INSULATED SUPPORTS
Insulated pipe supports are designed to prevent
direct heat transfer between pipes and their supports. Thus, they reduce heat
loss due to conduction at each support. They serve the following purposes:
- Carry the load and allow necessary
movement at each suppose point.
- Provide insulation in the support area
where the regular pipe insulation cannot be installed.
- Minimize the cost of field installation by reducing
installation time. The supports are not welded to the
pipe and each unit is shipped completely assembled
(except for the riser supports and anchor supports, both
of which require some welding).
The details of PT&P's standard insulated pipe supports are
given in this catalog.* We can customize our design to meet your
particular load, bottom-of-pipe elevation, and movement
requirements. We can also manufacture insulated pipe supports per
your design and specification.
