Bridgeport Fittings 970 Right Angle Conduit Clamp 4 in

Product Description

The BRIDGEPORT FITTINGS 970 is a 4-inch right angle type conduit clamp designed to secure rigid metal conduit and intermediate metal conduit (IMC) perpendicular to structural support beams. Constructed from malleable iron, this clamp provides heavy-duty holding strength in demanding commercial and industrial conduit installations. The U-bolt design cradles the conduit, and two nuts are tightened down to lock it firmly in place. Licensed electricians and electrical contractors install this fitting as part of code-compliant conduit support systems where conduit must run at a 90-degree angle relative to the mounting surface or beam.

This clamp is suited for use in commercial construction, industrial facilities, and utility installations where rigid or IMC conduit requires secure perpendicular attachment to structural steel, wood beams, or channel strut. It is part of a broader product line of right angle conduit clamps available in trade sizes 1/2 inch through 4 inch, making it easy to specify consistent hardware across a full conduit run.

Key Features

• Malleable iron construction provides high strength and resistance to impact in heavy-duty installations
• Right angle design secures conduit perpendicular to structural support beams
• U-bolt configuration with two nuts allows straightforward installation and firm conduit retention
• Fits 4-inch trade size rigid metal conduit and IMC
• Part of a product family spanning trade sizes 1/2 inch through 4 inch

Compatibility

Designed for use with 4-inch trade size rigid metal conduit and intermediate metal conduit (IMC) in applications requiring perpendicular attachment to structural supports.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC requirements for conduit support spacing and securing methods. Power down the circuit before working in any conduit system that may contain energized conductors. Thread the conduit through the U-bolt, position the clamp against the structural support, and evenly tighten both nuts to secure the conduit without over-compressing it. Verify that the mounting surface can support the load of the conduit run and any conductors inside.
