PT&P custom designed big ton spring supports for a chemical plant in Singapore. These supports are ideal for bearing the weight of large, heavy equipment such as compressors, vessels, and pumps in power and petrochemical plants. The supports feature a carbon steel housing and frame, with a spring coil made from SAE 5160H. The design allows for a controlled movement of 1.75 inches upward under an operating load of 130,642 N. This solution prevents the need for a complete redesign of the piping system, offering significant cost savings to the customer. These custom Big Ton supports were delivered within six weeks.
Throughout the years, we’ve encountered numerous instances where clients have approached us with unique and unconventional applications requiring either a completely new product or modifications to an existing one. A prime example is our Big Ton, which was developed in response to a client’s request for a support capable of bearing 1 million pounds. We’ve designed Big Tons for a range of industries, including LNG, petrochemical, refining, and PDH facilities. Beyond design and manufacturing, these supports undergo thorough in-house testing by our QC teams to ensure full functionality before being shipped to the client.
