Overview

The ABB E978HCRL Conduit Support Strap is a non-metallic, polypropylene mounting solution engineered specifically for 1-1/2 inch conduits, including Schedule 40 and 80 rigid PVC, EMT, IMC, and steel conduits. Constructed from durable, high-impact polypropylene, this strap resists corrosion, chemicals, moisture, and UV exposure, ensuring long-term performance in exposed outdoor environments, industrial facilities, or corrosive atmospheres. The strap measures 3.53 inches in length, 1 inch in width, and 2.40 inches in height, providing a secure and stable fit for conduits while maintaining flexibility to accommodate thermal expansion and contraction without deformation or loosening. Its non-conductive polypropylene composition prevents galvanic corrosion and eliminates electrical interference risks common with metallic alternatives, making it ideal for sensitive applications in power distribution, renewable energy projects, and building automation systems where reliable conduit support is essential. The snap-on design enables quick, tool-free installation, reducing labor time and simplifying maintenance access. Each strap is designed for high-load applications, with a weight of approximately 5 lbs per unit, and is supplied in standard cartons of 15 units for efficient bulk handling and storage. The strap’s design also allows for easy removal and repositioning without damaging the conduit or surrounding structure, enhancing its versatility in dynamic installation scenarios.
