Nvent BC Beam Clamp 1/4 Inch Rod 1/2 Inch Max Flange

Product Description

The NVENT BC is a top-mounted, light-duty beam clamp designed for suspending threaded rod from standard structural flange widths. Built from spring steel, it accepts a 1/4 inch diameter threaded rod and accommodates flanges up to 1/2 inch thick. The compact design allows fast, tool-light installation in overhead applications, making it a practical choice for electrical, mechanical, and plumbing tradespeople who need a dependable rod-support point on beam flanges without drilling or welding.

This clamp is suited for light-duty suspension work in commercial and industrial settings where standard flange widths are present. Typical applications include hanging conduit runs, small pipe hangers, and cable tray support rods from structural steel beams. The top-mount configuration keeps the rod directly below the beam flange, maintaining a clean vertical drop for rod-supported assemblies.

• Top-mounted design positions threaded rod directly below beam flange
• Spring steel construction provides secure clamping on standard flange widths
• Accepts 1/4 inch diameter threaded rod
• Compatible with flanges up to 1/2 inch thick
• Light-duty rating suits a wide range of suspension applications
• No drilling or welding required for installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style suspension fitting for use with standard structural beam flanges in light-duty rod-hanging applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by electricians, pipefitters, or mechanical contractors working on overhead support systems. Confirm that the beam flange thickness does not exceed 1/2 inch before seating the clamp. Verify load ratings against the suspended assembly weight before relying on the clamp in service. Follow applicable NEC or IPC guidelines for support spacing of conduit or piping runs.
