Available in all insulation thicknesses.

The load ratings represent average values obtained in accordance with accepted
methods and are subject to normal manufacturing variations. Dimensions and ratings
are subject to change without notice.

a) To develop maximum load rating, width of support surface should be at least 1/2 of dimension “A” in Table II.

b) To develop maximum load rating, use band, ring or clevis hanger with manufacturer’s load rating equal to or greater than values shown in Table I.

c) To obtain load ratings for operating temperatures of 500° F and higher, multiply load rating by factor “F” in Table III.

Installation Guide

Installation Model A1000 - A4000 & A9000

Model A1000 – A4000 & A9000

1. Position the bottom half of the insulated hanger shield (insulating structural material, sheet metal jacket and load plate where applicable) on the pipe at the applicable support location as shown.

2. Hold the top half of the shield firmly. Open the overlapping sheet metal jacket and gently slide into position the top half of the insulated shield over the bottom half shield as shown.

Installation Model A5000 - A8400

Model A5000 – A8400

1. When used on a flat surface, position shield so that it is centered on the structural steel.

2. When used with a clevis hanger, position shield symmetrically.

3. When models include heat trace groves, the number and location may vary. Check with design drawings for exact number and location. Ensure that the heat tracing cable is properly positioned inside the grove of the shield.
