Southwire 1706 Emt 1-hole Strap Steel

Product Description

The SOUTHWIRE 1706 is a steel EMT 1-hole strap designed to secure electrical metallic tubing (EMT) conduit to walls, ceilings, framing members, and structural surfaces in electrical installations. Constructed from bright zinc electroplated steel, this strap resists corrosion and provides reliable mechanical support for conduit runs. It is a standard fastening component used by licensed electricians in both residential and light commercial wiring projects. The single-hole mounting design allows for fast, straightforward attachment with a single fastener, reducing installation time on large conduit runs.

This strap is suited for use in dry and damp interior locations where EMT conduit must be supported at required intervals per NEC guidelines. It is commonly installed along stud bays, concrete block, masonry, and wood framing wherever conduit must be anchored securely. Electricians reach for this type of strap during rough-in wiring, panel feeds, and branch circuit conduit work in commercial and residential construction.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. De-energize all circuits in the work area before beginning conduit mounting work. Secure the strap to the mounting surface using an appropriate fastener for the substrate type, such as wood screws for framing or concrete anchors for masonry. Maintain conduit support spacing as required by NEC Article 358 for EMT installations.
