P3880 - Punch Clamp (for Seismic Braces)

The Punch Clamp can be used as a seismic brace attachment with Strut or Pipe, allowing the use of many different bracing members, easy installation, and all with just one component.

For installation, the P3880 bolt should be torqued until it punches through the wall of the Strut or Pipe. This provides a positive connection between the brace fitting and brace member.

This product is pre-approved for seismic bracing under Unistrut's OPM-0295-13, Page 5c.5.
