Strapping pipe clips

[flappy8]

Hi all,

I've seen some metal strapping which is sometimes used to hold soil/other pipes in position in voids etc. Its flexible and almost looks like bike chain but allows you to make your own constructions/custom brackets. Anyone know what it's really called or where to get it? Done some googling but no luck!

You're better off using the correct brackets and clips where you can.

Don't use it on flues!

Do you mean all-round band?

Brilliant stuff, like gripfill, duct-tape and LS-X. You know its a bodge, but you always have it on the van!

Ray, as a director I find it amazing that you know so much about the nuts and bolts plus technical side of the trade.
I take my hat off to you Sir.

I would have thought that a deep understanding of all-round band, gripfill, duct-tape and LS-X put me firmly in the "cowboy" camp! But thanks for the kind words anyway.

That's exactly what I was thinking of - just couldn't find the right name - seems obvious now!
+1 for using correct clips where you can - however as everyone knows that's not always possible!

A better product might be M10 rubber lined brackets with M10 rod cut to the desired length and fixed to the wall with a backplate.

Pipe brackets where possible bit likes of underneath floors ., joists i always use clipstrap banding but surface pipes always brackets..dont think ive ever used the old duck tape yet. But never say never...

Unlined 92 - 103mm clips with 10mm stud and malleable back plate every day.

Good old builders banding is great for lots of situations. Not for flues tho and not really for soil pipes

AW why not waste pipes ?

The clipstrap i carry in the van certainly wouldnt snap as you struggle to cut with snips sometimes ,

 

[gslplumbers]

Euro-clips, studding cut to length, nuts 'n feet are good. Lots of other ways to susped from rsj's, steel framed buildings etc. but sometimes there is a need for strapping.
