One-piece Pipe Hanger Clips are Time Savers
Cooper B-Line, Highland, IL, has released the Kwik-Clip, a new collection of non-metallic pipe hanger clips. The Kwik-Clip has a convenient one-piece design, which results in significant time and cost savings at installation. Additionally, it requires no tools for assembly, as it easily snaps on to any channel or any 3/8-in. all-thread rod.
The Kwik-Clip is available for tubing O.D. ranges of 3/8-in. to 2 1/8-in. Its innovative design eliminates metal-to-metal contact with metal tubing, which prevents costly galvanic corrosion. The channel mount clips (BPIC and BPSC) can be used with insulation, maintaining an unbroken barrier seal and eliminating sweating.
The Kwik-Clip meets the UL2043 requirements for plenum rating, as well as the UL94 HB flame rating. It has a working temperature range of -40F to 275F. — Cooper B-Line cooperbline.com
