Thomas Betts SSF-CK535 Drop Wire Conduit Hanger 1/2 in Emt

Product Description

The THOMAS BETTS SSF-CK535 is a drop wire mounted flexible conduit hanger designed for 1/2 inch EMT installations. Constructed from spring steel with an anodized finish, this one-piece hanger provides a secure, vibration-resistant support point where conduit must transition from a rigid overhead structure to a flexible drop wire mount. It is used by licensed electricians in commercial and industrial settings where conduit runs require suspended or drop-wire support. The one-piece design eliminates loose hardware and speeds up installation on high-volume conduit runs.

This hanger is suited for use with EMT and rigid conduit in suspended ceiling grids, open-bay commercial buildings, and industrial facilities where drop wire mounting is the preferred or code-required support method. It fits 1/2 inch EMT conduit and is a direct cross-reference to Minerallac BW4, Raco BW4, and Gedney KX, making it a standard interchange part across common distributor catalogs. Typical applications include lighting branch circuits, low-voltage control wiring, and general-purpose power distribution conduit runs.

Key Features

• One-piece spring steel construction — no loose hardware or secondary fasteners required
• Anodized finish for corrosion resistance in commercial interior environments
• Drop wire mount design suits suspended and open-structure conduit support applications
• Compatible with both EMT and rigid conduit
• Crosses to Minerallac BW4, Raco BW4, and Gedney KX for easy sourcing substitution

Compatibility

Designed for use with 1/2 inch EMT and rigid conduit. Cross-references include Minerallac part number BW4, Raco part number BW4, and Gedney part number KX.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC requirements for conduit support spacing and drop wire mounting methods. De-energize all circuits in the work area before securing conduit hangers near existing wiring. The spring steel clip design snaps onto drop wire supports without tools, but verify the drop wire gauge and load rating are adequate for the conduit run weight before installing. Do not exceed the conduit size specified — this hanger is sized for 1/2 inch conduit only.
