Thomas Betts 702-1/2 Rigid Conduit Clamp 1/2 Inch

Product Description

The THOMAS BETTS 702-1/2 is a 1/2 inch rigid conduit clamp from the Superstrut Series 700 pipe strap line. It secures IMC, rigid conduit, standard pipe, and electrical metal tubing (EMT) to Superstrut channel framing systems. The clamp is stamped from steel with a GoldGalv finish for corrosion resistance. It mounts through the slot side of the channel using a twist-insert method, eliminating the need to thread fasteners from the end of the channel. Electricians and mechanical contractors use this clamp in panel rooms, equipment bays, and exposed conduit runs where channel strut is the primary support structure.

This clamp is suited for residential, commercial, and light industrial applications wherever 1/2 inch conduit or pipe must be supported on Superstrut slotted channel. Typical installations include conduit support in electrical rooms, mechanical chases, rooftop equipment supports, and suspended ceiling grids. The 0.84 inch OD capacity matches standard 1/2 inch trade-size conduit dimensions. The through-hole mount design keeps the clamp positively located on the channel flange once twisted into place.

Key Features

• Twist-insert design seats directly into the slot side of Superstrut channel — no end-feed required
• Compatible with IMC, rigid conduit, standard pipe, and EMT in 1/2 inch trade size
• Steel construction with GoldGalv finish for corrosion resistance in typical indoor and sheltered outdoor environments
• 0.84 inch OD capacity matches standard 1/2 inch conduit outside diameter
• Through-hole mount provides a positive, stable connection to the channel

Compatibility

Designed for use with IMC, rigid conduit, standard pipe, and electrical metal tubing (EMT) at 1/2 inch trade size. Intended for installation on Superstrut Series 700 slotted steel channel framing.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed electrician or mechanical contractor in accordance with applicable NEC requirements for conduit support spacing. Disconnect and de-energize any circuits in the work area before securing conduit to the support channel. To mount, align the clamp with the channel slot, twist to insert, and fasten per the manufacturer and code requirements for the specific channel system in use. Do not overtighten fasteners in a way that distorts the conduit wall or shifts the clamp out of full engagement with the channel slot.
