Fast-fit Rectangular Duct Hanger with Optional Built-in Vibration Control

The Gripple Duct Trapeze is a purpose-built rectangular duct hanger designed for fast and easy suspension of ductwork and other rectangular steel sections (0.6–1.5 mm gauge).

Unlike traditional threaded rod systems, there’s no cutting or measuring on site, just a compact, pre-assembled duct wire lock kit with a simple L-shaped bracket and optional integrated EPDM rubber pads to reduce vibration and prevent air leakage.

With three fixing points for screws or rivets, and a release pin for easy adjustment, it’s faster to install, easier to handle, and more flexible on-site. Whether you’re looking for cable hangers for ductwork, a smarter square duct hanger, or a more efficient duct hanger system overall, this is your solution.

Step 1: Fix bracket to duct using three self-drilling screws or rivets.
Step 2: Insert wire rope through the hanger, leaving at least 100 mm of tail for adjustment.
Step 3: Raise the duct to the desired height and feed through the wire to secure at your desired height.
Step 4: Adjust the height lower if needed by pulling the release pin (ensure the duct is supported at this point).

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes our Gripple Duct Trapeze wire hanger is designed for use with rectangular ductwork made from 0.6 mm to 1.5 mm gauge steel and can support weights up to 45kg per suspension point. If you need to suspend items heavier than this we offer a range of other ductwork suspension products here.

Yes, our Gripple Duct Trapeze hanger can be used with insulated ductwork. However, you must ensure the weight of the insulation has to be taken into account when calculating the loads and drop spacings.

Absolutely. We supply each kit with a wide choice of substrate fixings (end fixings) to suit concrete, steel, wood, or composite deck ceilings. Whether you’re working in commercial, industrial, or retrofit environments, we’ll supply the right fixing for your substrate.

It’s over 80% faster to install. There’s no cutting or de-burring of rod, no need for power tools or hot works permits, and it allows for tool-free adjustment during install, saving time and reducing errors. Plus, the compact kits are much easier to transport and store on-site.

The Gripple Duct Trapeze includes integrated EPDM rubber pads which reduce vibration and help prevent air leakage, a feature not typically included with other duct hanger systems. It’s designed to help you meet DW144 Class D air-tightness standards.

Yes. Our Duct Trapeze hanger is Lloyd’s Register approved and BSRIA tested. It’s manufactured in the UK under strict quality controls, with traceability throughout our vertically integrated supply chain.

We provide full project support, including take-off services, technical drawings, installation training, and on-site visits and pull tests where required. Our engineering team is on hand to help from design to delivery.
