Kindorf Channel

The Kindorf Channel System is

designed so that the maximum number

of support and framing applications

can be constructed with a minimum

amount of labor and pieces.

Uniqueness in Design

The 1d" dimension in the channel, hole

spacing and fittings means all parts fit

together, no matter where they’re used,

or at what angle. This modular dimen-

sion provides maximum flexibility in

field applications, and results in saving

inventory and labor dollars. The

Kindorf exclusive Galv-Kr¯om finish pro-

vides superior corrosion protection for

all threaded components, channel and

fittings. Through a two-part process,

the coating is applied on all finished

parts after fabrication – there is no

exposed surface where corrosion can

start.

Strength

Even though Kindorf’s Channel is

slightly smaller in dimensions, it sup-

ports the same weight as1e" channel.

Compatibility with 15⁄8"

Strut

The Kindorf System is designed so that

most accessories are compatible with

1e" strut. Conduit and pipe straps will

work equally well with 1e" and 1d"

strut. In addition, 98% of 1e" acces-

sories are interchangeable in Kindorf

Channel. Angle fittings can adapt easi-

ly to the open side of any 1e" strut and

the unique parallelogram nuts provide

secure attachment to both types of

strut.

Full Line of Support

Products

Kindorf’s many advantages are

extended into a broad product offering

including beam clamps, concrete

inserts, lighting supports, cable cleats

and a variety of threaded components.

This system is available in the largest

selection of finishes and materials

including green coated, aluminum,

stainless steel and nonmetallic. This

combined with a nationwide network of

distributors and service centers makes

Kindorf a single source for supported

metal framing needs.

Features

Channel with bolt holes

9⁄16" dia. holes on 11⁄2" centers for 11⁄2" bolts.

Kindorf’s 11⁄2" is Much More Than A Cross

Section Dimension

The 1d" with Kindorf is truly a Modular

Dimension. The channel height, width,

and prepunched hole spacings are all

1d". The angle fittings and the bolt

holes in the angle fittings are all 1d"

dimensions. Scribe marks are located

at 1d" intervals to mark the midpoint

between holes and every 6" on the side

for easy measurement.

Job site adaptability and structural

integrity are the key factors in making

strut channel an economical solution to

metal framing needs. Kindorf, with its

1d" modular dimensions allows the

installer to do more work with fewer

pieces and less labor dollars.

Here’s What The Modular Dimension Can

Do For You

Using a 1e" channel with hole spac-

ings on 1g" centers requires numerous

fittings and in many cases limits the

joint fastening to the open side of the

channel. Field drilling and welding,

plus extra fittings become the rule

rather than the exception. With con-

stant 1d" dimensions throughout the

system many structural joints can be

made with a minimum of fittings.

Consider the following:

1. The Entire Section Can be Used

You are not limited to using only the

open slot side. Because holes line up

on channel and fittings. Using the

scribe marks ensures the fittings will

work, and a straight cut is made.

2. Considerable Field Drilling and Welding

Eliminated

The holes are already there and they

are usable. Back to back; side to back;

side to side – all combinations that can

be made using B-995 Kindorf channel.

3. Field Cutting And Layout Made Simple

8 scribe marks = 1 ft. Simply count the

marks and cut. Position of holes

ensures balanced support for trapezes

on every piece, thus keeping waste to

an absolute minimum.

4. Modular Fittings Fasten To Bolt Side or

Slot Side – Unique Stud Nut

Kindorf framing fittings are engineered

for versatile use – to meet the greatest

number of framing combinations with

maximum rigidity and security. Fittings

may be fastened to the channel on

either the bolt hole side or the slot side.

The matching 1d" dimensions of chan-

nel bolt holes and fitting bolt holes pro-

vide a fast alignment and quick bolting.

Fastening on the slot side provides infi-

nite placement of the nut to match bolt-

ing requirements. Either way results in

simple “building block” erection and

permits multiple application of fittings.

With the B-911SN Stud Nut, blind fasten-

ing of angles and fixtures is eliminated.

Why Kindorf 11⁄2" Saves

You Inventory Dollars

Fewer Pieces Do More Work

By making equal use of the back of

the channel, the sides of the channel

(B-995 see page K5) and the open

slot, your options are increased.

Combine this with three simple fittings

that are 1d" wide and have 1d" hole

layout, and you have the simplest and

most versatile Channel System on the

market today.

By stocking a single channel system

and only 3 angle fittings, a multitude of

jobs can be done.

With fewer pieces doing more work,

ordering efficiency is increased and

investment dollars are decreased.

Any way you look at it – Kindorf can save

you money.

Let the modular 11⁄2" dimension work for you in saving labor and inventory dollars.

Galv-Kr¯om®

ASTM Spec. For Finish: B-633-85

Galv-Kr¯om protects the steel

against rust and corrosion. Kindorf

channels, fittings and accessories,

including all threaded parts, are Galv-

Kr¯om finish. Channel and fittings with

bolt holes are finished after holes are

punched so that it has complete Galv-

Kr¯om protection.

