Asc Engineered Solutions 500009170 Beam Clamp 1/2 Inch

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 500009170 is a wide jaw wedge style C beam clamp designed for secure attachment to structural steel beams in mechanical, electrical, and plumbing installations. Built from steel with a black finish, this 1/2 inch clamp uses a wedge-locking mechanism to grip beam flanges without welding or drilling. At 0.75 pounds, it is a compact, field-ready fastening component used by pipefitters, electricians, and mechanical contractors to hang pipe, conduit, and threaded rod from I-beams and wide-flange structural members.

This beam clamp is suited for both commercial and industrial applications where a reliable, tool-installed connection to a structural beam flange is required. The wide jaw design accommodates a broader range of beam flange thicknesses compared to standard C clamps, making it useful in steel-framed buildings, mechanical rooms, and overhead utility runs. It is typically installed as part of a hanger or support assembly for piping, conduit, or ductwork systems.

Key Features

• Wide jaw opening accommodates a range of structural beam flange thicknesses
• Wedge-style locking mechanism provides a secure grip without welding or drilling
• Steel construction for strength and durability in overhead support applications
• Black finish for corrosion resistance in typical indoor mechanical environments
• 1/2 inch size fits standard threaded rod and hanger hardware
• Lightweight at 0.75 pounds for easy single-person installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitment component for 1/2 inch threaded rod hanger assemblies used in commercial and industrial structural steel beam installations.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed pipefitters, electricians, or mechanical contractors working to applicable building and mechanical codes. Before installing or adjusting beam clamps on live systems, de-energize and de-pressurize any connected piping or conduit. The wedge mechanism should be fully seated against the beam flange to ensure a secure hold before applying any load. Follow all applicable load rating guidelines and local codes when sizing and spacing hanger assemblies.
