  • Patent number: 6149107
    Abstract: A one-piece, prefabricated bracket is provided which conveniently and effectively supports a pipe fitting having a change-of-direction section to an adjacent surface. The bracket is comprised of a body, a surround element, means for supporting the pipe fitting and means for attaching the bracket to the surface. In a typical embodiment, the bracket is adapted for supporting a T fitting or an ell fitting. The surround element is sized and dimensioned to surround the change-of-direction section of the pipe fitting so as to firmly retain the pipe fitting within the bracket. The attachment means is typically a pair of spaced-apart flanges attached to the body.