Galv-Kr¯om is a combination of a .5

mil of electrogalvanizing on steel and

gold zinc chromate. The base zinc

thickness is in compliance with ASTM

B633-85 Type LS coating. Zinc, unlike

organic coatings, is a sacrificial type

plating protecting the base steel from

corrosion even though it is exposed at

cut edges or scratches. The additional

gold zinc chromate film provides a

passivating nonporous barrier against

moisture and other corrosive elements.

The Galv-Kr¯om®Superior

Finish

Galv-Kr¯om is the time-tested and

proved metal finish that provides

Kindorf with an outstanding measure

of product value. It is not a paint –

won’t chip or peel. Stands up under

rough handling.

Galv-Kr¯om is a superior galvanized

finish, plus zinc chromate, resulting in

an attractive bronze lustre that needs

no painting for protection or appear-

ance. The finish is smooth, clean and

remarkably tough. When colorizing is

necessary for coding, you’ll find Galv-

Kr¯om an excellent bond for the paint of

your choice. The surface does not

require an acid wash preparation and

is non-porous and non-crystalline.

Unlike paint or enamel this surface

also offers a minimum of electrical

resistance so that electrical applica-

tions are easily grounded as required

under most electrical codes.

ASTM B 117 Test

Information and

Specifications

The B117 salt spray (fog) test is

applicable to organic and inorganic

finishes such as a paint versus plating

comparison and is highly recognized

for both industrial and military produc-

tion as a qualifying procedure. It’s use-

ful in estimating the relative behavior of

closely related material such as low

carbon steel since it simulates the

basic conditions with some accelera-

tion due to either wetness or tempera-

ture or both. The 5% salt solution is the

dissolving of 5+/-1 parts of sodium

chloride in 95 parts of water conform-

ing to Type IV water in ASTM Sped C

1193. The salt is free of nickel and

copper, containing not more than 0.1%

sodium iodide or more than 0.3% total

impurities. Temperature must be at

95F +2/-3F recorded twice daily. The

apparatus consists of a fog chamber,

reservoir, compressed air, atomizing

nozzles, specimen supports, heat

source and controls.

About the Channel

Finish Test

Performed and certified by an inde-

pendent testing laboratory, randomly

chosen channel samples were placed

in the same chamber and exposed to

a continuous salt spray. Channel ends

were sealed so that exposed cuts

were not subjected, thus measuring

the true finish resistance. The channel

sections were also suspended vertical-

ly with no other contact and positioned

to permit the free settling of fog.

During the test time cycles, the chan-

nel sections were thoroughly inspect-

ed for signs and indications of damag-

ing red rust. The Kindorf Zinc and

Gold Dichromate finish dramatically

outperformed all other tested finishes

as shown above.

Finishes and Materials

Finishes

1. Green Coated. (Suffix GR)

Green urethane powder resins are

applied electrostatically to the steel

after fabrication. Once the material is

completely covered with the pow-

dered-form urethane, it proceeds

through a 400° baking process for ten

minutes, creating a chemical bond.

This results in a minimum of 1.5 mil

thickness of urethane coating provid-

ing excellent resistance to chipping or

peeling.

2. Pregalvanized Steel. (Suffix PG)

In addition to the standard Galv-Kr¯om®

finish, all Kindorf®channels are avail-

able in pregalvanized steel. This mate-

rial is identical to the standard steel

except for its ASTM G-90 zinc coating.

This coating is applied at the steel mill

prior to the channel fabrication.

3. Electrogalvanized (Suffix EG)

Often referred to as “zinc plated” or

“electroplated zinc,” the steel and .5

mils of zinc are bonded by an electrol-

ysis process. This is the identical

process used in the Kindorf Galv-Kr¯om

finish without the numerous benefits of

the gold colored dichromate conver-

sion coat (see Galv-Kr¯om finish for

more information). Electrogalvanizing is

most commonly applied to small fit-

tings, hardware and threaded products.

4. Hot-Dipped Galvanized (Suffix HD)

The material is zinc coated after fabri-

cation providing total product protec-

tion on all surfaces. The fabricated

channel or fitting is suspended and

then dipped into tanks of hot zinc for a

prolonged period, creating a coherent

bond. The result is superior corrosion

resistance as compared to pregalva-

nized material. Hot-dipped galvanizing

is not recommended for threaded

6063 Aluminum and heat treated to a

T-6 specification.

3. Nonmetallic. (Suffix N)

Kindorf®channels are also available in

fiberglass reinforce polyester and vinyl

ester. These products are pultruded

into shapes similar to steel channels.

They offer a high degree of corrosion

protection and are very lightweight.

4. Stainless Steel. (Suffix SS)

For the most corrosive environments,

Kindorf®offers Type 304 Stainless

Steel channel sections and acces-

sories. Type 316 stainless available

upon request. Contact your local sales

rep. These products are identical to

their carbon steel counterparts except

for a much greater corrosion resis-

tance.

Warning

Load tables, charts, and design crite-

ria provided in this catalog are intend-

ed as guides only. Selection of proper

product, installation intervals, erection,

and placement are the responsibility of

the user.

Pipe hanger products when improp-

erly used as tools of erection have

occasionally failed. The user is cau-

tioned to use the product only as it

was intended, to avoid an accident.

We reserve the right to change

material and finish specifications with-

out notice, to improve our products.

products, considering the zinc coating

thickness will often disrupt the threads.

