Thomas Betts 1278 Pipe Conduit Strap 1 Inch Galvanized

Product Description

The THOMAS BETTS 1278 is a hot dipped galvanized steel pipe and conduit strap designed to secure 1-inch pipe or conduit to structural surfaces. Constructed from steel with a hot dipped galvanized finish, this strap provides corrosion resistance suited for both indoor and outdoor applications. It features a single mounting hole and accepts a 1/4-inch bolt for a straightforward, reliable attachment. Electricians, plumbers, and mechanical contractors use this type of strap as a standard fastener when supporting conduit runs, water lines, or other piping at fixed intervals.

This strap is used in residential and commercial installations wherever 1-inch pipe or conduit requires periodic support along walls, ceilings, joists, or framing members. Typical applications include EMT or rigid conduit runs, copper or steel water supply lines, and similar round pipe of the same nominal size. The single-hole design keeps installation fast when working across multiple support points along a run.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed electricians or plumbers depending on the application. De-energize any circuits and shut off water supply before securing conduit or pipe at new support points. Use appropriately rated anchors or fasteners for the structural substrate, and observe spacing requirements per NEC or IPC as applicable to the system being supported. Do not overtighten the mounting bolt, as deforming the strap can compromise the hold on the pipe or conduit.
