Video Transcript for The Low-Down on the Brophy Horizontal Pipe Holder for E Track

Randy: Hey guys, it's Randy here at etrailer.com again. Today we're taking a look at the Brophy Horizontal Pipe Holder. This part number is EHR6 and basically, it's going to be one ring designed to work with both E-Track and X-Track systems. And reasoning behind it, just like you see here, this is going to fit up to a six-inch piece of PVC pipe.You could use that just for transport, but I think what most guys are going to do, what you're going to see it used in most applications anyway. You need to put a pipe in here, put caps on either end, so you can store stuff in there, whether it's copper piping, tubing, things like that, things that tend to roll around and be a challenge to store. This is going to give us a really nice way to do that.Depending on the length of the item you plan on attaching to the wall, you'll want to use these either as a pair, maybe three or four of them, just depending on the length.

You'll see we're using a four-inch piece of PVC pipe now. You see there is plenty of room to get that six-inch installed. Something I've seen a few guys do, and I think it'll be really handy, especially if you're going to be using this for storage of other items.Once your pipe's in there, you can bring it here to the edge. Just drill a hole right through both the hanger and your pipe, and use a self-tapping screw that'll keep it from sliding forward and back. You see that quite a bit in these applications, to keep everything locked in place.Now, from the inside to the inside, we're looking at just over six inches.

You want to ensure that the piece of piping that you choose to go in there, has a six-inch outside diameter. A six-inch inside diameter pipe won't fit.Now, overall, it's a really nice, heavy-duty holder. You're going to have a one-inch thick steel strap there that goes all the way around. And of course, that connects to our E-Track holder. You know it's really nice and sturdy, there's no flex, there's no bend, there's no give in it.

So it's going to give you a lot of good service. And whether you're using it inside a trailer like we have here, or you plan on using it outside, that clear zinc finish is going to give us a really good corrosion resistance.Now, when getting your holder installed, this is going to be like any other E or X-Track accessory. We'll pull that in, place that up and in, and then just slide it down, and allow that to engage. That's going to keep it locked in position there. We won't have to worry about it coming out.

Something I like when using the X-Track, this can also work vertically. So if you wanted to rotate like that, and place your pipe in, that'll keep things contained up and down for you.So all in all, if you have a need for containment, especially in trailer situations, or if in garage situation, you want to get something smaller stored into a larger enclosed area, these are going to give you a great opportunity to place a nice, large piece of PVC pipe up there, cap it off and keep things contained inside.
