Water and Waste treatment Facilities require that supports and hangers be of corrosion resistant materials wherever possible. historically, stainless steel hangers and or pvc coated hangers have been specified. plastic polymer hangers have entered the market providing the same corrosion resistance and performance at a more desirable costing and ease of installation. these range from nylon resins to fiberglass and other composite resins.

Supports and hangers should be installed according to the manufacturers recommendations for spacing and type of pipe, conduit and cable. one should review the mSdS specifications before installation.

certiFications the most common governing bodies regarding supports and hangers are Underwriters Laboratories and Factory Mutual. public buildings rely on Fm rated hangers for safety measures. these buildings are hospitals, schools, convention centers to name a few.

engineers and architects third party review of facility management often approves or specifies the hanger type to be used. the impact of the third party is to offer assurance of the correct product to be used reducing insurance risk while improving safety.

csi Quite often the engineer and architect will review 3-part CSi specifications that detail in depth products that are suitable for use. the specifications are also used for sourcing uSa made products.

Fasteners the choice of fastener types is huge and varies according to the mounting surfaces. From stainless steel to epoxy based anchors are an important part of the installation.

Additional facility types for using thermoplastic supports and hangers: agriculture and animal processing plants, car wash and transportation terminals, fertilizer plants, high-tech labs, pharmaceutical plants, power plants, research buildings, tunnels and metro system buildings.