Kindorf hot-dipped galvanized is in

conformance with ASTM Specifications

A-123 (formerly A-386) and A-153.

Kindorf channels maintain a mini-

mum 1.5 ounces of zinc per square

foot of steel or 2.5 mils (ASTM A-123,

Thickness Grade 65). This finish is

also referred to as “Hot-dipped galva-

nized after fabrication.”

5. PVC Coated (Prefix P)

A polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plastic coat-

ing is fused to the channel, fitting or

accessory after fabrication by immers-

ing the part in fluidized PVC tanks. The

fused-melt mixed powder PVC coating

thickness is 15 mils (.015") plus or

minus five mils. PVC material is a ther-

moplastic and will soften in high tem-

peratures. An inherent weakness with

PVC coatings occurs when field alter-

ations are applied, such as cutting or

drilling. These acts disrupt the sealed

PVC product and warrant field touch-

up. Kindorf cannot be held responsible

for field-altered PVC coated products.

Materials

1. Standard Steel.

The standard Kindorf®Channel is

made from high quality carbon steel

sheet. These sections are cold formed

into a unique and modular profile by

an efficient roll forming process.

Additionally, the process”cold works”

the steel is to give it greater mechani-

cal properties.

2. Extruded Aluminum. (Suffix AL)

For more corrosive environments,

Kindorf®also offers extruded aluminum

channel sections. These section are

nearly identical to their steel counter-

ports. Aluminum channel is made from

Kindorf is a rugged heavy gage struc-

tural quality steel channel preformed in

a “U” shape with a continuous open

slot the entire length. The turned-in

edges serve as retaining points for the

nuts and bolts assembly of fittings to

the channel. The shape of the channel

permits infinite adjustability of the

clamping nut … simply by gliding it

along the channel to the desired posi-

tion. Spring-tensioned nuts are gener-

ally used for positioning overhead or in

vertical channel installations. A stud

nut (with spring) is provided for easy

mounting of cabinets and equipment.

Channel Nuts are specially shaped as

parallelograms with biting edges so

that when tightened, with normal pres-

sure on the bolt, the nut clamps the

sides of the channel together in a

secure connection which reinforces the

rigidity of the channel itself. The nut

rests on the ‘lips’ of the channel slot.

Continuous-slot channel framing, with

its sliding nut and bolt attachment fea-

ture, offers substantial installation

economy since no pre-measuring,

punching, drilling or welding are

required. Erection of structural framing

provides a basic system for the sup-

port of practically all electrical, industri-

al and mechanical services. The appli-

cation versatility of Kindorf eliminates

the need for individual service support

systems and results in lower over-all

installation costs for framing and sup-

ports.

An important consideration for stan-

dardizing on the Kindorf System is its

flexibility of purpose for metal framing

requirements. A supply of channel and

a select group of fittings will take care

of a majority of metal framing require-

ments. It is easy to stock – stacked like

conduit, 1000 ft. of channel takes up

less than one square foot of floor

space. Fittings and channels are

reusable – short sections are saved

and become valuable for spot arrange-

ments, which means there is no waste

in a Kindorf System.

For the support of light and medium

Bantam Channels simplify the support

of overhead fixtures, conduits, pipes

and boxes in suspended ceiling instal-

lations where they can be supported on

runs of lathers channel or directly from

bar joists or ceiling beams. Ribbed

channels may also be mounted on con-

crete forms and used as low-cost con-

tinuous slot concrete inserts.

Installed slot down the open slot

accommodates and allows easy posi-

tioning of accessory fittings or b" hang-

er rod to support light or medium weight

equipment.

The use of Kindorf Channel Bar provides

a ready made system of bars and acces-

sories designed to eliminate costly and

time consuming on-the-job improvising.

Conduit, Cable and Pipe Supports

Single or multiple runs of pipe and

cable are secured easily and economi-

cally by Kindorf supports. In the rack-

ing of multiple runs of pipe, for exam-

ple, C-105 Straps are quickly twist

inserted into a channel slot and the

pipe is installed by the tightening of a

single screw. There are no holes to drill

and position adjustment is made sim-

ple by sliding the strap along the chan-

nel slot. Runs of pipe or conduit can be

spaced with complete freedom, as

close as conduit couplings permit.

For single runs the C-149 Pipe Hanger

saves installation time by allowing the

conduit or pipe to be laid in place after

the hanger is mounted. The versatile

C-149 can be suspended from hanger

rod or bolted directly to the wall and

pipe insulation, when needed, can be

installed without removing the pipe

from the hanger.

These are but two examples of how

Kindorf products deliver lower installed

costs. Whether it be a problem of tight

spacing, adjustment, or alignment of

adequate spacing between hangers,

there’s a Kindorf support to solve it.

Kindorf pipe and cable supports are

engineered to provide safe and secure

installations. The majority of Kindorf

supports are protected by the exclu-

sive Galv-Kr¯om finish, including thread-

ed components.

There’s a wide range of Kindorf pipe

and cable supports to meet almost

every job condition, installed either in

combination with channel or individually

secured to the structure surface.

Figure 1 Figure 2

C-105 and C-106 Pipe Straps

Kindorf Pipe Straps are designed to be

twist inserted anywhere along the slot

side of the channel. Pipes can be

placed as closely as pipe couplings

permit.

