January 22, 2019

To enhance ease of installation, ABB introduces it’s newest innovation—SuperMag magnetic fittings for its Superstrut metal framing line. Powerful, nickel-plated magnets embedded in the most popular Superstrut steel fittings, including square washers, L-brackets, T-brackets and 90° angle brackets, secure the fitting to the strut during assembly. Acting as a third hand, SuperMag fittings allow the installer to work more efficiently and safely with tools and hardware. Superstrut SuperMag magnetic fittings—another innovation from ABB to help make installation safer, easier and more convenient.

  • Adds convenience and safety to strut assembly by eliminating the need to manually hold fittings and strut together while installing bolts, nuts and rods
  • Features neodymium (NdFeB) grade N35 nickel-plated magnets
  • SuperMag fittings support at least 2x their own weight
  • Magnets hold in vertical and horizontal orientations
  • Magnets are staked in place for dual-sided use
