Heavy Duty Unlined Pipe Clamp With Welded Head is a high-performance steel clamp designed for the secure support and fastening of heavy-duty piping systems, including HDPE, ductile iron, steel, cast iron, and other industrial pipelines. Featuring a welded mounting head, it provides a strong and rigid connection for direct installation onto support structures, frames, and custom steel fabrications, ensuring maximum load-bearing capacity and long-term stability. Without a rubber lining, it is an economical and practical solution for applications where vibration and noise insulation are not required, making it ideal for heavy-duty industrial, infrastructure, water distribution, and mechanical piping systems. Manufactured from high-strength steel with an electro-galvanized (zinc-plated) finish, the clamp offers excellent corrosion resistance, outstanding mechanical strength, and long service life. It is designed to perform reliably under high static and dynamic loads in demanding industrial environments.

Technical Drawing
Application Example
Material and Coating
Body
High-strength cold-rolled steel, selected for its superior load-bearing capacity and long service life in demanding applications. The material ensures dimensional stability and mechanical reliability even under high stress conditions.
Standards
Produced in accordance with EN 10346 and ASTM A653 standards, guaranteeing consistent material quality and compliance with international norms.
Coating
Electro-galvanized (zinc-plated) coating, applied with advanced galvanization process, provides a durable protective layer against rust and surface wear. This finish ensures excellent resistance to moisture, chemicals, and indoor as well as outdoor environments. The coating also improves the product’s long-term durability, reducing maintenance needs and extending service life.
Mechanical Performance
The combination of cold-rolled steel body and electro-galvanized surface delivers a robust structure with high tensile and yield strength, ensuring reliable use in industrial, residential, and commercial piping systems.
Installation and Maintenance
Positioning and Drilling
Determine the installation points according to the project drawings. Mark the clamp locations, ensuring correct alignment and slope of the pipeline. Drill holes that match the clamp’s mounting requirements.
Fixing the Clamp
Secure the welded head section directly to the supporting structure using appropriate anchors or bolts. Ensure the clamp is firmly fixed in place for maximum load capacity.
Pipe Placement and Clamping
Open the clamp, position the pipe into the clamp body, and close the clamp arms. Gradually tighten the bolts to achieve secure fastening without stressing the pipe.
Tightening and Inspection
Verify that all bolts are evenly tightened with the proper torque. Confirm the correct slope and alignment of the pipeline. Check that the pipe remains free of excessive pressure during fastening.
Maintenance
Periodically check the tightening torque of the bolts. In case of loosening or deformation, immediate corrective action must be taken. For environments exposed to corrosion, regular inspection and surface cleaning are recommended.
Application Areas
Structural Natural Gas Piping Installations
Suitable for supporting natural gas pipes in building and structural installations, subject to the project specifications, pipe material, design load, spacing requirements, and applicable natural gas installation regulations.
Industrial Mechanical Installations
Used for heavy steel, cast-iron, ductile-iron, and HDPE pipework in factories, production plants, and mechanical rooms where high load capacity and rigid support are required without rubber isolation.
Heating, Cooling and Utility Lines
Suitable for large-diameter hot-water, chilled-water, and process utility pipelines, subject to the project’s load, spacing, and temperature requirements.
Infrastructure and Technical Facilities
Used in tunnels, utility corridors, treatment facilities, and large building-service installations requiring robust, corrosion-protected, and economical pipe support.
