Gripple Y-Pipe Accessory | Twin Pipe Hanger on a 200 mm M8 Stud Bracket
A ready-made way to carry two pipes from one fixing point. A 200 mm bracket with an M8 stud at each end hangs on a wire rope Y that rises 185 mm to a single loop at the top. Screw a pipe clamp onto each stud, hook the loop onto whatever you are suspending from, and a twin pipe run is supported without a length of channel and without a second hole in the soffit.
No MOQ - Buy a Single Hanger
ONE UNIT, NO PACK QUANTITIES, NO TRADE ACCOUNT
• Sold singly: buy one to finish a run, or buy the whole job. No box quantities and no minimum order.
• No kit needed: this accessory does the same job as the full Y-Pipe Hanger Kit. If you already have a hanger or a rod in place, you do not need to buy the kit to set up a Y-fit run.
• Half the drilling: two pipes from one anchor point instead of two separate drops.
• Nothing to cut: no channel to measure, cut or deburr, and no hot works on site.
⚠️ IMPORTANT: BRACKET AND WIRE Y ONLY
You get the 200 mm stud bracket with its wire rope Y and top loop. The hanger, rod or anchor that the loop attaches to is not included, and neither are the pipe clamps that screw onto the M8 studs - both are chosen by the installer to suit the job. Pipework shown in the images is for demonstration purposes.
Why use a Y-Pipe hanger?
Two parallel pipes are normally supported one of two ways. Either each pipe gets its own drop, which means two anchors, two hangers and twice the work at height. Or they share a trapeze, which means cutting strut channel to length, deburring it, and often a hot works permit before the saw comes out.
The Y-Pipe accessory replaces both. One fixing carries the pair, the spacing is set by the bracket rather than measured on site, and the wire Y keeps the load shared evenly between the two studs. Gripple puts the saving at one anchor point and 50% less drilling.
Where is the Y-Pipe accessory used?
Anywhere pipes run in pairs: heating and chilled water flow and return, domestic hot and cold, condensate and small-bore plant connections. It suits ceiling voids, corridors, risers and plant rooms, and it is particularly useful in refurbishment, where there is little room to drill and hot works are restricted.
How to use?
- Fix the top loop to your suspension point. It will take a Gripple wire hanger, and it will equally take a threaded rod, an eye anchor or a hook - whichever the job already uses.
- Let the bracket hang free and check it sits level.
- Screw a pipe clamp onto each M8 stud, sized to the pipe it will carry.
- Seat each pipe in its clamp and tighten.
- Check both pipes for line and level before loading the run.
The studs are M8, so the pipe diameter is set by the clamp you fit rather than by the hanger itself.

📢 Technical & Safety Disclaimer:
The Safe Working Loads above are stated at a 5:1 safety factor and apply to the Y-Pipe accessory itself. A suspended run is only as strong as its weakest element: the hanger, threaded rod or anchor that the top loop is attached to, and the pipe clamps fitted to the studs, are selected by the installer and fall outside these figures. Responsibility and liability for system safety and load integrity remain with the user.
