Sioux Chief 551-3 Pipe Strap with Nail 3/4 Inch

Product Description

The SIOUX CHIEF 551-3 is a 3/4 inch full pipe strap with nail, designed to secure and support piping runs in residential and light commercial plumbing installations. This one-piece fastening strap drives directly into wood framing with an integrated nail, eliminating the need for a separate fastener. It is a standard go-to component for plumbers securing copper, PVC, CPVC, or similar pipe to joists, studs, and blocking. The strap holds pipe firmly against the framing surface to prevent movement, vibration, and noise in the line.

The SIOUX CHIEF 551-3 is used in new construction and retrofit plumbing work wherever 3/4 inch pipe must be anchored to wood substrate. Typical applications include supply line runs in walls and floor cavities, drain and vent rough-in, and general utility piping support. It is sized specifically for 3/4 inch nominal pipe and is installed quickly by hand or with a hammer, making it a practical choice for high-volume rough-in work.

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified tradespeople following local plumbing code requirements, including the IPC. Shut off the water supply and relieve line pressure before repositioning any existing piping. Drive the integrated nail into solid wood framing using a hammer, ensuring the strap seats flush against the pipe and substrate. Do not overtighten or deform the strap, as this can restrict pipe expansion and cause long-term stress on the fitting.
