Pipe Hangers with PVC Inserts: Types, Benefits, and Installation Tips

When working with stainless tubing in industrial or commercial applications, selecting the right pipe hangers is essential. At Duva Sanitary, we provide high-quality pipe hangers with PVC inserts designed specifically to support stainless tubing. These hangers offer reliable performance and a host of benefits, ensuring your piping system operates efficiently and securely.

In this article, we’ll cover the types of pipe hangers with PVC inserts, their key benefits, and practical tips for installation.

Understanding Pipe Hangers with PVC Inserts

Pipe hangers with PVC inserts are not designed for use with PVC pipes; instead, they are intended to support stainless tubing. The PVC insert acts as a buffer between the hanger and the tubing, preventing metal-to-metal contact, which can cause damage or wear over time.

These hangers are commonly used in applications such as:

  • Food and beverage processing
  • Pharmaceutical manufacturing
  • Cleanroom environments
  • Other industries requiring sanitary tubing systems

Types of Pipe Hangers with PVC Inserts

  1. Standard Pipe Hangers
    Designed for general-use stainless tubing systems, these hangers come with durable PVC inserts to protect the tubing and maintain its integrity.
  2. Adjustable Hangers
    These provide flexibility during installation, allowing precise alignment of the tubing.
  3. Specialty Hangers
    For unique applications, such as high-temperature or corrosive environments, specialized hangers with advanced PVC inserts are available.

Benefits of Using Pipe Hangers with PVC Inserts

  • Enhanced Tubing Protection
    The PVC insert prevents direct contact between the stainless tubing and the hanger, reducing wear, vibration, and potential damage.
  • Corrosion Resistance
    The PVC insert and stainless steel construction resist corrosion, making these hangers suitable for clean and sanitary environments.
  • Easy Maintenance
    The design ensures ease of access, simplifying cleaning and maintenance procedures.
  • Noise Reduction
    The PVC insert minimizes vibration and noise, ensuring quieter operations in sensitive environments.

 

Tips for Installing Pipe Hangers with PVC Inserts

  1. Proper Placement
    Ensure hangers are positioned to support the tubing evenly, preventing sagging or stress on the tubing.
  2. Secure Fastening
    Use appropriate hardware to securely anchor the hanger to the structure. Check that the tubing fits snugly within the PVC insert without excessive force.
  3. Avoid Over-Tightening
    Over-tightening can compress the PVC insert excessively, reducing its effectiveness and potentially damaging the tubing.
  4. Inspect Regularly
    Periodically check the hangers and inserts for wear or damage and replace as needed to maintain system integrity.
