ELLIS SECURES APACHE CLAMPS DEAL
Ellis, the plumbing products division of market leading electrical cable and pipe fixing manufacturer, Ellis Patents, has agreed to continue its exclusive rolling contract with BSS for the supply of Apache pipe clamps.
The relationship, which is now in its 5th year, has seen BSS sell over ¼ million of the Ellis manufactured clamps through its nationwide chain of 56 branches.
Manufactured wholly in the UK, there are two versions of Apache clamps, which allow pipes to be either hung with the use of a screwed rod or directly fixed onto framing channel. Available in 16 sizes, Apache products are suitable for metric pipes ranging from 15mm to 171mm and imperial pipes from ½“ to 6 ” bore. This flexibility is further enhanced by the product’s ratchet design that enables each clamp to accommodate a range of different pipe sizes. Additionally, the robustness of the product design and its good chemical resistance ensure its longevity.
Ellis’ innovative approach to product development is also demonstrated by the incorporation of a ‘twist fit’ mechanism on all Apache framing channel products. Designed to dramatically reduce installation time so that the installed price of the product is cheaper than competing product, it enables the installer to securely fit the clamp by simply inserting it into the channel, twisting it and then snapping it shut.
Richard Shaw, managing director of Ellis, commented: “The success of our relationship with BSS is very much down to the quality of the product and its appeal to the BSS customer base. And, as the Apache range still stands out from others on the market due to its innovative design and labour-saving features, I’m confident we will continue to enjoy the benefits of this relationship for many years to come.”
