Pipe cradles are a very cost-effective support
structures for pipelines where there is minimal lateral movement and the mass
of the pipe and its contents can hold itself in position. As the pipe cradle does not have a clamp or
guide assembly to rigidly hold the pipeline in the desired location, pipe
cradles can accommodate a reasonable degree of longitudinal expansion and
contraction of the pipe itself. Pipe
cradles also provide a level of flexibility to function in areas of seismic
instability.
Australian pipe supports and pipe saddles specialists, Anchorage™ Group, have
released a comprehensive range of pipe cradles that provide a cost-effective
means of supporting pipelines from 200mm diameter through to 1.5 metres. Anchorage™ Group Pipe Cradles are supplied with a standard
baseplate for welding to a fabricated support; however custom cradles can be
fabricated on request. Alternatively a slotted or punched baseplate can be
provided for bolting the cradle to a concrete plinth or steel support
structure.
Anchorage™ Group Pipe Cradles are designed and manufactured in Australia from mild steel and supplied
with a durable hot dip galvanised finish, as standard. Steel pipe cradles can
be wet-sprayed or powder-coated from a vast range of colours to complement site
aesthetics and meet architectural requirements. As a full service pipe support
and pipe cradle manufacture, Anchorage™ Group also
produce stainless steel pipe cradles for maximum corrosion resistance in harsh
environments.
