Anvil 0500016142 Center Beam Clamp 8 in 3/8 Rod 1000 Lb

Product Description

The ANVIL 0500016142 is a center beam clamp designed to support threaded rod from structural steel I-beams and wide-flange beams. It accommodates a maximum flange width of 8 inches and accepts 3/8 inch threaded rod, making it a standard choice for suspending pipe hangers, HVAC ductwork supports, electrical conduit runs, and mechanical piping systems from overhead steel framing. Constructed from carbon steel, this clamp carries a load capacity of 1,000 pounds. Licensed mechanical contractors, pipefitters, and electricians typically specify this hardware when routing systems beneath structural steel in commercial and industrial construction.

This clamp is suited for use in commercial and industrial applications where threaded rod must be suspended from I-beam or wide-flange beam flanges. It is commonly installed in mechanical rooms, equipment areas, and open-ceiling commercial spaces to support pipe runs, conduit, and ductwork. The 8 inch maximum flange width accommodates a broad range of standard structural steel beam sizes used in these settings.

Key Features

• Accepts up to 8 inch flange width for compatibility with a wide range of structural steel beams
• 3/8 inch rod size for standard threaded rod suspension hardware
• 1,000 pound load capacity rated for commercial mechanical and electrical support applications
• Carbon steel construction provides strength for heavy-duty overhead support duty
• Center beam mounting style positions the rod drop at the center of the beam flange

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-spec center beam clamp for use with 3/8 inch threaded rod hanger systems on structural I-beams and wide-flange beams with flanges up to 8 inches wide.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed pipefitters, mechanical contractors, or electricians working under applicable building and mechanical codes. Before installing or adjusting overhead beam clamps, ensure all adjacent systems are de-energized or depressurized as required by site safety procedures. Verify that the structural beam flange width and load requirements fall within the clamp's rated specifications before tightening. Follow applicable OSHA fall protection and overhead work procedures when installing hardware at elevation.
