Thomas Betts e-145-1/2 Standard Hex Nut 1/2 in Steel

Product Description

The THOMAS BETTS e-145-1/2 is a standard hex nut designed for use with channel and strut framing systems. Manufactured from steel with a GoldGalv finish, it provides corrosion resistance suited to both indoor and outdoor installations. The nut measures 1/2 inch nominal diameter with a thread pitch of 13 TPI, making it a direct fit for standard 1/2-inch threaded rod and channel hardware. It is installed by electricians, HVAC technicians, and pipefitters who work with strut framing systems to support conduit, pipe, duct, and mechanical equipment.

This hex nut is intended for channel and strut framing applications, including the assembly of strut support systems used in commercial and industrial electrical, mechanical, and plumbing installations. It mates with standard strut channel components and 1/2-inch threaded rod. The GoldGalv finish makes it appropriate for use in environments where light corrosion resistance is required.

Key Features

• Standard hex nut profile for use in channel and strut framing assemblies
• 1/2 inch nominal diameter with 13 TPI thread specification
• Steel construction for reliable mechanical strength
• GoldGalv finish for corrosion resistance in typical installation environments
• Designed for channel strut applications per T&B Superstrut system standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style component for use with standard 1/2-inch channel and strut framing systems in electrical, mechanical, and plumbing support applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed electricians or mechanical contractors working with strut framing systems. De-energize any nearby electrical circuits before working in close proximity to live conductors. Use appropriately sized wrenches to achieve a secure fit without over-torquing threaded connections. Installation should conform to applicable NEC or local mechanical code requirements for support and framing assemblies.
