ABSTRACT:
A pipe support system is disclosed having one or more members interposed between a pipe support, which may be a pipe hanger strap or a support cradle, and a pipe such that the pipe is directly supported by, and spaced from, the support. The generally "U" shaped members each have a base portion, a pair of leg portions extending from the base portion and a flange portion extending from the distal end of each of the leg portions. The members are oriented such that the base portion bears against the support, while the flange portions bear against an outer surface of the pipe. External pipe insulating material may pass through the "U" shaped members between the leg portions and between the base portion and the pipe surface. The members serve to directly support the pipe from the support without compressing the insulation layer in any fashion. The "U" shaped members may be attached to semi-cylindrical cover members which extend on either side of a hanger support. The "U" shaped members may also be utilized to support a pipe upon a pipe cradle or the like.
