Components:
A - 1/2”-13 x 1” Grade 5 Bolts (4)
B - 1/2’’ Flat Washers
C - 1/2”-13 Unistrut Spring Nuts (P1010) (4)
D - Liquid Thread Lock
E - Rapid Mount Industrial
F - 1-5/8” Unistrut Unpierced Channels (P1000 or P1001B) (2)
G - Locking Hardware (Locking Hardware is left loose from factory. Do not remove prior to
installation.)
H - Drop Length Attachment Point
This method is used to span components of a building structure. The attachment point to the
building structure can vary greatly and we recommend Unistrut be contacted so they may
recommend the best method to attach the Unistrut to the building (www.unistrut.us). If the
spanning distance is greater than 6 feet (P1000) or 10 feet (P1001B), please consult a Structural
Engineer. Please refer to page 3
for the maximum torque and weight for both Model 550 and 780.
1.1.1A:
Span two pieces of 1-5/8” Unistrut open side facing down and space apart so there is
12-7/8” from outside edge to outside edge (See illustration for example).
1.1.2A:
Once the Unistrut is in place, apply liquid thread lock to the recommended bolts and use
the remaining recommended hardware to attach the mount to the Unistrut. Torque the bolts to
50ft-lbs. Recommended torque is based on 1/2-13’’ hardware.
1.1.3A:
Tighten the locking hardware on the rapid mount to 30 ft-lbs once the drop length
attachment point is level.

NOTE: Mounting to Z-purlins requires span mounting. Mounting to trusses requires two or
more trusses to be linked with Unistrut or angle iron.
