Puf Pipe Supports - Polyurethane Foam 100-500 kg/m³ Density Range | Load Bearing Insulated Pre-Assembled Design

Polyurethane foam is one of the major components of pre-insulated pipe supports. Manufactured at Piping Technology & Products. Polyurethane is different from most plastic materials in that it can be tailored to meet various load requirements of varying applications.

Old techniques of wooden pipe support for the erection of plant & pipe lines are now replaced by puf pipe support.

OPI offers a wide range of puf supports. Normally the density range of puf support is 100 kg/m3 to 350 kg/m3. But OPI also offers the density from 100 kg/m3 to 500 kg/m3.

OPI offers the puf supports as per requirement of clients in terms of design.

Insulated pipe supports are designed to prevent direct heat transfer between pipes and their supports. Thus they reduce heat loss due to conduction at each support. They serve the following purposes:

1. Carry the load and allow necessary movement at each suppose point.
2. Provide insulation in the support area where the regular pipe insulation cannot be installed.
3. Minimize the cost of field installation by reducing installation time.

The supports are not welded to the pipe and each unit is shipped completely assembled (except for the riser supports and anchor supports both of which require some welding).

Polyurethane is stronger in the direction of foam rise. At Piping Technology and Products the directional properties of our polyurethane is reduced by overloading the mould used to form the polyurethane.
