The nail clip BFM-NSMN 7-12/35 grey from RED is a fastening element for the installation of cables and lines in electrical and installation technology. It is suitable for securely fastening cables and lines with a diameter between 7 and 12 mm to substrates such as concrete or wood. The product features easy installation and is supplied with a hardened steel nail, ensuring stable anchoring. The clip is finished in grey (RAL 7035) and offers a silicone- and halogen-free design, which is advantageous for applications in sensitive environments.

Applications

The nail clip is primarily used in electrical installation, where quick and reliable fastening of lines is required. It is suitable for indoor use as well as in environments where chemical resistance to silicone and halogen compounds is required. Typical applications include the installation of electrical cables, data lines, or other flexible lines on solid substrates such as concrete walls, wooden structures, or similar surfaces.

Functions and Equipment in Detail

The clip features a flexible holding area that securely encloses lines with a diameter of 7 to 12 mm. The integrated hardened steel nail enables firm anchoring in materials such as concrete or wood. The nail has a length of 35 mm, providing sufficient penetration depth for most common substrates. The grey finish (RAL 7035) ensures discreet integration into the environment, especially in industrial or commercial facilities. The silicone- and halogen-free design reduces the risk of chemical reactions or side effects during installation.

Technology Explained Simply

The nail clip operates on the principle of mechanical fastening: the steel nail is hammered into the substrate, securing the clip firmly to the carrier material. The elastic shape of the clip allows adaptation to different line diameters within the specified range. The use of hardened steel ensures high strength and durability, even under mechanical stress. The silicone- and halogen-free material composition prevents the release of harmful substances, which is particularly important in enclosed spaces or when used near sensitive electronic equipment.

Compatibility and Accessories

The nail clip is compatible with lines having a diameter of 7 to 12 mm. As a suitable accessory, the ISO nail clip 9 mm L35 PP in light grey (RAL 7035) is offered, providing an alternative fastening option. This component can be used in combination with the nail clip to provide additional stability or a different mounting method, especially for special fastening requirements.

Installation and Mounting

Installation is carried out by simply hammering the integrated steel nail into the substrate using an appropriate hammer. The clip is positioned so that the line lies securely in the holding groove. The required penetration depth of 35 mm for the nail is sufficient for most common substrates. It is essential to ensure that the substrate is solid and load-bearing to guarantee long-term fastening. Installation requires no additional tools or materials other than a hammer.

Operational Advantages

The nail clip offers quick and easy installation without requiring additional tools or connecting elements. The use of hardened steel ensures high mechanical stability and long service life. The silicone- and halogen-free design reduces potential risks during installation and operation. The grey finish allows for discreet integration into the environment, especially in industrial or commercial facilities. The clip is designed for indoor use and is suitable for a wide range of installation scenarios in electrical and IT technology.
