Thinking about using the Walraven RSWB?


Have a look at some quick FAQs to help you decide:

Can I use Walraven RSWB for different types of installations?

Installers have also used it for fixing shower valves, lightweight ducting and flue supports. For inspiration, read our article – Top 7 uses for the Walraven RSWB.

Which side of the RSWB should I fix to?

You can fix services to either side of the bracket depending on your needs. For example, the flat side is ideal for back boxes or plastic pipe clips, and the recessed side can be used to attach metal pipe clips with Walraven RapidRail® Hammerfix slide nuts. This flexibility gives installers more freedom to choose how to set up their installation.

Is the Walraven RSWB load tested?

No. The RSWB is not designed as a load-bearing bracket. The intended uses – for mounting electrical boxes, conduit and plumbing pipework – don’t require load testing. For load-bearing fixing take a look at Walraven RapidRail® instead.
