240 Welded Eye Rods for an Ammonia Plant
April 30, 2004
Piping Technology and Products, Inc. designed and manufactured 240 PT&P Figure 110 welded eye rods for an ammonia plant in Saudi Arabia. The rods will be attached to Type A variable springs designed to support loads from 850 lb. to 13,300 lb. Manufactured from A-36 carbon steel, the rods are 3/4 to 2 in diameter and range in length from 68 to 95. To prevent contamination at high temperatures, a red oxide primer with an alkyd topcoat was applied to the rods as per the customer’s request. Prior to shipment, a 100% dye-penetrant test was performed to ensure quality.

Rods and Clevises for a Natural Gas Combined Cycle Facility
June 21, 2002
Piping Technology & Products, Inc. designed and manufactured hundreds of hanger rods and clevises for a 1,250 MW natural gas combined cycle facility in Mississippi.
The rod and clevis components were made of various alloys (800H, F91, 316H, SA-387 Gr. 22) and ranged in sizes from 2″ to 4″ diameter. Taking into account the surrounding environment’s conditions, engineers designed the rods and clevises so that they can endure temperatures escalating to 1430º F. For the duration of a pull test conducted, the clevises and rods sustained loads up to 152,000 lbs. and there were no discrepancies.

Engineered Spring Supports (Practical, Hands-on Approach) Webinar
Date: Thursday, April 18, 2024 - Register for 10:00 am OR 2:00 pm
*Note: Time Zone is CDT * Central Daylight Savings Time / GMT -5h
Live Webinars are 1 PE/PDH Credit for TX Professional Engineers
Learn how the theoretical applications of spring supports are put into use in the real world. We will start with a review of the working principles of both variable and constant springs. See how brand new spring looks at delivery, and review installation guidelines. Learn the key points to review through the total installation process and subsequently when the springs are in operation. See how to determine if springs need adjustments, re-calibration, refurbishment, or replacement. View in field examples, shutdown, and isolation procedures. See the selection process required when there are significant changes to the operating condition.
