  • Pipe support and method of installation
    Publication number: 20060131465
    Abstract: A pipe support includes a base, and a clamp that fits onto a protrusion of the base. The clamp and the base protrusion have opposed rigid pipe-receiving surfaces, thus defining a pipe-receiving area or region between the surfaces. In this area one or more pipes of various sizes may be removably secured. Asymmetric teeth on both the protrusion and legs of the clamp, may be utilized to secure the clamp to the protrusion of the base. The base has a flat bottom for resting flat along a flat surface, such as a roof or ceiling surface. The flat bottom may have an upturned lip to prevent damaging of the flat surface during installation of the pipe support. The flat bottom may also have drainage passages or a channel that may facilitate drainage of rainwater off of the top side of the flat bottom.
