Features and Benefits<br />
The unique scissor action of the <strong>Trapnut</strong> <strong>Strut</strong> <strong>Fastener</strong><br />
closes at any desired position on the threaded rod. Once<br />
closed, precision threads trap the threaded rod for a sturdy<br />
hold that can be adjusted up or down for fine-tune positioning.<br />
While the versatile <strong>Trapnut</strong> has a locking pin that holds it<br />
in the desired position, it can also be removed and reused.<br />

Unlike a Hex Nut, there is no need to thread the <strong>Trapnut</strong> from<br />
either end of the rod, saving valuable time on the job. While the<br />
<strong>Trapnut</strong> <strong>Strut</strong> <strong>Fastener</strong> is a time-saver for new construction, it is invaluable<br />
for retro-fit applications. Rather than disassembling an existing trapeze to<br />
run additional conduit above it, <strong>Trapnut</strong> can be clamped between the existing<br />
trapeze and the beam clamp for a speedy retro-fit solution. It’s ideal for applications<br />
where the rod ends are not accessible.<br />
<strong>Trapnut</strong> has a sturdy steel construction that is load bearing, so you can be confident<br />
of a solid installation. And, <strong>Trapnut</strong> functions as a Hex Nut, square washer and<br />
flat washer combined, so there are fewer parts to keep up with on the job.<br />
