About Pipe Hangers and Pipe Supports
Pipe hangers and pipe supports include clevis hangers, beam clamps, pipe clamps, brackets, pipe straps and other accessories that hold or support pipes in place. Pipe hangers can be used as anchor points to control expansion. In a piping system, devices such as valves, heavy flanges and pumps should be supported independently. Typically, a pipe hanger is suspended from a beam or other structural support above the pipes. By contrast, a pipe support rests or is secured to a floor or other structural support below the pipes. A pipe clamp can be attached in any direction, typically to a wall or other upright structural support. A pipe strap can support pipe and in some cases provide additional strength to the pipe wall, as in a temporary repair. A pipe bracket is a plate or tube that holds pipe in place. An industrial pipe hanger is designed for long service in harsh conditions, such as extreme temperatures, corrosive environments, and heavy vibrations.
