Pro-source E138R 20 Split Ring Hanger 3/8 in 562 Lb

Product Description

The PRO-SOURCE E138R 20 is a split ring hanger designed to support pipe runs in mechanical, plumbing, and HVAC installations. Constructed from malleable iron, this hanger accepts a 3/8-inch threaded rod and carries a rated load capacity of 562 pounds. The split ring design allows the hanger to open for fast pipe insertion without fully disassembling the support assembly. Malleable iron construction provides the ductility and strength required for long-term overhead support in commercial and industrial environments. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors use this type of hanger when suspending copper, steel, or plastic pipe from ceilings and structural members.

Split ring hangers are commonly used in residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC piping, and fire suppression rough-in work. They are installed at regular intervals along pipe runs to maintain proper slope and prevent sag. The 3/8-inch rod size makes this hanger compatible with standard threaded rod used in typical suspended piping systems. This hanger suits horizontal pipe support applications where a secure, adjustable suspension point is needed at the ceiling or overhead structure.

Key Features

• Malleable iron construction for strength and impact resistance in overhead support applications
• Split ring design allows quick pipe insertion without full disassembly
• 3/8-inch rod size fits standard threaded rod commonly used in mechanical and plumbing systems
• 562-pound load capacity rated for demanding pipe support requirements
• Single-piece packaging suitable for individual replacement or small-quantity work

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation split ring hanger for suspended 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 applicable IPC and IFGC requirements for pipe support spacing and load. Ensure the overhead structural member and threaded rod assembly are rated for the combined load of the pipe, medium, and hanger before installation. De-energize or depressurize the system before modifying any existing pipe support. Do not exceed the rated 562-pound load capacity for this hanger.
