Surface mounted pvc conduit nail clips

Hi all


A lot of my work involves surface mounted pvc conduit and in particular fixing to wooden roof beams in agricultural buildings for high level lights. I have normally used the plastic cable nail clips for this as they easily and quickly fix to the wood. I would use spacer bar saddles for fixing to a masonry wall. However, as the clips are specifically called cable clips, should they only be used for cable, not conduit? I have to say that they work very well for conduit and especially when fixing to a wooden surface

  • Presumably both plastic nail in clips (similar to polypiple nail clips?) and plastic conduit saddles won't meet modern requirements for fire resistant fixings, so I guess we're back to steel saddles now - or possibly the original "nail in" fixing - steel crampets (although I'm dubious about using them with plastic conduit - the slightest over-driving might crush the conduit).