Some unique features of the straps

include:

• Bolt head is combination slot and hex

head for flexibility of attachment.

• Square nut is captivated on the shoul-

der for easy one-handed tightening.

• Straps are interchangeable with 1e"

strut, for broader application.

• Straps are shipped assembled so

counting and sorting are easier.

• Pipe or conduit sizes are shown on

the strap for easy identification.

Saves installation time by allowing the conduit

or pipe to be laid in place after the hanger is

mounted. Fastening of side bolt can be delayed

until most convenient for job conditions.

Insulation can be installed without removing pipe

from hanger. The C-149 hanger can be suspend-

ed from hanger rod or can be bolted directly to a

wall. When used with hanger rod, assembly

requires two H-114 hex nuts.

Vertical adjustment of at least 11

⁄2inches after

pipe is laid in place. The lower nut adjusts pipe

lines to the proper pitch and the top nut when

locked into position prevents loosening due to

vibration. The square nut on the side bolt is kept

from loosening by the arrangement of hole and

up-turned lip.

Rest pipe in body of hanger. Fasten

side bolt when convenient.

Concrete Inserts

Buildings designed with concrete

inserts as an integral part of the ceiling

or wall construction realize many

economies, both in initial construction

and when up-

dating of the mechanical and electrical

system is required. The initial

economies of construction stem from

the ease with which pipe, air condition-

ing, lighting and other fixtures can be

attached to ceilings or walls.

Inserted by casting into the struc-

ture, Kindorf continuous-slot channels

will accept all the assembly parts and

fittings of the Kindorf system. This pro-

vides virtually limitless structural

arrangements – present and future.

Hanger attachments are made by

the standard Kindorf procedure of sim-

ply inserting a standard channel nut

which can be pre-started on the hang-

er rod or bolt. Placement or adjustment

of attachments can be made in infinite

increments at any time along the

length of the concrete insert. Future

flexibility means economies in terms of

future changes in equipment or its

placement.

Initial Installation of

Continuous-Slot Channel

Inserts Offers:

• An immediate savings in time and

labor by eliminating the need for pre-

cise calculation and measurement,

both in layout planning and actual

installation of attachment devices

• Additional savings in time and labor

because changes or additions can

be made readily to the existing chan-

nel at any time; the need for costly

drilling in concrete and other costly

procedures can be eliminated.

Companion to the channel inserts is

the spot-type insert for use where a

single hanger is required at a specific

location.

Pipe section hangs from D-990 concrete insert.

tion.

Beam Clamps and Hanger Rod Supports

H-550 Swivel beam clamp supports pipe with

C-149 hanger.

Kindorf devices for hanging the load

can deliver lower installed costs.

Hanger rod and conduit pipe supports

are attached to ceilings or to other

structural members such as beams,

columns, or purlins without drilling,

welding or fastening by means of

power actuated tools. A full selection of

beam clamps and hanger rod supports

are offered to meet a wide variety of

needs.

The flexibility of the Kindorf Series of

clamps affords a range of applications

from simple attachment of channel to

the suspending of supports from slop-

ing as well as horizontal beams.

Where high vibrations are expected

additional support can be attained by

gripping the beam on both sides. From

the simple job to the complex job with

special needs the Kindorf line of beam

clamps can fill the bill.

The following table may be used when

attaching hanger rod with Kindorf

beam clamps.

Channel raceway system supports and feeds

fluorescent lighting fixtures.

Surface Raceway and

Lighting Support

Systems

The Kindorf Lighting Support System

consists of high quality construction

materials that afford definite installation

advantages to those most concerned

with lighting installations. When used

as a Surface Metal Raceway it is U.L.

Listed and complies with National

Electrical Code Article 352.

To The Owner

A flexible installation requiring fewer

attachments to the building structure

with built-in provisions for easy mainte-

nance and future modifications when

lighting fixtures must be added, delet-

ed or relocated. Kindorf channel and

fittings form a strong, economical and

attractive support and wiring system

for fixtures and other equipment.

To The Architect and

Engineer

A system of construction least

demanding on general design condi-

tions and readily adaptable to all spac-

ing of pillars, purlins and other structur-

al components. Supply will not delay a

job because Kindorf is stocked at

many locations throughout the country.

The Kindorf System saves planning

time because it is designed for fast

and easy installation by the contractor

with little or no detailing.

To the Contractor

The Kindorf System consists of time

saving materials that will simultaneous-

ly provide for the electrical feed and

the mechanical support of lighting and

other equipment. Kindorf affords a

means of making fewer attachments to

the structure at wider spacing. It

insures true and rigid alignment and

lends itself to systematic preassembly

methods which economize on labor.

No special tools for installation and no

painting is required. Kindorf speeds all

jobs because a complete line of fittings

assures easy solution of many installa-

tion problems as they arise in the field.

Electrical Conductors

“Lay-In” the Channel

Kindorf Surface Raceway channels

provide a central wiring distribution

system with conductor capacity that

exceeds requirements of any lighting

layout and with ‘power to spare’ for

other uses. Channel adapts to any

interval of structural support – may be

dropped to any level where it

becomes a rigid platform for fixture

attachment. Lighting fixtures may be

spaced and fastened anywhere along

the channel system with “plug-in” or

direct feed electrical connection.

