Figure 138R Malleable Iron Plain Finish Extension Split Pipe Clamp
The Figure 138R Malleable Iron Plain Finish Extension Split Pipe Clamp is a durable pipe support designed for securing non-insulated stationary pipelines in commercial, industrial, refrigeration, compressor, and mechanical piping applications. Manufactured from strong malleable iron with a plain finish, the Figure 138R provides a firm grip on the pipe while offering a convenient design that helps simplify installation and maintenance.
Available in sizes from 3/8" through 3", this extension split pipe clamp has a maximum service temperature of 450°F, making it suitable for a broad range of compatible piping systems.
Plain Malleable Iron Construction
The Figure 138R Extension Split Pipe Clamp features rugged malleable iron construction for strength and dependable pipe support. Its plain finish is well suited for applications where a protective zinc coating is not required or where the hanger will be used in an appropriate controlled environment.
The clamp's interior design provides a firm grip on the pipe, helping maintain secure positioning of stationary piping.
Hinged Design for Rapid Installation
A key feature of the Figure 138R is its hinged construction with a single closure screw. This design allows the clamp to be quickly opened, positioned around the pipe, and secured, helping reduce installation time.
The inside of the ring is tapered to help prevent entrapment of condensed moisture, providing an important design advantage in applications where condensation may develop.
Ideal for Refrigeration and Compressor Piping
When used with a suitable nipple, the Figure 138R split pipe clamp is particularly adaptable for refrigeration or compressor piping subject to vibration.
The Figure 138R complies with Federal Specification A-A-1192A Type 12, WW-H-171-E Type 25, ANSI/MSS SP-69, and MSS SP-58 Type 12.
Combining malleable iron strength, rapid hinged installation, secure pipe gripping, and recognized industry compliance, the Figure 138R Plain Finish Extension Split Pipe Clamp provides dependable support for non-insulated stationary piping systems.
