GRC-58-SB
We built the NSI GRC-58-SB Standard Duty Silicon Bronze Grounding Rod Clamp for demanding applications including direct burial, where the simple mechanical design and reliable clamping power of the screw outperform other options. The GRC-58-SB Grounding Rod Clamp fits over 5/8" grounding rod and 1/2" rebar with room to tighten the clamping screw onto a range of 10 AWG solid to 2 AWG stranded conductors. GRC-family clamps with the -SB suffix have a body and screw made from silicon bronze for maximum strength, and the clamp is UL-listed for direct burial in earth or concrete.
