| Type: | Variable Spring Supports |
| Size: | Rod Diameter 2” / Casing 8′ long & 3 1/8” Diameter |
| Material: | Carbon Steel |
| Design: | Operating Load 31,563 lbs., Installed Load 29,000 lbs., 0.82″ Downward Movement |
| Testing: | Standard Load & Travel Tests |
PT&P designed two standard PTP-4 size 210 A-type variable spring supports for a Process Power Plant in Oklahoma. The springs are fabricated from A36 carbon steel and with a hot-dipped galvanized finish. The springs are designed to accommodate a Hydro Test Load of 34,000 with operating Load of 31,563 and installed Load of 29,000, movement of 0.82″ downward. A Standard Load and Travel test was conducted on the variables prior to shipment. The springs utilize a rod diameter of 2” and the spring casing 8′ long and 3 1/8” in diameter.

November 20, 2017
| Type: | Big Ton Spring Supports |
| Size: | 42″ x 24″ x 26 1/2″ |
| Material: | Carbon Steel |
| Design: | 94,261 lb. Load & 0.085” Movement |
| Testing: | Standard Load Tests |
PT&P custom designed big ton spring supports for a propane dehydrogenation application at a chemical plant in Texas. The components within this assembly include the spring housing, coils, name plates, pressure plate, and load indicator. While both assemblies measure 42” L x 24” W x 26-1/2” H, it was modified based on independent specifications for operating loads and movement to accommodate a load of 94,261 lb. and 0.085” of movement. This type of support is ideal for applications, such as supporting pressure vessels that combine very heavy loads with thermal expansion because of the stability they provide. The big ton was tested in the load cell to insure proper operation throughout the entire working range of the coils.

April 12, 2015
PT&P fabricated PTP-6 G-type variable spring supports for a coker replacement project in Kansas. The variables are comprised of two standard spring housing 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. They are 50″ in length, designed for an operating load of 15,000 lb. and fabricated from carbon steel with a hot-dipped galvanized finish. All variable assemblies underwent standard load and spring testing prior to shipment.
