The U-Bolt Ground Clamp attaches grounding conductors to electrodes such as rods, pipes, and rebar. Constructed from high copper content alloy or silicon bronze, it provides efficient electrical conductivity and enables universal parallel or 90-degree ground conductor connections for versatile installation in various grounding systems.
The clamp accommodates conductor sizes from 4 American Wire Gauge (AWG) to 4/0 AWG or 2/0 to 250 kcmil, and fits rod diameters from 1-1/4 inches to 5 inches. Compatible pipe sizes include 3/8 Iron Pipe Size (IPS), with overall dimensions approximately 2-13/16 inches in length, 2-1/4 inches in width, and 1-9/16 inches in depth. U-bolts are made from stainless steel, and the bronze-plated finish provides enhanced corrosion resistance.
Heavy-duty construction delivers strength and durability for demanding environments. A specially designed spacer ensures proper alignment between cable and electrode, providing positive contact area for reliable electrical connections. The flexible design enables connections in parallel or at 90-degree angles to adapt to field conditions, and construction supports direct burial applications in earth or concrete.
The clamp meets Underwriters Laboratories (UL) 467 listing and Canadian Standards Association (CSA) certification requirements (UL file numbers E34440 and E3060), confirming adherence to industry safety and performance standards for regulated grounding and bonding applications in industrial and residential installations.
