Overview

The Panduit FRAFC58 is a two-piece framing clip designed for efficient assembly of threaded rod to auxiliary framing bars. This clip facilitates easier installation by allowing its interlocking halves to slide into position on 5/8" auxiliary framing bars. The FRAFC58 includes the necessary hardware for attaching the clip to the framing bars, simplifying the process and reducing the need for additional components. It is engineered for compatibility with standard 5/8" threaded rods, which are sold separately. The design of the FRAFC58 enables one-handed positioning and quick interlocking, significantly reducing assembly time on job sites. This product is ideal for applications such as drop ceiling grids, cable management systems, and structural framing where speed and reliability are paramount. Manufactured in the US, the FRAFC58 meets industry standards for load-bearing capacity and durability in demanding environments. Installation requires no special tools, making it a cost-effective solution for contractors and facility managers seeking to optimize installation efficiency. SKU: FRAFC58. UNSPSC: 39131705.
