Disc-Spring-and-In-Application

These springs are the solution for satisfying excessive nozzle loads for load sensitive equipment, such as pumps, compressors, turbines, blowers, heat exchangers, pressure vessels and storage tanks. In addition, the entire spring support can be made from corrosion resistant stainless steels or other suitable alloys making it ideal for combating aggressive environments like seawater, marine air and harsh chemicals.

G-Type Variable Spring Supports Designed for a Paper Manufacturing Plant

PT&P designed G-Type variable spring supports for a paper manufacturing plant in Minnesota. The variables are comprised of two standard spring housing coil subassemblies joined together with an intermediate bridge assembly. The bridge assembly is customized to match existing site conditions which allows for use in applications with limited space or interferences. The variables are fabricated from carbon steel with a hot-dipped galvanized finish. The assemblies were designed for a total operating load of 1,348 lb. with an upward design travel of 0.8013″. Each assembly underwent a standard load test prior to shipment.

U-Type Constant Spring Supports Designed to Support Ducts in an Acid Plant

U-Type constant spring supports were designed to support ducts in an acid plant. The constants are fabricated from carbon steel, galvanized and painted for extra protection against corrosion. The U-type constants are designed to support piping from below. The base plate is 25-7/8″ wide and bolted directly to the top of the steel or floor. The assemblies measure 84″ in length and 22-1/2″ in height. They only have vertical movement subjected by 6-1/2″ total upwards travel and are capable of supporting a 13,489 lb. load. The constants underwent standard spring testing prior to shipment.
