Empire 41HG0038 Split Ring Hanger 3/8 in Malleable Iron

Product Description

The EMPIRE 41HG0038 is a split ring hanger designed to support 3/8 inch nominal pipe from 3/8 inch threaded rod in overhead suspension applications. Constructed from malleable iron with an electro-galvanized finish, this hanger provides corrosion resistance suited for mechanical and plumbing rough-in work. It carries a rated load capacity of 180 pounds, making it appropriate for copper, steel, or similarly sized pipe runs in light commercial and residential construction. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this type of hanger when securing horizontal pipe runs from structural members or unistrut assemblies.

This split ring hanger is used in residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC piping, and mechanical systems where 3/8 inch nominal pipe must be suspended from threaded rod. The two-piece split ring design allows the hanger to be installed around existing pipe without threading the pipe through the fitting. The pipe outside diameter supported is 0.675 inches. This part ships individually and is ordered in single-unit quantities.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or mechanical contractors following applicable IPC and local mechanical code requirements. Shut off the water supply or system pressure before working on any active pipe run. Ensure the threaded rod anchor point is rated for the combined load of the pipe, fluid, and hanger. Inspect the electro-galvanized finish for damage before installation in areas with elevated moisture exposure.
