A fitting for channel framing includes a first clip arm configured to extend into a first external fitting groove of the channel framing and clip onto the channel framing, and a second clip arm configured to extend into a second external fitting groove of the channel framing and clip onto the channel framing. An outer portion connected to and extending between the first and second clip arms is configured to span across the continuous slot when the first and second clip arms extend into the respective first and second external fitting grooves and are clipped onto the channel framing.

A conduit clamp for securing a conduit component to channel framing includes first and second jaws each having opposite first and second end portions. The first end portions of the first and second jaws are configured for securement to one another, such that first and second jaws generally oppose one another and the second end portions of the first and second jaws are free from attachment to one another, to define a conduit receiving space between the first and second jaws. Each of the first and second jaws includes a coupling component at the second end portion thereof having a generally dovetail shape configured for reception in an external fitting groove of the channel framing to attach the conduit clamp to the channel framing.

An expandable downhole tool for use in an oil well, including a flexible member rolled into a helix and comprising first and second lateral edges on opposing lateral ends of the member. The flexible member is selectively changeable between a compressed configuration wherein the transverse cross-section of the flexible member has a first diameter, and an expanded configuration wherein the transverse cross-section of the flexible member has a second diameter, the second diameter larger than the first diameter.

A fitting for channel framing includes a coupling component and a washer secured to the coupling component. At least a portion of the coupling component has a generally dovetail cross-sectional shape configured for reception in an external fitting groove of the channel framing. The washer engages outside surfaces of a second side of the channel framing at opposite sides of the external fitting groove when the coupling component is received in the external fitting groove.

A fitting for channel framing includes a first clip arm configured to extend into a first external fitting groove of the channel framing and clip onto the channel framing, and a second clip arm configured to extend into a second external fitting groove of the channel framing and clip onto the channel framing. An outer portion connected to and extending between the first and second clip arms is configured to span across the continuous slot when the first and second clip arms extend into the respective first and second external fitting grooves and are clipped onto the channel framing.

A profile is produced from a bent metal sheet surrounding an interior space by at least 360, the longitudinal edges of said metal sheet being connected to respectively adjacent wall sections of the metal sheet. The longitudinal edges are separated from the respectively adjacent wall sections or longitudinal edges by spacers and are connected thereto in a form-fitting manner by fasteners such as screws, rivets, or the like.

A fitting for hanging a piece of channel framing includes a coupling component having opposite longitudinal ends, a length extending between the opposite longitudinal ends, a coupling longitudinal portion configured to be secured in the external fitting groove of the channel framing body, and an exposed longitudinal portion configured to extend outward from one of the open groove ends of an external fitting groove for connection to a rod to hang the piece of channel framing from an elevated structure when the coupling longitudinal portion of the coupling component is received in the external fitting groove.

The invention relates to a structural element. In an embodiment, the structural element includes a stiff, elongate tubular member, wherein an inner surface of the tubular member and side faces enclose a core extending along at least a length of the tubular member, wherein the core is provided with a fluid under pressure. The invention furthermore relates to a method for hoisting a stiff, elongate tubular member.

A reinforcement-confined circular steel tube member with enhanced end stiffness is provided. Two ends of a first end sleeve are respectively connected to a first end plate and a first connecting annular plate. Two ends of a second end sleeve are respectively connected to a second end plate and a second connecting annular plate. A first end of a circular steel tube passes through the first connecting annular plate to be inserted into the first end sleeve and fixed to the first end plate, and a second end of the circular steel tube sequentially passes through restraint rings and the second connecting annular plate to be inserted into the second end sleeve and fixed to the second end plate. Two ends of each steel bar are respectively provided with a first limit part and a second limit part.
