Overview

The ABB CB11/2-B PVC Coated Clamp-Back Spacer is a precision-engineered industrial pipe support solution designed for secure and durable installation in demanding environments. This high-performance spacer is specifically engineered for 1-1/2 inch (41 metric) pipes, ensuring compatibility with standard one-hole pipe straps for seamless integration into plumbing, HVAC, and industrial piping systems. Constructed from robust malleable iron, the CB11/2-B delivers exceptional strength and resilience, while the light blue PVC coating provides enhanced corrosion resistance and ease of installation. The protective PVC layer not only safeguards against environmental wear but also improves grip and reduces vibration, making it ideal for applications subject to mechanical stress or moisture exposure. With a compact and reliable design, this spacer ensures consistent pipe alignment and support, reducing the risk of sagging or misalignment over time. The nominal 0.015" (15 mil) PVC coating provides superior corrosion protection, while the clamp-back design allows for air flow between the conduit and mounting surface, preventing moisture buildup and extending the lifespan of the installation. Compatible with one-hole pipe straps, the CB11/2-B is available in light blue, gray, or white, with custom colors available upon request. This spacer is part of ABB’s Ocal® corrosion-resistant conduit systems, trusted for reliability in commercial buildings, manufacturing facilities, and infrastructure projects. The product is designed to meet stringent industry standards and is ideal for professionals seeking long-lasting performance and installation simplicity.
