A scale attached to a Variable Spring Hanger to provide a means of indicating the supported load.

A unique number used to identify pipe hangers.

A relative displacement between the Structural Attachment and Pipe Attachment, which may be incorporated into the design of the Pipe Hanger Assembly to accommodate the piping movement.

Any device used to connect the pipe to the remainder of the Pipe Hanger Assembly.

A bolted Pipe Attachment which clamps around the pipe to connect the pipe to the remainder of a Pipe Hanger Assembly.

A Pipe Attachment used to hold the pipe directly to a structure, also referred to as a strap or pipe strap.

A device used to permit pipe movement in a predetermined direction while restraining movement in other directions.

A device which is suspended from a structure and is used to carry the piping load in tension.

A roller device used to support horizontal piping and provide for axial movement.

A device by which piping is carried from beneath and is used to carry the piping weight in compression.

An assembly used to uphold a piping system at desired location.

A Pipe Hanger which does not permit vertical movement.

A Pipe Clamp for the support of vertical piping having separate Load Bolts, to transfer the piping load to the remainder of the Pipe Hanger Assembly.

Safe working load

A rod threaded its full length.

A Pipe Clamp normally used for horizontal insulated piping, which utilizes clamping bolts to attach the clamp to the pipe and a separate Load Bolt to transfer the piping weight to the remainder of the Pipe Hanger Assembly from a point outside the insulation.

A device with one left-hand female threaded end and one right-hand female threaded end, used to join two threaded rods and provide linear adjustment.

A U-shaped rod with threaded ends, that fits around a pipe as well as being attached to a supporting member.
