ABSTRACT:
A hanger apparatus for suspending an upright inner pipe from an outer pipe including a hanger body carried by the outer pipe, a hanger mandrel carried by the inner pipe, and a split locking ring carried in a recess in the hanger mandrel, the hanger body having a groove for receiving a rib on the locking ring and the hanger mandrel having a load-bearing shoulder received on a corresponding shoulder on the locking ring. The locking ring has a thick main body portion and a thin, flexible skirt depending therefrom. A rib on the hanger mandrel has an upwardly facing lifting surface for contacting a downwardly facing lifting surface formed as an upper wall in a transverse groove in the locking ring main body portion to provide a positive engagement during retrieval of the inner pipe. A guard rib below the lifting rib is releasably coupled to the hanger mandrel so the locking ring can be slipped into the mandrel with a minimum of distortion.
