Nvent Caddy CAT48HPBC Beam Clamp Hook Flange Bracket

Product Description

The NVENT CADDY CAT48HPBC is a beam clamp hook designed to secure threaded rod, conduit, or pipe hangers to structural steel flanges up to 0.5 inches thick. The hook portion provides a 3 inch drop, allowing installers to position supported loads at the correct elevation off a steel beam or beam flange. This type of hardware is commonly installed by electricians, mechanical contractors, and plumbers during rough-in work on commercial and light industrial projects. It is sold individually and is suited for overhead support applications where a rigid, reusable attachment point to structural steel is required.

The CAT48HPBC is used in commercial construction and industrial facilities where threaded rod hanger assemblies must attach to wide-flange steel beams, I-beams, or channel steel. Typical applications include supporting conduit runs, pipe hangers, HVAC ductwork supports, and cable tray systems from structural steel members. It is appropriate for use in ceiling plenum spaces and open-structure ceilings where the steel framing serves as the primary support grid.

Key Features

• Accommodates flanges up to 0.5 inches thick for broad structural steel compatibility
• 3 inch hook drop provides vertical offset for threaded rod hanger alignment
• Sold individually for precise quantity purchasing on each job
• Designed for use with threaded rod hanger assemblies in overhead support systems
• Rigid clamp construction holds position once installed on flange

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style beam clamp hook for use with standard threaded rod hanger systems on structural steel flanges up to 0.5 inches in thickness.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed electricians, plumbers, or mechanical contractors working on overhead support systems. De-energize or isolate any nearby electrical systems before working overhead on structural steel. Verify that the flange thickness does not exceed 0.5 inches before seating the clamp to ensure a secure, non-slip connection. Follow applicable local codes and NEC or IPC requirements for hanger spacing and load ratings when sizing the complete support assembly.
