Holdrite 101-18 Steel Bracket 1-1/4 X 20 Inch 1/2 Inch Cts

Product Description

The HOLDRITE 101-18 is a copper-bonded steel bracket designed to support and position 1/2-inch copper tubing (CTS) in residential and light commercial plumbing installations. Measuring 1-1/4 inches wide by 20 inches long, the bracket features 5/8-inch holes on 2-inch centers, allowing it to securely cradle copper supply lines while maintaining consistent spacing. The copper-bonded construction ensures galvanic compatibility with copper pipe, reducing the risk of corrosion at contact points. Licensed plumbers and rough-in crews install this bracket as part of standard water supply rough-in work behind walls, inside cabinets, and within framing bays.

The 101-18 is used to position copper water supply lines feeding sinks, water closets, and other plumbing fixtures. It is suited for residential new construction and remodel applications where consistent tube positioning and secure support are required before finish work. The bracket mounts to framing or backing during rough-in, holding 1/2-inch CTS lines in place prior to connection at fixture stops or supply valves.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber during the rough-in phase before wall finish. Secure the bracket to framing or solid backing using appropriate fasteners for the substrate. When soldering copper connections near the bracket, apply heat to the pipe rather than the bracket to avoid damaging the copper bonding. Follow local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines for pipe support spacing and fastener requirements.
