Eaton B3690-2 Adjustable J-hanger 2.5 in Max Pipe Wall

Product Description

The EATON B3690-2 is a Type 5 adjustable J-hanger from the B-Line series, designed to support pipe or conduit in wall-mount applications. Constructed from steel with a yellow zinc chromate finish, this hanger accommodates a maximum pipe size of 2.5 inches. The adjustable design allows installers to fine-tune hanger position during rough-in, reducing the need for custom fabrication on the job. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, mechanical contractors, and electrical contractors install this hanger in commercial and residential mechanical systems where secure, corrosion-resistant pipe support is required.

This J-hanger is specifically noted for use with insulated pipe in conjunction with the B3151 pipe shield, making it well suited for chilled water lines, refrigerant piping, and other insulated piping systems where protecting the insulation jacket at the support point is critical. The wall-mount configuration positions pipe runs close to structural surfaces, helping maintain clean, code-compliant pipe layouts in mechanical rooms, utility corridors, and similar spaces.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or mechanical contractor following applicable building and mechanical codes. Confirm that the wall substrate and anchor hardware are rated for the combined load of the hanger, pipe, and fluid before fastening. When used with insulated pipe, install the appropriate pipe shield to prevent compression or damage to the insulation jacket at the support point. De-energize or depressurize the associated system before servicing any existing hangers or repositioning pipe runs.
