BW Wall Clips
for steel tube
BW wall clips are designed to support horizontal pipework with nominal bores from 1/2in up to and including 2in. The clip comprises two sections, the lower section carrying the mounting bracket which can be fixed to the wall by two No. 12 woodscrews. The upper section of the clip can be moved to one side by slackening the locking screw to enable the pipe to be placed in the bottom section of the clip. With the pipe in situ, refit the upper section of the clip and tighten the locking screw.

* Max. load with M6 threaded rod. The yield stress of Flamco rail material is at least 240 N/mm2. Note 1: Based on a bending stress of 140 N/mm2. Note 2: For the maximum point loadings the various types of rail must only be used subject to the maximum bending moment (Mb max.). In practice this means that these maximum point loadings may only occur close to the rail fixing points. Rail selection The above data can be used to make the necessary strength calculations. R3 Important It is important to ensure that the load is evenly distributed over the successive suspension points of a pipe. (Every rail is then loaded equally and evenly). Careless adjustment can give rise to large differences in the loads on the rails. When Flamco rail is suspended using Flamco rail support nuts, Flamco hammerhead nuts and Flamco washers as shown in the sketch alongside, the point-loading value in the above table may be adhered to. When using R4 rail, Flamco SP rail clamps should be used instead of Flamco rail washers. When using R6 rail, Flamco SP SR rail clamps should be used instead of Flamco rail washers.

Springhangers
TYPE SHSP/S and SHWP/D
The BOSS SPRINGHANGER has been produced to alleviate vibration in suspended systems and can be used in the support of fans, pumps, pipework etc. The BOSS SPRINGHANGER comprises a colour-coded spring fitted with a restraining collar at each end. The collar at the bottom is welded to the inside of a rectangular steel housing. Other types are available to suit alternative applications, please consult your local BSS (UK) branch for details. All type SHSP/S units are supplied complete with a ball hanger which allows for 20 deflection in any direction of suspended equipment. An angular steel section is welded to the top of the housing to allow for connection access. All mild steel parts are supplied in corrosion-resistant finish for external use. The BOSS SPRINGHANGER standard range is designed to cover loads from 13.1kg to 800kg with a maximum spring compression of 40mm. The average overload is 25%. There is no preloading of units.

F1
The equivalent load F, is determined as follows: F1 = correction factor x F Using the equivalent load F1, graph A may now be used for selecting the rail. The end dimensions 1/4 and 1/8 must not be chosen larger.
EXAMPLE
Graph B Two 5in N.B. BS 1387 Heavy pipes have to be fitted to a rail and have a centre distance of 20cm between pipes. The distance between the respective rails is 250cm. What type of Flamco rail should be used.
SOLUTION
The weight of the pipe is (see table on page 59) 31.34kg/m, which means 2.5m x 31.34 kg/m = 78.35 kg = 768.61N (1kg = 9.81N) Table 1 shows how to determine the equivalent load, for 2 pipes spaced as shown the correlation factor F1 = 1 x F should be used F1 = 1 x 768.61M = 768.61N

3. When the branch system is completely piped-up, remove the pin cover on the T-plus and strike the pin a clean, sharp, square blow with a hammer. This will open the supply to the branch pipework
It is essential that the branch outlet does not contain any liquid prior to striking the firing pin. Isolated valves should be fitted if necessary.

Dished Face
Principle of Operation A piston, which locates at right angles to the supply pipe when the T-plus is fitted in position, is vertically bored to the nominal diameter of the branch size. The front face of the piston is dished to act as a chip-stream and also to provide a cutting edge. An O ring and star washer arrangement is fitted adjacent to the rear face. In operation, when the firing pin is struck, the charge sets up a gas pressure which drives the piston forward. The cutting edge shears the pipe and the dished face carries the pipe swarf clear of the hole and contains it against the body wall. When the piston has reached its full travel, the vertical bore aligns with the hole cut in the pipe to allow free flow from the supply line to the branch pipework. The star washer arrangement engages a slot in the piston cylinder to lock the piston in the open position. (On earlier models a circlip was fitted in place of the star washer.) NOTE: The Flamco T-Plus branch connections must not be used on pipelines carrying fuel or other inflammable media, or activated in fire hazard areas. Flamco T-plus are not suitable for use on sprinkler systems.
Orifice size in supply pipe is not identical to nominal bore of branch pipe
