Anvil FIG 177 adjustable pipe roll support suspends pipes from a supporting base in applications restricting longitudinal movement caused by expansion or contraction. It is also suitable for operations where vertical adjustment up to 6 inches may be required. They are used to cradle or support the pipe's weight and transfer it to the supporting base.
Working Mechanism:
- Anvil FIG 177 pipe roll support is typically installed directly on steel beams or bracket angles.
- It fits the pipe between it's threaded rods to reduce movement.
- This pipe roll support is then adjusted for a tighter fit.
Features:
- Anvil FIG 177 adjustable pipe roll support comprises roll & sockets made of cast iron, roll rods made of steel and continuous thread rods & hex nuts.
- It has plain, zinc plating (hot-dip galvanised) or resilient coating options for operating in moderately corrosive conditions, severe weather conditions and environments having ultra-violet radiation.
- This adjustable pipe roll support can accommodate pipes having 1 to 30 inch sizes.
- It is non-conductive, preventing the transfer of current from a connected pipeline to the structure.
- Resilient coated pipe roller shows a low coefficient of friction with the pipe.
- This pipe roll support can withstand 400 degrees F and 300 degrees F temperatures when resilient coated.
Compatible Accessories:
- Anvil Threaded Rods: These threaded rods fit onto Anvil FIG 177's pipe roll body for replacing old, damaged or worn-out rods in a pipe roll support.
- Galvanised & Cast Iron Pipe Rolls: These pipe roll support bodies allow easy replacement of worn-out parts of Anvil FIG 177 pipe roll support.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. How to select a right-sized pipe roll support?
A.
- If an application requires supporting a bare pipe, select the size of pipe roll support directly based on the nominal pipe size.
- If the pipe requires the use of a pipe covering protection saddle, refer to the saddle's sizes for the appropriate size of the pipe roll support.
- When a covered pipe has to be supported, the covering's outer diameter should not exceed the pipe's outer diameter to support the selected roll support.
- Order oversized pipe roll support when pipes are used with insulation & protection saddles.
Q. What are the uses of diverse types of pipe supports?
A. The primary functions of pipe supports are anchoring, supporting, guiding and absorbing generated shocks on a pipe. Pipe supports are ideal for both high and low temperatures. The design of pipe support is determined based on the loading, installation and operating conditions.
