Pro-source B138R 50 Split Ring Hanger 3/8 in 989 Lb Malleable Iron

Product Description

The PRO-SOURCE B138R 50 is a split ring hanger designed to support pipe runs from threaded rod in mechanical, plumbing, and HVAC installations. Constructed from malleable iron, it provides a load capacity of 989 pounds and accepts 3/8-inch rod. The two-piece split ring design clamps around the pipe and suspends from overhead structure via threaded rod, keeping pipe secured at the correct elevation and spacing. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this type of hanger during rough-in on both commercial and residential projects.

Split ring hangers are used wherever pipe must be suspended from ceilings, joists, or structural members. This hanger is suited for overhead piping runs in mechanical rooms, utility spaces, and interstitial floors. The 3/8-inch rod size and malleable iron construction make it appropriate for a wide range of pipe sizes and moderate-load applications across water supply, drain, waste, vent, and hydronic systems. Its single-unit packaging allows incremental purchasing for service calls or small repairs alongside full-case procurement for new construction.

Installation Notes

Split ring hangers are typically installed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following IPC and IFGC hanger spacing requirements for the pipe material and fluid type. Shut off and depressurize the piping system before making any modifications to an existing supported run. Use properly rated threaded rod and hardware rated for the combined pipe, fluid, and insulation load. Do not exceed the stated 989 lb load capacity for this hanger.
