ANVIL FIG 40 Riser Clamp, Standard, 1 Inch Through 2 Inch Pipe

Anvil FIG 40 riser clamp is used in the construction industry to support vertical piping systems and prevent thermal expansion & contraction and damage. It ensures stability and reduces strain on the piping, minimising the risk of structural issues.

Working Mechanism:

• A riser clamp is a two-point load-bearing component and is ideal for vertical running pipelines where welding of shear lugs is carried out.
• The top surface of the riser clamp contacts the shear lug, and the load is transferred through the clamp's legs to support components such as a spring or rigid rod.

Features:

• This clamp comes in carbon steel construction, making it suitable to use in temperatures of up to 650 degrees F.
• It offers plain / hot-dip galvanised finish to prevent corrosion on exposed surfaces.

Standards and Approvals:

• Federal Specification A-A-1192A (Type 42)
• ANSI/MSS SP-69
• MSS SP-58

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. Where can riser clamps be located?

A. Riser clamps can be located at the top of the riser, at the lowest level of the building, on alternate floors in between, and below & above every horizontal offset of the riser.

Q. What factors should I consider while choosing a riser clamp?

A.

• Material compatibility with the piping system.
• Temperature range that the clamp can withstand.
• Corrosion resistance for longevity.
• Load-bearing capacity to support the weight of the piping.
• Adequate insulation for thermal expansion and contraction.

Q. What safety precautions should I take while using Anvil FIG 40 riser clamp?

A.

• Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) during installation.
• Follow manufacturer guidelines for proper installation and use.
• Ensure the clamp is securely fastened and prevent potential hazards.
• Regularly inspect the clamp for signs of wear or damage.
• Adhere to relevant safety protocols and regulations during handling and maintenance.

Q. Does Raptor Supplies offer other rising clamps of smaller size?

A. Yes, customers looking for rising clamps with smaller sizes can opt for Anvil FIG 261SS rising clamp. It has a clamp size of 1/2 inch through 12 inches. This clamp features stainless steel construction for structural rigidity and durability.
