HPHPM Series J-Hook - Composite Wide Base Hook w Magnet - 10 pack by Doc's Industries Inc.

Hook and Hanger distributes the HPHPM cable support for communication cabling on ferrous structures. Each assembly combines a smooth, burr-free 2-inch-wide plastic base loop with a rigid metal backbone and integrated magnetic pot-magnet base. It provides a wide base and a heavy-duty structural anchor. We stock these components for cable management where data cable needs protected routing.

The HPHPM cable support is designed for sensitive Cat 5e, Cat 6, Cat 6A, Cat 7, and fiber optic lines. Its broad base distributes the cable bundle across a smooth surface, while the magnetic mount eliminates the need to pierce qualified ferrous structure during placement. The components are cULus listed and RoHS compliant, and their material profile supports TIA-compliant, plenum-rated pathway planning for commercial communications work.

What Is the HPHPM Cable Support Used For?

The HPHPM cable support creates a defined overhead route for low-voltage and communications cabling under steel beams, joists, deck supports, and ironwork. A technician positions the magnetic pot fastener against clean ferrous steel, checks that it is seated, then places the cable bundle in the wide plastic loop. This is useful where conventional j-hooks could expose cable jackets to narrow metal contact points or where drilling into the structure is not allowed by the project plan.

A built-in snap-lock retainer latch closes over the supported bundle after loading. It replaces the field installation of wire loops, cable ties, and hook-and-loop wraps that can slow routing at ceiling height. The HPHPM cable support maintains a 3.57-inch average bend radius, providing space for controlled cable turns and reducing physical stress that can contribute to jacket damage, pair deformation, crosstalk, attenuation, or other signal-performance issues. The smooth plastic contact surface also helps prevent burr-related abrasion during installation.

What Are the HPHPM Cable Support Specifications?

The HPHPM cable support is available in two support diameters for smaller and larger pathway bundles. Capacities below are based on a conservative 70% fill rate and include a 3-to-1 safety factor on load tolerances. Confirm cable size, site conditions, and code requirements before final selection.

• HPH16: 1.07 sq. in. support area; 1-inch diameter; capacity for 20 Cat 5e, 15 Cat 6, or 10 Cat 6A cables; UL load rating of 20 lbs. (88.96 N); package quantity of 25; package weight of 3 lbs.

• HPH32: 3.97 sq. in. support area; 2-inch diameter; capacity for 90 Cat 5e, 60 Cat 6, or 35 Cat 6A cables; UL load rating of 17 lbs. (75.62 N); package quantity of 25; package weight of 4 lbs.

• Magnetic assembly: high-strength neodymium-core pot magnet with a rated breakaway strength of 90 lbs.

• Cable path geometry: 2-inch-wide smooth plastic base and a 3.57-inch average bend radius.

• Compliance profile: cULus listed, RoHS compliant, TIA compliant, and plenum rated for specified air-handling-space applications.

The HPH16 suits smaller cable groupings; the HPH32 provides more interior area for larger bundles. Hook and Hanger recommends separating pathways by service type and following the project’s fill, support-spacing, firestopping, and cable-access requirements.

How Does the HPHPM Cable Support Attach to Structure?

The HPHPM cable support uses a pre-assembled metal backbone with a high-strength neodymium-core pot magnet. It is intended for direct mounting to clean, adequately sized ferrous steel surfaces. Assess the substrate, surface condition, overhead orientation, cable load, vibration, and site safety requirements before loading the support.

• Secure the magnetic assembly directly to structural steel beams, joists, deck supports, and iron frameworks with a suitable ferrous attachment surface.

• Press the pot magnet squarely against the steel so the contact area is fully engaged; do not place the support on corroded, painted, uneven, contaminated, or nonferrous surfaces unless holding performance has been evaluated.

• Load and latch the cable bundle only after confirming the support is stable and aligned with the intended pathway.

• Use the assembly as a tool-free, surface-protective alternative where overhead drilling and anchoring or conventional mechanical fastening would create penetrations in qualified steel.

• For elevated routing that otherwise relies on extension poles and mechanical attachment hardware, plan access, fall protection, and cable handling around the approved jobsite method; the magnet does not replace safe access equipment.

The magnetic mount is not a universal structural attachment. Do not use it on aluminum, stainless steel, wood, concrete, hollow framing, or another substrate without adequate ferrous holding strength. Where magnetic attachment is unsuitable, Hook and Hanger supplies other structural-support approaches, including properly specified angle clips, without representing them as interchangeable with the magnetic assembly.

Why Use Hybrid J-Hooks in Plenum Spaces?

For interior commercial work, the hybrid configuration supports data cable in a controlled path above a suspended ceiling while keeping it off ceiling grids, ducts, pipes, and other building systems. The plenum-rated plastic base is appropriate for specified air-handling spaces, where pathway components must align with project material, fire, and installation requirements. The metal backbone connects the cable-support section to the magnetic fastener without creating a narrow all-metal resting point beneath the bundle.

The HPHPM cable support is available in red, blue, and black. Color selection can help crews distinguish service routes, phased installations, tenant systems, or designated cable groups without relying solely on tags. This supports faster identification during installation, testing, expansion, and maintenance. We offer bulk shipping through nationwide distribution so purchasing teams can coordinate quantities around the project layout and release schedule.
