Pipe Clamp C Type

Pipe Clamp C Type

Standard ASTM A536
Surface Treatment ZP, PL

Product Introduction

  • Standard Name:  Coupling / C-Clamp

  • Common Names: Pipe Category: Heavy-Duty Grooved Clamp, C-Type Clamp, Wafer-Type Union.

  • Product Definition: Piping: Metal fittings connecting two grooved pipes (typically cast iron). Secured by tightening bolts, they utilize internal “C-type” rubber seals for sealing. Offers quick installation without welding.

Pipe Clamp C Type Key Features

  • C-shaped design: Open C-shaped structure with bolt fastening, providing uniform clamping force

    around the pipe, suitable for quick installation and removal.

  • Material and Coating: Commonly made of carbon steel, with surface treatments such as zinc plating (ZP),

    hot-dip galvanizing (HDG), or stainless steel (SS), offering different levels of corrosion resistance; often

    comes with a rubber liner (linerless option available).

  • Strength and Function: Rigid fixation, capable of bearing medium to heavy loads; often equipped with a

    base plate or nut, and vibration-damping versions with rubber shock absorbers.

  • Diverse Specifications: Diameters from DN15-DN300 (1/2"-12"), widths from 20-50mm, supporting wall

    mounting, beam clamping, or floor fixing.

  • Advantages: Simple installation, stable clamping, economical and durable, adjustable, suitable for

    various pipe support applications.

Working Principle

  • Circumferential Installation: The C-shaped clamp body surrounds the pipe, and a bolt passes through

    both ends.

  • Bolt Tightening: When the nut is tightened, the C-shaped opening contracts, generating radial clamping

    force.

  • Load Distribution: The clamping surface evenly distributes pressure, and the rubber liner (if present)

    provides shock absorption and sound insulation; the coating provides corrosion protection.

  • Fixing and Adjustment: Adjustable position to resist vibration and lateral forces; the principle involves

    frictional gripping and mechanical interlocking.

Product Applications

  • Construction Engineering: Fixing water pipes, gas pipes, or drainage pipes to walls/beams, providing

    stable support.

  • HVAC Ventilation: Installing air ducts or air conditioning pipes for quick construction.

  • Industrial Piping: Securing chemical or factory pipelines, resisting vibration.

  • Infrastructure: Fixing pipes in bridges or tunnels; galvanized versions are resistant to mild exposure.

  • General Support: Any project requiring quick C-shaped pipe clamping.
