Pro-source CT138R 25 Split Ring Hanger 3/8 in 652 Lb

Product Description

The PRO-SOURCE CT138R 25 is a malleable iron split ring hanger designed to support pipe in mechanical, plumbing, and HVAC installations. The split ring design allows the hanger to be opened and closed around the pipe without full disassembly of the rod assembly, saving time during install. Rated at 652 pounds load capacity with a 3/8-inch rod size, this hanger is built for overhead pipe support applications where reliable, long-term holding strength is required. Weighing 0.12 pounds, it is a compact component suited for individual use or high-volume installation runs.

Split ring hangers of this type are commonly installed by plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC mechanics in residential and commercial construction. They are used to suspend copper, steel, and other rigid pipe from structural members using threaded rod. The 3/8-inch rod size is a standard dimension widely used in light-to-medium pipe support applications, making this hanger a staple in mechanical room builds, new construction rough-in, and retrofit work where existing rod is already in place.

Key Features

• Malleable iron construction provides durability and resistance to deformation under sustained load
• Split ring design allows installation around pipe without removing threaded rod
• 652-pound load capacity suitable for medium-duty pipe support applications
• 3/8-inch rod size matches standard threaded rod used in most light commercial and residential piping systems
• Compact and lightweight at 0.12 pounds for easy handling and bulk installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and new-installation component for pipe support systems using 3/8-inch threaded rod in plumbing, HVAC, and mechanical piping applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following IPC or IFGC requirements for pipe support spacing and hanger type. Ensure the threaded rod and structural attachment point are rated to handle the combined pipe, fluid, and insulation load before installing. Open the split ring around the pipe before tightening onto the rod to avoid damaging the hanger or pipe. Always verify that the hanger material is compatible with the pipe material to prevent galvanic corrosion in wet environments.
