…2 unchanged lines
description: >
When to use: Selecting, specifying, and installing hangers, supports, anchors, guides, restraints, and structural attachments for mechanical piping (steel, copper, CPVC, PEX, glass, stainless) from cryogenic up to 750 °F, 1/2 in. through 24 in. and larger, and for floor- and structure-mounted mechanical equipment (pumps, boilers, heat exchangers, fan-coil units, condensing units, packaged skids). Covers rod sizing, structural attachments, trapeze assemblies, variable- and constant-spring supports, thermal anchors and guides, and seismic bracing per ASCE 7-22 Chapter 13 / IBC 2024, for new construction and renovation on projects of all sizes.
− Not intended for: Vibration isolation and seismic resilience mounts for rotating equipment (use [[sync/vibration-isolation-and-seismic-restraint]]); fire sprinkler hangers and sway braces governed by NFPA 13 (fire protection); HVAC ductwork supports (use [[sync/hvac-ductwork]]); insulation and insulation protection design (use [[sync/mechanical-insulation]]); pipe sizing, material selection, and pressure testing (use [[sync/hydronic-piping]]); electrical conduit and cable tray supports (use [[sync/structured-cabling]] and the electrical discipline); plumbing fixture carriers and plumbing DWV/supply hangers (plumbing discipline); and valve bodies (use [[sync/hvac-piping-valves]]).
