is applied before the strut is manufactured. That means
Outperforms the Competition all the oil and grime collected while the steel is formed
into strut remains on the strut for the customer. Because
Galv-Krom® finish is applied after fabrication, the oils and
grime collected during the manufacturing process are
thoroughly cleaned off during plating. This creates a
finished product that leaves no residue on your hands
when handling
• Paintable Surface — The new Galv-Krom® finish
uses nano technology to provide a nonporous and non-
crystalline surface. Not only does this feature provide
enhanced corrosion protection, but also provides an
excellent bond for the paint of your choice
• No More White Rust — With pre-galvanized strut, a
common quality headache is the formation of white rust
on the zinc finish. With Galv-Krom® finish, the trivalent
chromium finish is applied over the zinc, to seal in the
zinc beneath and stop the formation of white rust
• Great Electrical Conductivity — Unlike paint or enamel,
the Galv-Krom® surface offers a minimum of electrical
resistance so that electrical applications are easily
The new and improved Galv-Krom® finish provides many benefits.
First, it provides continued safety within OSHA guidelines. Second,

the trivalent formulation provides RoHs compliance. But most

Kindorf® channel is a rugged, heavy-gage structural-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 position. Spring-tensioned nuts are generally 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 pressure 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.

Conduit, Cable and Pipe Supports
Single or multiple runs of pipe and cable are secured easily and
economically by Kindorf® supports. In the racking of multiple runs of pipe,
for example, 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 5'
to drill and position adjustment is made simple by sliding the strap along
the channel slot. Runs of pipe or conduit can be spaced with complete
freedom, as close as conduit couplings permit. 36"
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 Trapeze application supporting
versatile C-149 can be suspended from hanger rod or bolted directly to multiple conduit runs.
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 exclusive
Galv-Krom® finish, including threaded components.

When used with hanger rod, assembly requires two H-114 hex nuts.
Vertical adjustment of at least 11⁄2" 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.

Support Brackets
Axle supports and a variety of wall brackets all adapt to the standard
Kindorf® channel and allow additional flexibility in the support of cables,
conduit, pipe and other equipment.
The application of axle supports and bracket members can be made
on either the continuous slot of the channel or the pre-punched hole
side. Utilizing the 11⁄2" hole spacing, greater adaptability is attained
with a minimum of fittings.

To the Owner
Fixture Hanger
A flexible installation requiring fewer attachments to the building structure with built-in
provisions for easy maintenance and future modifications when lighting fixtures must be
added, deleted or relocated. Kindorf® channel and fittings form a strong, economical
and attractive support and wiring system for fixtures and other equipment.
To the Contractor
The Kindorf® System consists of time-saving materials that will simultaneously 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 installation problems as they arise in the field.

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
lighting layout and with erected strength to spare for lighting fixture support.
The joiner fitting rests inside the channel without obstructing the channel,
or the lay-in of electrical conductors. 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.