Branch lighting circuit conductors

are completely enclosed in channel

from panel to fixture eliminating the

ordinary “clutter” of external conduc-

tors and protecting the wires from

physical damage.

Kindorf ®

Kindorf channels, installed slot-side

down, are designed to provide fixture

support only. A range of accessory fit-

tings permit fixture attachment to the

channel safely and securely in an

approved manner. Channels with solid

base or with slots are generally used

for simple channel support systems.

Channel support systems combine

economy of investment with maximum

strength and rigidity. The continuous-

slot channel provides complete flexi-

bility of lighting layout with fixture

spacing continuous or intermittent.

Fixtures may be added or relocated to

meet changing requirements without

disturbing the basic support system.

The rigid channels maintain fixture

alignment, adapt to any interval of

structural support.

Channel should be supported a minimum of 12"

from joiner.

Channel Joiners for

Lay-In Wiring

The direction-change joiner fittings for

Kindorf Channels expand to three the

number of channel depths available

for complete raceway wiring systems.

Joiner Fittings are made for 11⁄2", 17⁄8"

and 3" depths of 11⁄2" wide channels.

These three systems provide raceway

conductor fill capacities for any light-

ing layout and with erected strength to

spare for lighting fixture support.

The Joiner Fitting rests inside the

channel without obstructing the chan-

nel, nor the lay-in of electrical conduc-

tors. No time-consuming “fishing” of

conductors at the elbows, tee and

crosses.

Installation is fast, simply insert the

fitting into the end of the channel and

turn the captive set-screw. This “jack-

screws” the fitting sidewalls beneath

the channel lips for snug, strong joints.

Standard Kindorf Channel Closure

Strip is used for a completely enclosed

raceway.

Joiners fit into end of channel. When

screws are tightened, joiner is forced

up against channel lips for secure

installation. Conductors can be laid in,

no pulling required. No need for junc-

tion boxes. Available in X, T, L and S

configurations. Support required within

12" of each joiner.

Hardware and Threaded Components

H-193 Hanger Rod supports conduit from

G-962-D hanger.

ASTM Class 2

“Threads” are an integral part of erec-

tor systems because nearly everything

hangs by – or is secured by threaded

fasteners. Kindorf threaded hardware

includes continuous rolled-thread

hanger rod, and special and standard

screws and nuts designed with the

necessary holding power to serve the

requirements of framing and hanging

installations.

It is vital that each thread be fully pro-

tected against rust and corrosion

because they are usually exposed to

corrosive atmospheres. Kindorf

threaded hardware and accessories

are completely protected by the same

Galv-Kr¯om finish that protects Kindorf

channel and fittings. Kindorf extra-

quality threads are always:

• Free-running – clean, uniform

• Corrosion resistant – no paint

required

• Burr-free – smooth finish

Trouble-free threaded hardware is an

investment in fast installation and low

maintenance. Free-running threads

are a time saving asset on every job –

saving fingers and tempers, and elimi-

nating delays that result when threads

must be specially treated before use.

Threaded rod is packed in tubes to

prevent damage during shipment.

Kindorf threaded hardware is pro-

duced from high tensile strength car-

bon steel with Unified National Coarse

(U.N.C.) threads. Galv-Kr¯om finish is

standard.

Cable and Mounting Systems

Copper Tubing

Flexible Tubing

Armored Cable

(Take-off from Cable Tray)

Shipboard Cables

Designed originally to eliminate costly

and time-consuming methods of

installing cables aboard ships, the

Kindorf J-800 series of straps, hangers

and brackets has found ever-widening

applications by mechanical and elec-

trical contractors in general construc-

tion. The J-800 system has proven to

be a work-saver when used to install

tubing or cable. Tubing and cable of

various construction and fabrication

can be racked efficiently with built-in

provisions for making additions or

changes at a later date. They can be

secured in all combinations and

sequences of sizes. A variety of hangers

and brackets secures multiple runs as

well as single branch take-offs.

Installation of J-800 straps on Kindorf

supports is simple, requiring only a

screwdriver or small wrench. Each run

is gripped individually on a hanger and

all runs are secured by tightening a

single locking device. Loosening the

locking device permits fast access to

the runs … making it easy to add,

remove or adjust them at any time.

J-800 installations have withstood the

severe conditions of service at sea for

many years. In countless installations

they have proven their ability to with-

stand the effects of salt air, moisture,

shock and vibration.

J-800 racking is well known for its fast,

yet precise installation methods. A

proven method that results in labor

economy and neat, workmanlike

installation.

Separate strap sizes rack b" through 2e" dia. rounds in h" increments.

One J-800 strap of the proper diameter

is used to secure each run. All straps

have a 1b" pin. In multiple runs the pin

is simply twist inserted into the sup-

porting Kindorf hanger, bracket or

channel slot; the strap closed over the

cable or tube to lock the strap tongue

under the pin of the adjacent strap.

The same procedure is used for single

runs except the strap tongue is

secured directly to the hanger. When

all multiple runs have been assembled,

they are secured by a single locking

device.

J-800 straps can be installed along the

continuous slot of any Kindorf channel.

This increases their versatility and

extends their possible applications.

