  2. Riser clamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riser_clamp

    A riser clamp is a type of hardware used by mechanical building trades for pipe support in vertical runs of piping (risers) at each floor level. The devices are placed around the pipe, and integral fasteners are then tightened to clamp them onto the pipe.

  3. Pipe clamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pipe_clamp

    In piping, a pipe clamp is a bottled attachment that clamps around the pipe. The clamps can be manufactured with black or galvanized finishes. Uses Pipe clamps being used to glue up a wooden lamination. A common use of pipe clamps in woodworking is for edge gluing; several boards being joined edge to edge to produce a wider surface such as a ...

  4. Hose clamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hose_clamp

    T clamps are designed for high pressure pipes and hoses such as turbo pressure hoses and coolant hoses for high pressure engines. These clamps have a small grub screw that pulls the two halves of the clamp together to securely fasten heavy duty hoses.

  5. Piping and plumbing fitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piping_and_plumbing_fitting

    Flange fittings are generally used to connect valves, inline instruments or equipment nozzles. Two surfaces are joined tightly together with threaded bolts, wedges, clamps, or other means of applying high compressive force.

  6. U-bolt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U-bolt

    A U-bolt is a bolt in the shape of the letter U with screw threads on both ends. U-bolts have primarily been used to support pipework, pipes through which fluids and gasses pass. As such, U-bolts were measured using pipe-work engineering speak. A U-bolt would be described by the size of pipe it was supporting.

  7. Clamp (tool) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clamp_(tool)

    Top: Pipe clamp; Upper row: F-clamp or bar clamp, one-handed bar clamp ("Quick Grip"), wooden handscrew; Lower row: spring clamp, C-clamp (G-clamp ), wooden cam clamp. A clamp is a fastening device used to hold or secure objects tightly together to prevent movement or separation through the application of inward pressure.

  8. Marman clamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marman_clamp

    Marman clamps are used extensively in spaceflight systems and are common mechanical load-transfer and clamping mechanisms for connecting the upper stage and the satellite payload of space vehicles, for example, on the Cassini Plasma Spectrometer on the Cassini orbiter. They may also be used to join stages of a booster rocket.

  9. Hold down (structural engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hold_down_(structural...

    The hold downs provide uplift resistance against the overturning moment imposed on the wall due to "in-plane" lateral load applied at the top of the wall. A hold-down may also refer to clamping device used to anchor a pipe to a structural steel element or concrete floor or allow movement of the pipe in an axial direction.

  10. Structural pipe fitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_pipe_fitting

    A structural pipe fitting, also known as a slip on pipe fitting, clamp or pipe clamp is used to build structures such as handrails, guardrails, and other types of pipe or tubular structure. They can also be used to build furniture and theatrical riggings.

  11. Pipe support - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pipe_support

    The weight of risers (vertical sections of pipe) can be supported by riser clamps. Occasional loads: Wind load: Piping which are located outdoors and thus exposed to wind will be designed to withstand the maximum wind velocity expected during the plant operating life.
