Product Description
The OATEY 33900 is a half-style pipe clamp with a preloaded nail, designed for fast mechanical fastening of 1/2 inch copper tube size piping to wood framing members. The preloaded nail eliminates the need to handle loose fasteners during installation, speeding up rough-in work on multi-fixture jobs. The plastic body creates a buffer between the pipe and the framing surface, reducing metal-to-metal contact and dampening sound transmission through the structure. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this clamp in new construction and remodel applications where copper water supply or hydronic distribution lines require secure, code-compliant support.
This clamp is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing installations using 1/2 inch copper tube. It is commonly applied along floor joists, wall studs, and ceiling framing to support horizontal and vertical copper pipe runs. The half-clamp profile allows the pipe to seat from one side without wrapping, which speeds placement when working in confined framing bays. It is also compatible with hydronic heating system distribution piping where 1/2 inch copper tube is used. The 100-count polybag quantity is sized for production framing crews working through multi-unit or multi-floor projects.
Key Features
- Preloaded nail allows single-hand installation without loose fasteners
- Half-clamp profile seats onto pipe from one direction for fast placement in tight framing
- Plastic body isolates pipe from framing surface, reducing sound transmission
- Sized for 1/2 inch copper tube piping
- Compatible with hydronic heating system distribution lines
- 100-count polybag pack suited for production-volume rough-in work
Compatibility
Designed for use with 1/2 inch copper tube size piping in residential and light commercial plumbing systems, including potable water supply and hydronic heating distribution applications.
Installation Notes
Installation is performed by licensed plumbers during rough-in framing stages before wall or ceiling finishes are applied. Ensure the framing surface is structurally sound and that clamp spacing meets local plumbing code support-interval requirements for copper tube. Drive the preloaded nail fully into the framing member so the clamp flange seats flush against the surface. Do not use this clamp as a structural hanger on vertical drops exceeding code-allowed intervals without supplemental support.
