.

Key Features

  • Trade Size Range: Offered in 1/2" and 3/4" sizes to fit common copper, PEX, or CPVC tubing on a rough-in run.
  • Snap-On Installation: Each strap snaps onto the tube for quick positioning before fastening, speeding up rough-in labor regardless of the size selected.
  • Pre-Loaded Fastener: Includes a preloaded ring-shank nail so the strap and fastener install in a single step, with ring-shank construction providing a permanent hold once driven.
  • Multi-Material Compatibility: Works with copper, PEX, and CPVC tubing, letting plumbers standardize on one strap family across the job rather than stocking size- or material-specific hardware.
  • Alternating-Direction Installation: Designed to be installed in alternating directions along a run to help secure tubing runs more effectively over long spans.
  • Noise Reduction: Keeps the tube off the mounting surface, helping reduce waterline noise transmitted through framing members.

Technical Specifications

  • Trade Size: 1/2" and 3/4" options available
  • Country of Origin: United States
  • Packaging: 500 EA per package

Typical Applications

  • Residential and Commercial Rough-In Plumbing
  • Securing Copper, PEX, or CPVC Supply Lines to Framing
  • New Construction Water Distribution Runs
  • Remodel and Repipe Projects
  • Tube Support Behind Walls and Under Floors

Why Sioux Chief?

Sioux Chief builds rough-in plumbing hardware that plumbers rely on to move faster on the job without sacrificing a secure hold. The 551 strap family's snap-on design and preloaded ring-shank nail combine installation speed with a permanent fastening method, while its compatibility across copper, PEX, and CPVC tubing in both 1/2" and 3/4" sizes means fewer SKUs to stock and carry on a truck. Manufactured in the United States, it's a straightforward, dependable piece of rough-in hardware for any supply-line installation, whether the run calls for the smaller 1/2" size or the larger 3/4" size covered by this strap family.

Sioux Chief 551-2 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Sioux Chief 551 pipe strap work on PEX, or is it only for copper?
Copper, PEX, and CPVC tubing all work with the 551 strap, in both the 1/2 inch and 3/4 inch sizes. That is the point of the line: one strap family for a mixed-material rough-in instead of separate hardware for each tube type.
2) Do I need to size the pipe strap to the tube, or does one size cover both 1/2 and 3/4 inch runs?
Size it to the tube. The 551 comes as 551-2 for 1/2 inch tubing and 551-3 for 3/4 inch tubing, and the strap snaps onto the tube it is sized for. If you are running both sizes on a job, order both.
3) Do I have to buy nails separately for these pipe straps?
No. Each 551 strap ships with a ring-shank nail already loaded in it, so the strap and fastener go in as one step. The ring shank holds permanently once driven, which also means it is not a strap you plan on removing later.
4) How should pipe straps with nails be installed along a long tubing run?
Install the 551 straps in alternating directions as you work down the run. Alternating the orientation holds the tubing more securely over long spans than running every strap the same way. The strap also stands the tube off the framing surface, which cuts waterline noise carried through studs and joists.
5) Is this the right support for tubing behind walls and under floors, or do I need a hanger?
The 551 is a rough-in tube strap: it fastens tubing directly to a framing member with its nail, so it is meant for supply lines run through studs, behind walls, and under floors during new construction or remodel. For suspending pipe off structure where there is no framing face to nail into, you want a hanger rather than a nail-on strap.
6) Are Sioux Chief 551 pipe straps sold in bulk for a repipe job?
They come 500 each per package, which suits new construction water distribution and whole-house repipe work where you are setting straps every few feet. They are made in the United States.
