Support Hangers: Adjustment Range ±50-150 mm

Component Specifications

Definition

Support hangers are engineered structural elements designed to suspend ductwork systems from building structures or equipment frames. They provide vertical and lateral support to maintain duct alignment, prevent sagging, and distribute mechanical loads including weight, thermal expansion, vibration, and pressure fluctuations. These components are critical for system integrity, safety, and operational efficiency in HVAC, exhaust, and process ventilation applications.

Working Principle

Support hangers function by transferring the gravitational and dynamic loads of ductwork to stable structural points through tension, compression, or a combination of both. They incorporate adjustable features to accommodate installation tolerances and thermal movement, while isolation elements may dampen vibrations to prevent noise transmission and fatigue failure.

Materials

Typically constructed from carbon steel (ASTM A36/A500), stainless steel (304/316 grades for corrosive environments), or aluminum alloys. Components may include galvanized, powder-coated, or plated finishes for corrosion resistance. Fasteners are usually grade 5 or 8 steel bolts with appropriate washers and nuts.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I calculate the required load capacity for support hangers?

Calculate total duct weight including insulation, contents, and safety factors (typically 1.5-2.0). Consider dynamic loads from pressure, thermal expansion, and seismic requirements per ASHRAE and SMACNA guidelines.

What maintenance is required for support hangers?

Regular visual inspections for corrosion, loose fasteners, or deformation. Check isolation elements for degradation. Lubricate adjustment mechanisms annually. Replace components showing significant wear or corrosion.
