Whats the best way to clip 28 mm pipe and allow for big laggin

[TOP TAP]

Need to run two 28 s in a cold garage and support them on clips from a bison ceiling then lag with the big laggin . Whats the best way ? plastic clips wont allow for the size of the laggin so is it just best to add a copper pipe spacer on the screw or is there a better way ?

munson rings

Love it, some screwed rod too? possibly a backplate? takes me back years

 

[lame plumber]

properly and using the above mentioned munsen rings and back plates

 

[acecharly]

onion rings ....oh no there good for holding up appetite before dinner

If you do use munsons make sure you use brass or you could get some contamination. Could use rubber lined clips

 

[Whyme]

for me back plates, nuts, 10mm rod and rubber lined clips. sorted

 

[IDCHAPPY]

Man, i miss site life... I'd love a week just flinging in pipe on a building site again

 

[acecharly]

To be honest if it was just a little job id go with the op's idea of a stub of copper unless I had some rod an m10's, plates and the like bit of a riggmerole for a couple of clips. Now if you was fitting out a hospital or a 10 storey office block . I mean we could also advise a Makita chop saw lol

Ah, the fun of drilling bisons with water still in the tubes.....
Fire nails into them?

very hard cast in situ concrete beams with steel reinforcement ,proper bisons are very hard to drill,they eat sds bits

 

[acecharly]

Ahh rite with you now. I did some concrete tanks on a water treatment site and we had to put brackets up for sparge pipes and in the end we had to use hilti diamond drills with the base that sucks if you've seen them.

 

[Ermintrude]

Into the hollow bits or the blocks if block n beam

 

[stevetheplumber]

i assume you mean a block and beam ceiling just drill into the blocks rather than the beams red heads studding and brass rings you could hang them one above the other with double clips saves on fixings or use plastic clips and spacers

Use talon clips, they make stackable spacers, use as many as you need and longer screws.

Or cut 15mm copper stubs and use as spacers.

I remember playing connect 4 trying to get a decent hole in the things arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgghghhhhh

Thanks lads , custard is loaded , and just likes everything to be super neat , so will use the munson rings and 10mm stud . then cover it all in laggin , job done.

 

[Whyme]

You don't have to spend a fortune equipping with a length of 10mm rod, nuts and a assortment of rubber lined clips. you may never need them again but you'll be future proofed for chunky lagging.

 

[Ermintrude]

We now use unlined 104 to 114mm clips for flue clips. £3. Clip stud and malleable plate

 

[albatross]

Or lag the pipe then fix to wall with big clips like 63mm downpipe clips or similar.

 

[Chalked]

Flamco every time.

 

[SimonG]

Lag it and strap band it securely. Or munsen rings as said.

 

[TBServices]

Only issue with that is it's more difficult to access later on if you need to tee off or modify

you may find them in northern america!!!lol

Although there are many ways to to do a job, using munson rings rather than plastic clips will make it look like a 'proper job'. You may only need a back plate depending on how thick you lagging is, 10mm male back plates make the pipe stand off from the wall quite a bit.

 

[kirkgas]

From BES, male back plate and extension if required
