Trapeze Roller Hangers For A Food Processing Facility

Type: Trapeze Roller Hangers
Size: 2-5/8″ to 16-3/8″ L x 4″ to 16″ Dia. | 600 to 3,970 lb. Load
Material: Cast Iron
Testing: Standard quality control inspections

Piping Technology & Products designed these trapeze roller hangers for a food processing facility in Kentucky. Rollers are typically employed when axial movement at the support location results in swing angles exceeding 4 degrees.

The rollers are available in lengths ranging from 2-5/8″ to 16-3/8″ for pipe diameters between 4″ and 16″. Constructed with cast iron rolls and sockets along with steel roll rods, they ensure durability and adaptability for a range of applications.

The rollers are oriented horizontally for the suspension of pipes using two all threaded vertical rods and hex nuts for vertical adjustments, effectively accommodating longitudinal movement caused by thermal expansion or contraction. They are designed for load ratings ranging from 600 to 3,970 lbs.

Standard quality control inspections were conducted prior to shipment to ensure compliance with industry standards. Similar applications by Piping Technology & Products include:

  • Wastewater facilities
  • Food Service
  • Bridges
  • Cooling Towers
  • Refineries
  • Gas Plants

In addition to standard rollers, we offer machinable rollers made from specialized non-metallic materials, such as polyurethane and polyurethane foam. These materials can be custom-contoured to meet unique project specifications using our in-house manufacturing capabilities.

For larger roller assemblies, Piping Technology & Products provides complete customization options, including finite element analysis (FEA) to ensure the design meets the exact requirements of your piping system. Whether you need standard or customized solutions, our team is equipped to deliver quality products tailored to your application.

14” Diameter Pipe Shoe Assemblies for a Refining Project in Saudi Arabia
April 2, 2024

14” Diameter Pipe Clamp Assemblies Designed And Manufactured By Pt&Amp;P For A Refining Project In Saudi Arabia

Piping Technologies & Products fabricated these special designed Split-T pipe shoes using a Figure 50 “two-bolt pipe clamp” with added gusset plates welded beneath the clamps for a refining project in Saudi Arabia. The gusset plates are added to increase the vertical load-carrying capacity. The pipe shoes are 4″ height x 15.5″ wide x 18″ long and were fabricated from A36 carbon steel with a hot-dipped galvanized finish. They are designed for a pipe size of 14″ with an operating temperature from -29°C to 316°C. The pipe shoes are capable of supporting an operating load of 34,000 lb.

 

We provide such products in a “clamp-on-shoe” configuration to meet the needs of client applications where welding the pipe shoe onto the process line is prohibited. Depending on the client’s specifications, we can design and manufacture these shoes without a finish (black) or various painted finishes in place of hot-dipped galvanizing to expedite the delivery of the order. We can manufacture these clamp-on-pipe shoes with different metallurgies, such as 304 or 316 stainless steel, to accommodate high temperatures or cryogenic applications depending on the project’s needs. This basic pipe support is used in industries ranging from automotive, petrochemical, LNG, and refining in almost every major processing unit to maintain pipe elevations and handle loads imposed by media movement.

Pt&Amp;P Roller Hangers For An Aviation Facility In California

Type: Roller Hangers
Size: 12″ Wide and 15″ Tall
Material: Cast Iron & Carbon Steel
Design: 965 lbs. Operating Load & 10″ Pipe Size
Testing: Standard Quality Control

These Fig. 195 roller hangers were designed by PT&P for an aviation facility in California. They measure 12″ in width and 15″ in height. The rollers are fabricated from cast iron, with the yoke, roll rod, and hex nuts from carbon steel. The units are designed for a pipe size of 10″ and an operating load of 965 lbs. Standard quality control tests were performed prior to shipment. Roller hangers are used for the suspension of pipe from a single rod where axial movement may occur because of expansion or contraction. These are often used on bridges where pipelines cross waterways such as rivers and bayous. If there is extensive traffic, they can be used in conjunction with variable springs to accommodate such factors as vibration, wind, and other external factors. This particular job is an excellent demonstration of our ability to support quick turn request to meet the needs of our clients as it was shipped before the contract date in less than a week’s time.

Our roots are deeply embedded in the petrochemical, power, energy, and refining sectors. We remain adaptable, constantly seeking opportunities to contribute to pivotal projects. Our recent diversification into various industry verticals encompasses participation in both private and public sector space exploration. Additionally, we play a pivotal role in the flourishing 11.2 billion-dollar data center industry, driven by advancements in AI and its widespread adoption.

Time-to-market is a paramount consideration for our projects. Leveraging our Houston-based manufacturing facility, we stand out as a market leader, possessing the capability to support large volumes within tight timeframes. This agility is particularly crucial for the time-sensitive nature of semiconductor, pharmaceutical, EV battery, and automotive production facilities.

Heavy-Duty Pipe Clamps For Service At A Coal-Fired Power Plant

These clamps were installed in a coal-fired power plant on the Ohio River and this plant features one of the largest smokestacks in the world at 1038 feet. For this plant, sub-bituminous coal is used in conjunction with steam turbine technology to generate thermal power with over 10k Gigawatts of output annually.

Heavy-duty pipe clamps are bolted around the pipe and connect to the remainder of the pipe hanger assembly. This assembly included a Fig. 30 Forged Turnbuckle, which is also available on Amazon as a stocked item. PT&P maintains an extensive inventory of pipe clamps required for pipe hangers and support assemblies. These Fig. 80 Three-Bolt Pipe Clamps are fabricated from carbon steel and for this project, the pipe clamps were painted with a red oxide primer. These pipe clamps are designed for 36” diameter pipelines and are recommended for suspension of cold pipelines or hotlines where little or no insulation is required and are capable of supporting both horizontal and vertical piping. A visual inspection test along with “sample pipe” dimensional checks were conducted prior to shipment.

Such clamps can be used in any type of piping system for various industries such as chemical, biofuel, food processing, and refining plants. We have the ability to get such products at your jobsite overnight given our pipe hanger hardware inventory of over 1 million pounds, our quick order system through Amazon, and 24/7 manufacturing and engineering support provided by our teams around the clock.
