The load rating of each support is often dependent upon how the support is mounted (flat surface, roller, clevis hanger). Heavy valve loads, wind loads, and/or thermal loads may have to be accommodated. Provision for axial and/or lateral travel, due to thermal growth, may have to be made. The pipe may require guiding or restraint. Supports mounted on 10′-0 centers do not require the load carrying capability that is required by supports on 40′-0 centers. These and other considerations resulted in the creation of a family of insulated pipe supports enabling the customer to select the most economic unit sufficient for the purpose intended.
