Anvil 0560018806 Extension Split Pipe Clamp 3/8 Inch

Product Description

The ANVIL 0560018806 is an extension split pipe clamp designed to support and secure 3/8-inch nominal pipe in mechanical, plumbing, and HVAC piping systems. Constructed from malleable iron, this clamp delivers a rated load capacity of 180 pounds, making it a reliable choice for overhead and wall-mounted pipe support applications. The split design allows the clamp to be installed around existing pipe runs without full disassembly of the piping system. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this type of clamp as part of a pipe hanger assembly, typically paired with a threaded rod for suspended installations.

This extension split pipe clamp is suited for residential and light commercial piping installations where 3/8-inch nominal pipe is suspended from structure. It is commonly used in plumbing, HVAC refrigerant lines, hydronic systems, and general mechanical piping where a secure, adjustable pipe support is required. The malleable iron body withstands the mechanical stresses typical of suspended pipe loads in occupied buildings.

Key Features

• Malleable iron construction for strength and durability in mechanical piping applications
• Rated load capacity of 180 pounds
• Fits 3/8-inch nominal pipe size
• 3/8-inch rod diameter for standard threaded-rod hanger compatibility
• Split clamp design allows installation on existing pipe without full line disassembly

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-fit pipe support clamp for 3/8-inch nominal pipe in suspended mechanical piping assemblies using 3/8-inch threaded rod.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed plumbers or journeyman pipefitters following applicable IPC and IFGC support-spacing requirements. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system before securing the clamp if working on an active line. Use appropriate threaded rod and fasteners rated for the combined load of the pipe, fluid, and insulation. Verify that the structural attachment point can support the full suspended load before completing the hanger assembly.
