PT&P designed and fabricated F-type and C-type variable spring supports for an acid plant in Canada. The variables range from 4″-8″ in diameter and can accommodate between .039″– 5.02″ in movement. They are designed for an operating temperature of 200°F and operating loads between 509 lb. and 13,489 lb. The variable springs are coated with a red oxide coating to protect against corrosion and underwent standard and load travel tests prior to shipment.
