PT&P designed these roller stands for a refinery in Mississippi. The rollers were designed for ease of assembly to support a 10″ diameter pipeline. They are comprised of cast iron roll and sockets, steel roll rod, continuous thread rods and hex nuts. These rollers are designed to support a maximum load of 2,100 lb. and to allow axial movement of the pipeline.
PT&P designed spring loaded stainless steel roller stands for a wastewater treatment plant. The rollers were custom designed for ease of assembly to support a 30″ diameter pipeline. They include eight springs in two spring housings and are designed for 1,000 lb. load. The base plate is 18-3/4″ x 13″ and the BOP is 10-3/16″. Roller stands are used to support pipelines that expand and contract longitudinally in the axial direction and where vertical adjustment is not necessary.
