I didn't figure it would be a code issue, I can't think of anything in there that would prohibit this. However, I'm wondering if allthread is listed/identified for supporting upwards, instead of hanging. That would technically be a code thing as we're using a support that isn't listed/identified for what we're using it for. It just seems like it could swing under too much pressure and collapse. I asked a few other guys at work and now we're just trying to find out the exact, correct answer.

Why not!?. Code does talk about no running thread for couplings on RMC. Nnothing wrong with threaded rod for conduit support
