Fig. 41H Hinge Split Ring Plain Finish

Suspend pipe from above — the standard clevis alternative. Hinge split ring hangers open on a hinge for fast pipe installation without threading the hanger onto the pipe. Pre-Galvanized finish.

• Hinged design — opens for fast pipe installation without disassembly
• Hangs from threaded hanger rod (3/8" or 1/2" rod typical)
• Supports horizontal pipe runs suspended from structure above
• Pre-Galvanized finish
• MSS SP-58 Type 8 compliant

Overview

Fig. 41H Hinge Split Ring Plain Finish is a hinge split ring hanger for suspending horizontal pipe runs from threaded rod and structure above. Split ring hangers are one of the most common pipe suspension methods in commercial and industrial mechanical systems — they install quickly, provide reliable support, and are adjustable via the threaded rod length. The hinged design allows the ring to swing open for fast pipe installation, then snap closed and bolt secure — significantly faster than standard split rings on long runs.

Common Uses

• Suspending horizontal pipe runs from concrete decks and structural steel
• Commercial plumbing, HVAC, and mechanical piping systems
• Water, steam, gas, and refrigerant pipe suspension
• Institutional and industrial building mechanical systems
• Any application requiring rod-suspended pipe support

Key Features

• Hinged ring — opens and closes for fast installation on long runs
• Threaded rod connection (standard 3/8" or 1/2" rod)
• Height adjustable via rod length
• Pre-Galvanized steel
• MSS SP-58 Type 8 compliant

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a split ring hanger used for?

Split ring hangers suspend horizontal pipe runs from threaded rods anchored to structure above — decks, beams, or joists. They are one of the most common pipe support methods in commercial construction.

What is the difference between a split ring and a hinge split ring?

A standard split ring bolts together around the pipe. A hinge split ring opens on a hinge for faster pipe installation — the ring swings open, pipe drops in, ring closes and bolts. Faster on long runs.

What rod size do split ring hangers use?

Most split ring hangers for common pipe sizes use 3/8" threaded rod. Larger sizes may require 1/2" rod. Check load tables for your specific pipe size and weight.

Why use copper-plated hangers on copper pipe?

Steel-to-copper contact creates galvanic corrosion that degrades the pipe. Copper-plated hangers eliminate this contact point.

Why Contractors Choose This Product

• Hinge design cuts installation time on long pipe runs — open, drop, close, bolt vs. disassemble-reassemble each hanger
• Height adjustable via rod length — no pre-cutting or fixed-dimension hardware needed
• Galvanized finish is the standard for commercial mechanical applications
• MSS SP-58 compliant — meets the pipe support standard on commercial and institutional projects
