Piping Technology & Products designed these hydraulic snubbers for an ammonia plant in Louisiana. The snubbers ranged in length from 31″ up to 148″ pin-to-pin and cylinder diameters from 2.5″ to 5″. They are designed for an operating load raging from 3,000 lb. to 15,400 lb. and have a 5″ to 12″ stroke. Hydraulic snubbers are designed to protect the piping system when a sudden, heavy load is applied (such as an earthquake of high intensity), which can cause serious vibrations leading to damage and possible failure of the piping system.
