Pro-source Bgss 17 Split Ring Hanger Stainless Steel

Product Description

The PRO-SOURCE BGSS 17 is a split ring hanger designed to support pipe runs from a threaded rod suspension system. Manufactured from 304 stainless steel, it delivers corrosion resistance suitable for wet, outdoor, or chemically active environments. The hanger accepts a 3/8 inch threaded rod and wraps around the pipe with a split ring profile that allows installation without fully disassembling the support assembly. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors use this type of hanger in both new construction and retrofit applications where long-term durability and material compatibility are required.

Split ring hangers in this configuration are commonly installed in commercial and residential plumbing systems, HVAC piping, and light industrial pipe support applications. The 304 stainless steel construction makes it well suited for locations with exposure to moisture, condensation, or mild corrosives where carbon steel hangers would be prone to rust. A 3/8 inch rod size is among the most widely used in suspended ceiling and overhead pipe support layouts.

Key Features

• 304 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet and chemically active environments
• Split ring design allows installation around the pipe without full disassembly of the support
• 3/8 inch rod size fits standard threaded rod suspension hardware
• Sold individually, suitable for single-unit replacement or small-quantity installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-fit component for suspended pipe support systems using 3/8 inch threaded rod hardware.

Installation Notes

Split ring hangers are typically installed by licensed plumbers or mechanical contractors following IPC and IFGC spacing requirements for the pipe type and size being supported. Shut off and depressurize the piping system before modifying any existing support structure. Verify that the rod diameter and pipe diameter match the hanger specifications before installation. Do not overtighten the fastening hardware, as distortion of the split ring can compromise pipe support integrity.
