  • Publication number: 20040056156
    Abstract: A pipe hanger assembly is assembled from a hanger rod, a hanger block, a pipe support, at least an additional pipe support, pintles in the form of either pintle pins or bolts, and pintle retainers such as clips or nuts. The pipe supports are formed to form a throat into which a pipe is passed to engage the pipe support and the pipe support mated with the hanger block or another pipe support having an extension below the pipe support surface. The hanger block and pipe support are connected by a pintle, and lower supported pipe supports are similarly mated with the higher pipe support extension thereby forming a hanging assembly. A hanger member in the form of a “U-shaped” member also can be mated with the extension of a higher pipe support in order to suspend an additional hanger rod, hanger block and connected pipe support providing a spacing between adjacent pipe supports greater than that of two directly interconnected pipe supports.
