Inox Pipe U-clips

What is the difference between a rigid and a rubber-lined clamp?

The rigid clamp offers a more stable and robust fixing, ideal for rigid pipes and heavy-duty applications. The rubber-lined clamp, thanks to the protective rubber, better absorbs vibrations and protects flexible pipes from rubbing and wear.

Can I use these stainless steel pipe supports for the engine exhaust pipe?

Yes, our AISI 316 stainless steel pipe clamps are also suitable for fixing engine exhaust pipes, thanks to their high resistance to corrosion and high temperatures. Always check the diameter compatibility.

How do I choose the right size pipe clamp?

Measure the outside diameter of the pipe you need to fix and choose a pipe clamp with a slightly larger opening. For example, for a pipe with an outside diameter of 20 mm, choose a pipe clamp with a 22-25 mm opening.

Are the pipe clamps resistant to saltwater?

Absolutely yes. Our pipe clamps are made of AISI 316 stainless steel, specifically chosen for its high resistance to corrosion caused by saltwater, making them ideal for the marine environment.

Can I use these pipe clamps for electrical wiring?

Yes, stainless steel pipe clamps can be used to fix and protect electrical wiring on board, ensuring a secure and vibration-resistant fixing. Be sure to choose the appropriate size for the cable diameter.

Is it necessary to use a sealant with the pipe clamps?

The use of a silicone sealant is recommended, especially in humid or water-exposed environments, to prevent galvanic corrosion and ensure a watertight seal. Apply the sealant between the pipe clamp and the mounting surface.

What is the expected lifespan of stainless steel pipe clamps?

Thanks to their AISI 316 stainless steel construction, our pipe clamps offer exceptional durability, even in harsh marine conditions. With proper installation and maintenance, they can last for many years without showing signs of corrosion or deterioration.
