But our engineers are not only expert designers of pipe supports
and systems; they epitomize our “engineering is a people business”
approach. Our company philosophy is focused on you, our
customer, and your project. After all, your success is our success
and we work very hard to guarantee both.
Maverick engineers and inspectors are internationally recognized for expertise in composite
materials for corrosive applications. With over 150 years of combined FRP engineering
experience, the Maverick team provides

+941-721-1800 or see us at www.maverickappliedscience.com. We look forward to putting our
expertise to work for you.
1) The following catalog support configurations are designed for the listed allowable loads. If actual load
requirements differ from the defined allowable loads, configurations and materials can be altered to
accommodate the load requirements. The defined vertical loads are downward in direction unless
otherwise noted. Please specify all load requirements with placement of order.
2) The defined support loads and designs are based on typical FRP and plastic pipe/duct system
arrangements, design parameters and spans between supports. Support designs and configurations can
be altered to accommodate specific project needs.
3) Allowable loads for pipe supports are based on schedule max spans of 40 CPVC pipe at 73°F.
4) All supports are designed to maximize load distribution and to avoid point loading of the pipe at the
support.
5) Larger diameter supports up to 48” in diameter are custom engineered to meet specific load and
functionality requirements. Expected loads and movements are required to engineer and optimize support
configuration and design. Where large diameter supports are used without slide bearings allowing steel
on steel contact, supports will need to be evaluated for axial loads due to increased frictional loading.
6) Structural and supplementary steel structures are assumed to be near rigid. The length of the support
should be centered on the supporting structures to limit the torsional loading of the steel. Flexibility in
structural steel may induce unanticipated loads into the pipe/duct.
7) The width of the supporting structural steel should be considered for support bearing. Structural or
supplementary steel should provide a bearing surface of at least 50% of the support base length. If this is
not possible, larger or thicker support base plates or stiffeners may be required. If additional installation
plates or larger support base plates are needed, please specify size (length, width and thickness) with
placement of order.
8) Pipe supports are available in sizes up to 12” in diameter. Larger sizes up to 48” are available and are
designed to suit the project requirements.
9) All pipe sizes are considered nominal. These support are designed and for standard NPS pipe O.D.
The outer diameter (O.D.) may vary on some thermal plastic pipe depending on the pipe material. The
pipe material must be specified with placement of order.
10) Support dimensions are based on typical wall thicknesses and may vary depending on the actual
O.D. and load requirements (See Note 3).
11) Flange support dimensions for sizes up to 24” diameter pipe are based on ANSI B16.5 CL150 flange
drilling and may vary depending on the actual drilling class and load requirements.
12) Flange support dimensions for sizes above 24” diameter pipe are based on ASME B16.47 Series A
CL150 flange drilling and may vary depending on the actual drilling class and load requirements.
13) The standard material for Maverick supports is carbon steel. Other materials such as, stainless steel
and other alloys are available upon request.
15) All saddle and clamp type supports include cushioning material to assure best fit and to minimize
exterior pipe wear.
16) Supports that require attachment to a structure are designed for welded installations. If bolted
installations are preferred, please specify details with placement of order.
17) Sizing of field welds for supports, clips, brackets, lugs, etc. to supporting structures are to be
determined by others.
18) Guide clips provided with the non-slide bearing type guide supports are designed to be field welded to
the supporting structure. Guide clips for bolted installations to the supporting structure are available.
Please specify the preferred attachment method with placement of order.
19) The standard horizontal gap for guide and linestop supports is 1/8” with factory installed clips.
Supports can be adjusted for specific displacements as required for project needs. Please specify with
placement of order.
20) The upwards vertical gap for our guide and linestop style supports is ±1/8” with factory installed clips..
The vertical gaps of supports with slide bearings may vary depending on the style of clip required. Where
uplift or overturning is a concern, please provide vertical limit requirements or overturning loads at
placement of order and supports can be adjusted to accommodate the specified limits and loads.
21) Slide bearings are recommended for supports with moderate to severe displacements and loads on
systems having long straight runs. Slide bearings are recommended for piping systems above 12”
diameter where temperature gradients from ambient are greater than 60°F may occur. The incorporation
of slide bearings is to minimize loads transferred to the supporting structure.
22) If pipe/duct requires insulation, slots can be incorporated into the support design to accommodate
insulation banding. Please specify insulation thickness and details at placement of order.
23) Supplementary steel supporting structures are not included with Maverick supports. Supplementary
supporting structures can be provided upon request.
24) All materials such as pipe, duct, flanges and shear collars are not included with Maverick supports.
This material should be sourced from the piping manufacturer.
25) Shield banding and buckles are not included with Maverick supports. Banding and buckles can be
provided upon request. Material will be provided in bulk form.
26) Hanger hardware to suspend a support from a structure above is not included with Maverick
supports. Hanging hardware can be provided upon request.
