TICO® Pipe Grips
Key Features
- Cater for movements in the pipe due to e.g. thermal expansion and contraction
- Isolating the pipe from the mounting bolts and clamps to prevent fretting and corrosion
- Maintaining pipe spacing of multiple pipe runs over long spans
- Supporting and positively locating pipework over long spans
- Maintenance free and long service life
Product Description
TICO® pipe grips are crafted using a top-notch galvanised steel u-bolt paired with a fire-retardant moulded sleeve that does not facilitate the spread of flames across surfaces. They come in three standard variations: a ribbed rubber inner face (grip type), PTFE lined (guide type), and a high-temperature synthetic silicone (VHT type). All TICO® pipe grips are meticulously designed to reduce vibration levels between the pipework and hanger, contributing to the prevention of electrolytic corrosion. Each type possesses distinctive properties outlined below.
