Eaton NBP-8-A6 Acoustical Tee Fastener 0.5 Inch Emt

Product Description

The EATON NBP-8-A6 is a top mount T-bar fastener from the B-Line series, designed to secure 0.5 inch EMT conduit to acoustical tee bar ceiling grid systems. This hardware fitting provides a clean, code-friendly method of supporting conduit runs at suspended ceiling T-bar intersections. Compact in form at 1 inch height, 1 inch length, and 1 inch width, it weighs just 0.062 pounds, making it practical for high-volume installations. Electricians use this fastener when routing branch circuit or low-voltage conduit above drop ceilings in commercial and light industrial spaces.

The NBP-8-A6 is suited for commercial office, retail, healthcare, and light industrial environments where EMT conduit must be routed above a suspended acoustical tile ceiling. It mounts directly to the T-bar grid from the top, keeping conduit secured without damaging ceiling tiles or grid flanges. This type of fastener is a standard fixture in tenant improvement and new commercial construction projects where EMT distribution above drop ceilings is common practice.

Do not exceed the conduit fill or support spacing limits specified in the applicable NEC edition.
