Transair® Aluminum Pipe Quick Assembly Brackets
Installation Instructions 1"(25mm) – 1-1/2"(40mm)

< Back to Previous Page

Installation Guidelines
1. Transair pipe and hoses: Transair pipe should be protected from mechanical impact, particularly if exposed to collision with fork-lift trucks or when sited in an environment with moving overhead loads. Similarly, rotation of the pipe and pipe supports should be avoided. Transair pipe must not be welded.

2. Expansion and contraction: Expansion and contraction of the system should be calculated prior to installation. The system designer and installer should calculate the elongation or retraction of each Transair line according to the recommendations in this installation guide.

3. Situation to avoid: Installation within a solid mass (concrete, foam, etc.), the hanging of any external equipment to Transair pipe, the use of Transair for grounding or as a support for electrical equipment, and exposure to chemicals that are incompatible.

4. When assembling Transair connectors, do not interchange the nuts with different Transair bodies due to our calibration process.

Procedure
1. Mark the pipe at the desired position for the bracket, using the same locator mark when several take-off points need to be aligned uniformly. Place the drilling jig (ref. 6698 01 03) in a vice or on the floor. To drill a hole in 1 1/2" pipe, loosen the retaining bolt in the jig by turning the knob and place the pipe in the jig. The locator mark on the pipe should be aligned with the appropriate guide marks on the side of the jig. Two guide lines on either side of the jig provide a rapid indication of whether the pipe is correctly positioned (the guide lines match the locator marks on the pipe). Close the jig, tighten the bolt and drill a hole using the appropriate drilling tool:
■ Ø 1": Ø 1/2" hole > ref. 6698 02 02 drilling tool
■ Ø 1 1/2": Ø 1" hole > ref. 6698 02 01 drilling tool
Recommended rotation speed: 650 rpm
Note: drill without lubrication.
2. Release the pipe, remove any chips and deburr the circular hole. Repeat the operation for the number of brackets that you wish to fit.
3. Position the quick assembly bracket using its location pin
4. Tighten the screw

Note: The jig’s second drilling guide corresponds to the minimum distance for fitting two adjacent brackets.
