I have read that using galvanized metal strapping to support ABS is at best unprofessional, and at worst against code.
Unfortunately, alternatives seem to be lacking.
Plastic J-hooks seem to only be available at professional plumbing suppliers. The big boxes sell nothing but galvanized metal strapping, or metal clamps. I know plastic strapping exists but again I can't find anywhere that stocks it.
Best I have been able to find are PVC clamps - but they are made for electrical conduit and surely to raise questions for an inspector.
I can't help but think that if no one stocks anything else... maybe galvanized metal strapping is not a big deal here?
I am in Ontario and haven't been able to find anything definitive in the code.
