PG Series Insulated Pipe Guides

pgseriesinsulatedpipeguides

Description / Features

The Value Engineered Products line of insulated pipe guides is engineered to provide a superior method for pipe alignment and controlled travel. Insulation efficiency is achieved from the use of a unique and rugged Xonotlite insulation insert. This insert eliminates areas of heat loss or gain, impossible to control with direct attachment systems. The rugged nature and high compressive strength of this insert material allows the elimination of intermediary pipe supports resulting in fewer mechanical components to purchase and install. The 'PG' series of pipe guides incorporates a logical system of hardware design where pipe size and insulation thickness dictate the construction of the unit. PG Series insulated pipe guides are far superior to pipe rollers and may be seismic rated. The use of 'PS Series' pipe slides along with the 'PG Series' pipe guides assures that the critical 'bottom of pipe' (BOP) to 'top of steel' (TOS) dimension stays constant throughout the system.

PG-Plus Series insulated pipe guides allow additional axial travel up to nine inches. Units for severe loads and/or greater travel are available by design.