PVC Coated Steel

Channel and Fittings for

High Corrosive

Atmospheres

The complete and lasting corrosion

protection of conduit with polyvinyl

chloride coating is now extended to

the supporting system. No longer will

installers be faced with the problem of

installing PVC coated conduit or other

corrosion resistant material only to

have the support system require con-

stant maintenance or replacement.

PVC coated Kindorf channel and fit-

tings complement other corrosion

resistant services installed in chemical

plants, foundries, meat packing plants,

oil refineries, paper mills, sewage treat-

ment plants and other locations.

PVC Plastic-Coated

Kindorf Channel Support

System for Installations

in Severely Corrosive

Atmospheres

PVC Coating

The coating is a polyvinyl chloride

(PVC) plastic coating that is perma-

nently fused to the Kindorf Galv-Kr¯om

galvanized steel channels, fittings and

accessories. The fused-melt mixed

powder (PVC) coating is 15 mils.

(.015") ±5 mils thickness.

The physical properties of the PVC

coating material are as follows:

Hardness 90+ Shore A

Durometer

Dielectric Strength 1100

(volts/mil @

60 cycles

Flammability Self-extinguishing

Tensile strength 2000 p.s.i.

Percent elongation 180%

Aging 14,000 hours

Atlas Weatherometer

The material is a thermoplastic and will

soften in high temperatures. Service

life will be decreased if the normal

operating temperature of the support

system is in excess of 225°F.

The service life expectancy is 20

years in normal weathering, with no

indication of hardening, softening or

other physical change.

The Kindorf plastic coated support

system has excellent resistance to the

corrosive atmospheres created in

modern processing industries which

materially reduce the life of standard

products and cause high maintenance

costs. The fused-on coating of PVC

plastic to a pre-galvanized steel effec-

tively bars corrosive action by eliminat-

ing “undercreep” or “corrosion travel”.

There is practically no maintenance.

No special tools are required for instal-

lation of the Kindorf PVC system.

The Kindorf PVC coated support

system, combining the strength of steel

and the corrosion resistance of plastic,

is designed for mechanical support of

plastic and plastic-coated conduits

and pipes. PVC Kindorf meets the

requirements for corrosion-resistance

in those environments generally found

in chemical processing plants, oil

refineries, steel mills, foundries, meat

packing and other food processing

plants, fertilizer plants, textile and

paper processing industries.

Weight per Hanger Equals

2" rigid steel conduit with heaviest conductor combination = 6.625 lbs. per foot.

3" rigid steel conduit with heaviest conductor combination = 13.415 lbs. per foot.

8 x 6.625 x 5 = 265 lbs. = weight of 2" conduits per hanger

2 x 13.415 x 5 = 134 lbs. = weight of 3" conduits per hanger

Total = 399 lbs. = weight of conduits per hanger

Metallic Engineering Data and Specifications

Conclusion

Referring to the load span tables on

page K128 for B-905 channel, a 36-

inch span has a uniformly distributed

load rating of 1133 lbs., which is greater

than the 390 lb. load calculated

above, and is therefore satisfactory.

On longer spans or spans with

greater loads, use B-901, B-900-2A or

B-905-2A channel or provide an inter-

mediate support

Note on Conduit Support

The 1987 edition of the National

Electrical Code states the rigid metal

conduit, intermediate metal conduit,

and electrical metallic tubing shall be

supported at least every 10 feet. See

Article 346, Section 346-12 for excep-

tions for rigid-metal conduit.

Problem

Design trapeze to support 8-2" rigid

steel conduits and 2-3" rigid steel con-

duits on a No. B-905 channel span

with hangers spaced five (5) feet

apart.

Examples for Using the Continuous Run Load Chart

for Channel

Example Number 1

A total load of 500 lbs. is to be supported in an evenly distributed manner over a

distance of 28 feet with the maximum deflection being not greater than 1⁄240 of the

span between the supports.

Which Kindorf channel should be used and how many supports are needed? On

the chart, find the point of intersection for a total load of 500 lbs. and a total run of

28 feet.

Pick the next graph line vertically above this point. This B-900 or G-975 with 4

supports (4B) evenly spaced. By reading horizontally to the left from this point, it

can be seen that up to 565 lbs. can be supported on B-900, (G-975) under these

conditions and still maintain a deflection of 1/240 of the span.

Example Number 2

Four foot fixtures weighing 30 lbs. each are to be attached to a channel suspended

from a ceiling in a continuous 20-foot run and maintain a deflection of less than

1/240 of the span between the supports.

Which Kindorf channel should be used and how many supports are needed?

Number of fixtures = 20 ft.

4 ft./fixture = 5 fixtures

Total Load = 5 fixtures x 30 lbs.

fixture = 150 lbs.

On the chart, find the point of intersection for a total load of 150 lbs. and a total run

of 20 feet.

Pick the next graph line vertically above this point. This is B-900-M (G-975-M)

with 3 supports (3A) – one support on each end and one in the center of the run.

Example Number 3

A 20-foot run of B-901 or G-965 is supported by 3 hangers, one on each end and

one in the center. How much evenly distributed weight can this system support

and maintain a maximum deflection of 1/240 of the span between the supports?

