Metallics MSC50R – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the Metallics MSC50R swivel hanger used for?
The MSC50R is a swivel hanger sized for 1/2 inch, used to suspend an octagon box, typically for a fixture drop off threaded rod or pipe. The swivel lets the box hang plumb even when the support above is not. It is steel with a zinc finish.
2) Will the MSC50R swivel hanger thread onto 1/2 inch rod or conduit?
It is the 1/2 inch size in the Metallics swivel hanger line, so it mates with 1/2 inch threaded support. Confirm the rod or nipple on your drop is 1/2 inch and not 3/8 inch before ordering, since the sizes are not interchangeable.
3) How many swivel hangers come in a Metallics MSC50R bag?
The MSC50R ships as a single hanger in a bag, so order one per box you are hanging rather than expecting a carton quantity.
4) Is the MSC50R hanger zinc plated for damp or garage locations?
The MSC50R is steel with a zinc plating, which is the standard corrosion coating for interior electrical support. Zinc plated steel is not the choice for direct weather exposure or washdown areas; for those, use a stainless or hot dip galvanized support instead.
5) Does the MSC50R work with a 4 inch octagon box?
Yes, it is made for octagon box hanging and the 1/2 inch size is what a standard octagon fixture box uses at the center knockout. It does not suit square or round plaster rings that lack a 1/2 inch threaded center.
6) Do I need anything else besides the MSC50R to hang the box?
The hanger itself is the swivel connection between the 1/2 inch support and the octagon box. You still supply the threaded rod, pipe or nipple above it, the box, and whatever structural anchor goes into the deck or joist. None of that is in the bag.
