“FRP Pipe Supports – Don’t Get Conned” is the topic of the latest video from Maverick Applied Science, Inc.’s President, Jeff Eisenman.
We are continuing with our video series by sharing additional important insights regarding nonmetallic equipment. Pipe supports are essential to the reliable performance of every piping system. Do you know what to ask for and what to expect from your pipe supports for your nonmetallic piping? Don’t get conned!
For many process piping systems, pipe supports are an afterthought. After a lot of effort is put into the piping materials and system arrangement for routing, access and flow characteristics, the pipe supports don’t get a lot of attention in too many cases. There are common rules for pipe supports for steel pipe. All too often those same rules are being applied for FRP piping as well. This approach can lead to less than reliable results for FRP and thermoplastics systems.
Here’s a sobering fact–Insufficient engineering and poor pipe supports account for more than half of the FRP piping failures experienced in process plants.
Don’t fall into that “Same Ole Trap!”” We want you to know what to ask for and what to expect!
Watch the video for more details and then give us a call to discuss your FRP project. We look forward to supporting your needs.
In recognition that the Fiberglass Reinforced Plastics (FRP) industry is constantly evolving, Jeff Eisenman, President of Maverick Applied Science, commissioned a new web series that focuses on education and highlights key changes to FRP solutions.
The web series being amassed is with the intention of making the evolution of FRP more inviting and understandable. Ultimately, we at Maverick Applied Science would like to see the knowledge of FRP become more accessible to far more companies and throughout more industries in order for them to embrace the benefits of FRP and its continued evolution.
We know you will find this material beneficial, and we will continue to add to our library here on our site for you to consume.
