  • Patent number: 8505857
    Abstract: Systems and methods for supporting one or more pipes are provided. The pipe support system can include a first isolator and a second isolator at least partially disposed about a pipe such that at least a portion of the first and second isolators oppose one another. The pipe support system can also include a third isolator at least partially disposed about the pipe between a first set of ends of the first and second isolators and a fourth isolator at least partially disposed about the pipe between a second set of ends of the first and second isolators such that at least a portion of the third and fourth isolators oppose one another. An inner surface of the combination of the first, second, third, and fourth isolators can surround a perimeter of the pipe to provide an insulated pipe. The pipe system can also include at least one clamp at least partially disposed about the insulated pipe.
