Choose a pipe support family by its function and installation arrangement. Review product configurations, technical inputs and manufacturing evidence before sending a drawing, support schedule or enquiry.
| What the support must do | Product family | Start with these inputs |
|---|---|---|
| Carry a load through vertical movement where the resulting load variation is acceptable under the project stress criteria | Variable spring hangers or base-mounted supports | Operating load, movement and direction, allowable load variation, installation arrangement |
| Maintain an approximately constant supporting load through travel | Constant spring hangers and constant spring supports | Specified support load, total travel, installed position and available space |
| Allow slow movement but restrain rapid displacement | Hydraulic snubbers for piping | Design restraint load, stroke, dynamic requirements, connection geometry |
| Carry, guide or restrain a line at a defined point | Pipe shoes, guides and anchors; clamps and clevis hangers | Pipe OD, support loads and directions, temperature, interface and finish |
This is a starting guide, not a substitute for the project support design. Prepare an enquiry or review manufacturing evidence.
Base-mounted type F spring supports — the line carried from below, same seamless casing, load path inverted.
Suspended variable spring hangers for pipework with vertical thermal movement — sized to your load and travel.
MA-Series constant hangers holding load within ≤3% through large vertical travel — bench-tested per unit.

Constant load from below — single or multi-cell base-mounted units for large travel and heavy loads.

The conventional linkage pattern in a floor-standing frame — within the 6% limit, economical.
The conventional linkage constant support — within the 6% standard limit, bench-tested, economical.

The economical welded-casing spring support for general service — same sizing service, friendlier budget.
Two-bolt clamps, clevis hangers, riser clamps — carbon or stainless, DN15 to DN1200.
Welded and clamped shoes, sliding supports with PTFE plates, guides and fixed anchors.
U-bolts, threaded rods, beam clamps and hardware — HDG, zinc plated or stainless.
41×41 channel, fittings and seismic bracing assemblies for MEP and building services.
