Pipe Hangers & Supports

Most pipe systems are designed to withstand some abuse, including extreme temperatures, pressurized fluids, the environment they’re placed in, and the weight of the media they carry, but there’s no reason to stress them unnecessarily. The durability and longevity that you need in your piping systems requires some ductility, which also means that you need to prevent excess sagging and flexing that could lead to breakage and leaks.

We either stock or can import commercial, light-duty, or heavy-duty hangers and supports for your piping systems, including clamps, braces, inserts, rods, structural attachments, slides, and guides. They’re designed to offer support and handle the weight of the pipe, valves, fittings, and whatever media the piping system is carrying.

We keep an inventory of pipe hangers and supports that include:

Constant Support & Variable Spring Hangers

Piping systems aren’t always entirely stationary. When you have a horizontal pipe that’s expected to have some vertical movement, you should consider a constant support hanger. These come equipped with an internal spring, so they move as the pipe does, absorbing excess shock to your piping system. Variable spring hangers work in a similar way but are used in strictly vertical systems to help support them through thermal expansion and contraction.
