Greenfield 485-1 Copper Split Ring Hanger 1 Inch

Product Description

The GREENFIELD 485-1 is a split ring hanger designed to support 1-inch copper tubing in plumbing and mechanical piping systems. Split ring hangers secure horizontal runs of pipe to structural members such as joists, beams, and strut channel. The two-piece ring design allows the pipe to be seated without threading, then closed to lock the pipe in place. This type of hanger is a standard component in residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC refrigerant piping, and hydronic systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters use split ring hangers as a code-compliant method of pipe support.

The 485-1 is sized for 1-inch copper tubing, making it appropriate for domestic water supply lines, drain-waste-vent stub-outs, refrigerant suction lines, and hydronic supply and return runs where 1-inch copper is specified. It is used in both new construction and retrofit applications where pipe support must be added or replaced.

Key Features

• Split ring design allows fast pipe seating without threading the hanger onto the pipe
• Sized for 1-inch copper tubing for a secure, proper fit

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters in accordance with applicable plumbing codes such as the IPC. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before working on any active piping. Use the appropriate threaded rod or fastener rated for the pipe load and spacing interval required by the applicable code. Do not overtighten the hanger closure against soft copper tubing, as deformation of the tube wall can restrict flow.
