Medium duty pipe clamps are mass-produced using a forming die for smaller sizing and press-breaking (sometimes called bump-forming) for larger sizes. Medium duty clamps can be furnished black/bare or galvanized. Sometimes these types of clamps need liners to prevent the clamp from touching the surface of the pipe (usually this is scene with stainless steel […]

Pipe support pedestals are usually made to be adjustable, but under certain circumstances a stationary solution may be needed!
