Introduction
PVC Pipe Clamps and Clips:
Pipes need to be fixed in order to provide stability to the plumbing and drainage system in any private or commercial setting, that’s where the pipe clamps and clips come in action.
Pipe clamps and clips provide support to the pipes fixed on the walls or suspended from the ceilings.
Pipe clamps and clips come in a wide range of variety as their needs may vary from simple situations to complex situations with heavy flow pipes.
PVC pipe clamps and clips are usually circular or semi-circular in shape with varying diameters depending on the diameters of pipes to be supported. Screws and bolts are required to fix these pipe clamp fittings (either using PVC pipe Hangers or directly) to the walls or solid support surface.
The plastic pipe clamps are used all over the length or the pipe along the surface to ensure a secure support system.
