Bracing Systems

To help ensure the availability and operation of safety systems after an earthquake event, many building and industry codes nowinclude requirements for the design and installation of seismic sway bracing for non-structural components, such as fire sprinkler,mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems. The innovative line of CADDY® Bracing Systems was developed to help keep fire sprinklersystems intact after a seismic event and to minimize water damage resulting from leaks or ruptures.

CADDY Bracing Systems provide contractors with high-quality, engineered solutions, which include rigid bracing, cable bracing and rodstiffeners.

• Quick and easy installation• Lower total installed cost• Meets requirements of NFPA® 13• cULus® Listed• FM® Approved• OSHPD® Pre-Approved

Cable Bracing

CADDY® cable bracing is an ideal alternative to rigid bracing for fire sprinkler systems when brace lengths greater than 19’ - 8” (6 m)are required or when confined/crowded spaces make rigid systems difficult to install. The system includes pre-stretched steel cable,attachment fittings, crimping sleeves and related tools. The system can also be used to brace electrical, mechanical and plumbingsystems.

• Color-coated cable conforms to NFPA® 13 requirements and makes it highly visible and easier to identify cable sizes• UL® Listed• OSHPD® Pre-Approved (OPA-0619)

Branch Line Restraint System

Traditional methods for installing branch line restraints in fire sprinkler systems are cumbersome and time-consuming. Contractors oftencut (and re-cut) threaded rod to precise measurements to restrain the sprinkler pipe with a loop hanger and surge restraint. Traditionalmethods also commonly require five or more parts per restraint.

To avoid these labor-intensive methods, ERICO has streamlined the process and developed the Branch Line Restraint System, part ofthe CADDY® line of hanging and bracing solutions for the fire protection market. Ideal for restraining 1” (25 mm) through 2” (50 mm)branch lines, this innovative system is significantly faster and easier to install than current methods. It attaches directly to steel bar joists,I-beams or purlins, as well as concrete and wood structures. The hardware is installed with only one tool, a 5/16” (8 mm) socket drilldriver, which provides significant labor savings and convenience. It features a simple, two-step installation process, allowing a timesavings of up to 80% compared to other methods.

Unlike most solutions that only accept 3/8” (M10) threaded rod, the versatile Branch Line Restraint System features a swivel attachmentthat can be rotated to accept 3/8” or 1/2” (M10 or M12) threaded rod. This allows greater restraint distances from the pipe to structurewith 1/2” (M12) threaded rod.

The system meets the requirements of NFPA® 13, making it ideal for new construction applications. The total system is cULus® Listedand FM® Approved, and has been pre-approved by the state of California (OSHPD OPA-2629-10).

• Complete restraint system is quick and easy to install• Offers up to 80% time savings per branch line restraint• Eliminates need to cut threaded rod to exact dimensions• Works with 3/8” and 1/2” (M10 and M12) rod• Capable of restraint distances up to 40” (960 mm) from pipe to structure with 1/2” (M12) threaded rod• Meets requirements of NFPA® 13 section 9.3.6
