Within a two-week span, PT&P designed and fabricated eight Stainless Steel, grade-304, types B & E Constants for a marine plant. These constants have a travel of 1 1/2 – 5″ and are specified to carry 50 – 1540 lbs load. Stainless steel was requested due to the corrosive nature of the environment. PT&P also manufactured nine Carbon Steel types B & E Constants for this project.

Piping Technology & Products, Inc. recently designed and manufactured twenty 28″ dia. Hotshoes (high temperature pre-insulated pipe supports) for a natural gas plant in Massachusetts. These supports are assembled with a 5″ thick high-density Calcium silicate insulation layer, in addition to stainless steel, Kaowool, and PTFE, 25% glass filled, slide plate materials. The supports are designed to support loads from 25 kips-50 kips at an operating temperature of 1800 degrees F. The shoes also allow for a travel of 7″ where applicable. PT&P also designed and fabricated rod hangers with variable spring supports for this project.

Piping Technology & Products, Inc. designed and manufactured 85 support assemblies for a power generation facility in Georgia. These assemblies consisted of Variable and Constant Assemblies and structures made with carbon steel and alloy material. The variable spring hanger assemblies have standard three-bolt clamps and lug attachments for the existing pipes. These variable spring hangers accommodate operating loads varying from 8,000 to 18,000 lb. and 1-1/2 ” of upward travel. PT&P also manufactured a Fig.43 (heavy duty yoke u-bolt) for a 14″ diameter pipe. Components of the Fig. 43 include yoke, U-bolt, shield, and lug. The structure (beam, plate, angle, and tube steel) was painted green as per the customer’s specifications.

Piping Technology & Products, Inc. designed and manufactured sixty nine Upthrust Constants for a construction site in Chad, Africa. They range in constant size from 31-61 and are composed of A36 carbon steel. The applicable loads and travel for these constants are from 1,700 lbs.-17,000 lbs. and 3”-8”, respectively. The installed height for this job was much higher than our standard constants, so we had to customize them. By extending the height of our standard constant with an additional angle we were able to meet the installed height.

Piping Technology & Products, Inc. designed and manufactured several variable assemblies with pre-insulated pipe clamps for a chemical company in Texas. These assemblies are constructed of galvanized carbon steel hangers and hardware with Marinite® insulation. The fabricated clamps range in size from 10″ to 30″, insulation thickness of 1″ to 8″ and with spring hanger sizes 80-180 standard, double, and triple variable spring hangers.

Keeping Ahead of the Competition
Sweco Fab, Inc. recently designed and fabricated 58 floating rings for a Refinery in Saudi Arabia. Ranging from 40″- 155″ in diameter and 12″- 18″ in height, these rings weigh more than 1,500 lbs. each and are made from SA240-316H stainless steel plate with thickness of 1/2″ – 1 1/2″. All rings are fabricated by Full Penetration Weld and examined by dye penetration test.

Piping Technology & Products recently designed and manufactured four fig. 2100 hydraulic shock snubbers for a refinery in California. Carbon steel was used to manufacture these snubbers. They support a maximum load of 14,000 lbs., have a 3” cylinder, and 5” stroke load. This was a custom job where the customer provided the figure number, cylinder size, and stroke load; we built the snubbers according to these specifications.

Piping Technology & Products, Inc. recently designed and manufactured 200 U-Type upthrust constants for a geothermal plant in Hawaii. The constant pictured on the left has frame dimensions of W 40″ x H 75″ x L 142″, a constant load of 9,888 lb. to 10,239 lb. and a design travel of 46″. It also utilizes rollers and PTFE, 25% glass filled slide plates to reduce the friction resulting from axial movements. All the constants in this project are composed of A36 carbon steel. Standard load testing and travel testing were conducted prior to shipment.