On the chart, find the point of the intersection for a total run of 20 feet and the

graph line for B-901 (G-965) with 3 supports (3C).

From this point, read horizontally to the left to find the total uniform load of 690

lbs. on the vertical scale.

3 supports 975 lbs. or less 3 supports 975 lbs. and 1810 lbs.

4 supports 1665 lbs. or less 4 supports 1665 lbs. and 3080 lbs.

Load distribution on hanger rods – 2 Supports

Example – If the total uniformly distributed load W is 1,000 lbs., each hanger must

be capable of supporting half of the load or 500 lbs. Therefore, H-193-3/8 or c‘R’

series hanger rod would be sufficient to support this load.

3 Supports

Example – If the total uniformly distributed load W is 1,000 lbs., the load is distrib-

uted to each support in the following manner: 187dlbs. to each end support and

625 lbs. to the center support. In this case, the maximum load to be supported is

625 lbs., which exceeds the recommended safe load of 610 lbs. for H-193-3/8

hanger rod., therefore H-193-1/2, or d‘R’ series supports should be used.

To Select Proper Channel

The hanger spacing is often determined by the type of building construction. The

deflection then will determine the proper channel since this deflection should not

exceed 1/240 of the span.

To estimate the deflection at the center of an intermediate span in long continu-

ous runs (Fig. 1), multiply the weight of a single fixture times the applicable deflec-

tion constant (from table). This deflection also applies to the end span in Figure 1

and the single span in Figure 2 if the dimension “C” is between 1⁄4and 1⁄3of the

length of the span. If a cantilever does not exist as in the double span (Figure 3),

the deflection of end spans (Figure 3) will be doubled.

* For 8-foot fixtures reduce the deflection constant by 50%. This table is for normal weight fix-

tures – the constant “.000” infers negligible deflection.

A long, continuous run of 30# 4-foot fixtures on G-975 channel is supported on 12' centers.

The deflection at the center of an intermediate span will be the deflection constant (.006)

times the fixture weight (30#) or 0.18 inches.

Right Angle Slotted Angle

With Right Angle you get

Flexibility – Simplicity –

Economy

Create the support framing you need

Right Angle is manufactured from com-

mercial quality steel in three different

sizes. The small sizes are 14 ga. steel,

the larger size is 12 ga. steel. With this

offering, an endless variety of metal

framing requirements can be met, from

lightweight supporting needs to larger

shelving for inventory storage.

One of the legs on all sizes is 1e"

wide, while the other is either 1e", 2c"

or 3a" long. Depending on the frame

requirements, a single size can be uti-

lized throughout, or the sizes can be

interchanged to get the most efficient

usage from the material.

This book will serve as a guide to

plan and build your structure.

Installation time is reduced – inventory

space is minimal.

Scribe marks are placed every f"

which saves planning, layout and cut-

ting time and assures accuracy. The

exclusive slot and hole pattern, repeat-

ed every 3", is scientifically designed

for ease of assembly and rigidity. No

welding is necessary, no holes to drill.

Al" wrench is the only tool required

for assembly. The proper nuts and

bolts are included with the material to

ensure fast and easy erection.

Right Angle Metal Framing is pack-

aged in 10' and 12' lengths to minimize

cut offs and ensure maximum use of

material.

120 feet, 10, 12 foot lengths of Right

Angle takes up the same amount of

space as one 2 x 4. A standard pack-

age includes five pieces to a bundle,

therefore handling and storage space

are significantly reduced.

The importance of cutting Right

Angle easily, quickly and accurately is

the key to time saving assembly. The

Steel City Portable Cutter provides

these advantages and make layout

and erection of any structure a “light-

work” job.

Steel City Right Angle

comes standard with our

Galv-Kr¯om Finish, which

assures a long-lasting,

durable installation.

Galv-Kr¯om is a two-part finishing

process that protects the entire sys-

tem, including all nuts and bolts. The

first part of the finish is electrogalva-

nized zinc that covers the bare steel.

The second part is a gold zinc dichro-

mate that is applied over the zinc

base.

Three aspects of the Galv-Kr¯om

Process are worthy of note:

1. Zinc Coating – In the first part of

the Galv-Kr¯om process, a .5 mil coat-

ing of zinc is placed on the bare steel.

This assures the sacrificial quality of

any galvanizing and becomes a work-

ing finish. The zinc literally sacrifices

itself over bare steel and protects cut

edges or scratches which may occur

during construction.

Galv-Kr¯om is in compliance with

ASTM B633-78 Type II coating.

2. Electrogalvanizing – Because

the zinc is applied through a tempera-

ture-controlled electrolytic process, a

cohesive bond with the steel is

assured. This prohibits chipping or

peeling. It also distributes the zinc

evenly so all components – including

threads – can be equally protected.

3. Zinc Dichromate Barrier – The

second part of the Galv-Kr¯om finish is a

gold zinc dichromate that is applied

over the zinc base. This second layer

of plating forms a non-porous barrier

which protects the underlying zinc and

adds additional resistance to corro-

sion. In addition, the gold zinc dichro-

mate covering provides an excellent

base if the surface is to be painted.

Helpful Hints to Maximize Right Angle Erection

Cleat Sections

Cut Off Cleats are small sections of

Right Angle used to reinforce joints or

used as feet to support vertical

columns. These feet prevent damage

to floor surfaces or can be used to bolt

a structure to the floor.

Additional joints can be made using

cut off cleats. Simply butt the cleat

against a column and behind a right

side beam, as shown in the illustration.

Slot and Hole Pattern

The Right Angle hole pattern is simple

and flexible. It is repeated every 3"

along the entire length of the Right

Angle. An extended line marks the 3"

increments, (vertical slots), while short-

er lines mark every f" increment. With

this hole pattern, nesting, triangulation,

cross beams and many additional

combinations are possible.

When a beam rests on a ledge of other

material (such as a wall) the long flange

should extend upward. Right Angle

beams are at their strongest when

assembled with long flange downward.

Vertical columns may be in either direc-

tion. Place short flange of vertical col-

umn in front for shelving to permit wider

opening for handling material.

Variety of Combinations to Meet

Needs

Greater strength is obtained by joining

sections of Right Angle in various com-

binations for beams and columns. See

the load chart on page K159 for the

combination that best suits your need.

Plan Flange Direction

Right Angle beams are at their

strongest position with the long flange

downward. Vertical uprights may be in

either direction for equal strength. Be

sure to measure the material to be

shelved to allow space for handling.

Measure the Space

Right Angle structures may be built to

the size of the space available.

Measure the space and make a sketch

of the area.

Sketch the Planned Structure

Sketch the structure you plan to build

listing all vital dimensions. Include

length, width and height of all sections

so that load limits can be calculated

safely.

Assembling the Structure

Follow your plan for cutting sections

and for layout. Assemble the structure

as a series of frames, or bays and bolt

together as units. Use as many bolts

as possible and turn nuts up finger-

tight. Square-up and level the entire

structure. Proceed to tighten bolts with

wrench … starting with corners to

assure permanent squareness. Use

diagonal bracing, if necessary. Add

shelves. Your Right Angle structure is

ready for a useful lifetime.

Figure the load your structure must

bear – on each level or shelf. This is

necessary to determine the sections

required to carry the load safely.

The load tables will enable you to

determine the Right Angle gauge and

section combination needed.

Load Limit Example For Evenly Distributed

Loads

Using the sketch shown and the load

tables, calculate the weight support-

able by a structure with two or more

shelves. A 6-ft. high single shelf struc-

ture AB will support a load of 5200 lbs.

using RA-225 Right Angle

(4 single uprights x 1100 lbs. each)

from table.

When an additional shelf is framed at

C, columns become the same as two

3-ft. uprights, AC and CB, and the total

safe load is 10200 lbs. on columns CB

(4 x 2550 lbs.). This load can be divid-

ed between the shelves in any conve-

nient way, so long as the total load on

columns CB does not exceed 10200

lbs. If shelf loads are unequal, the

heavier load should go on the lower

shelf to avoid top-heavy instability.

Use the same method of calculating

for three or more shelves with the load

tables as reference.

How to Determine Weight to be Supported

Multiple-bay shelving is typical of many

Right Angle weight-bearing structures.

Load tables are your guide to the

weights supportable by RA-160, RA-225

and RA-300. Strengths are increased

where needed by combining sections

for beams or columns, and by adding

braces.

Example for Checking Load Safety

This structure is erected as 3 separate

bays and bolted together, using RA-225.

Beam Load Bearing

Load E = 400 lbs. evenly distributed on

two 4' beams. Refer to beam load

tables for RA-225: Two 4' beams will

support 1090 lbs. – Safe load.

Load F = 600 lbs. on solid shelf evenly

distributes weight to two 3' beams. Refer

to beam load tables: Two 3' beams will

support 1560 lbs. – Safe load.

Load G = 800 lbs. on shelf supported

by two 3' beams and two 4' beams.

Add the 4 sections: 3 + 3 + 4 + 4 = 14

ft. Divide total load G by 14, i.e., 800 ÷

14 = 57 lbs. per ft.

Compute wt. on longest beam – two 4'

sections, or 8 ft. Multiply 8' x 57 lbs.

per ft. load = 456 lbs. supported by the

two 4' beam. Refer to load tables: Two

4' beams support 1090 lbs. – Safe

load. Since the 3' beams are stronger,

they are also safe for the load. Load H,

any load on shelf supported by beams

at floor level – considered safe.

The example illustrates methods of fig-

uring loads on three different types of

shelf construction. It is not a typical bay.

It should be remembered that a safe

beam load does not assure a safe

structure – column load safety must

also be computed.

Column Load Bearing

Four columns support load equally.

Column section AB = bload E, or

100 lbs.

Column section BC = bload F, or

150 lbs., PLUS bload E, 100 lbs. or

250 lbs.

Column section CD = bload G, or 200

lbs. PLUS 150 lbs., bload F, PLUS 100

lbs., bload E, for a total load on sec-

tion CD of 450 lbs. Load H is at floor

level, does not count.

Assuming a 9' high structure, the 9'

column is supported at 3' intervals by

ties for shelving, the 3' column section

data is used. Refer to column load

tables: 3 column (vertical) supports

2550 lbs. – Safe for the load.

Figures are for a free-standing,

unbraced structure. Common uprights

in two or more bay structures carry a

double load.

See page K159 for load tables.
