Wear pads

Wear pads, also known as wear plates or pipe saddles, protect pipelines from wear and damage caused by friction or movement. They are installed at contact points where pipes apply pressure to supports or other surfaces. These pads prevent direct metal-to-metal contact, reducing corrosion and material fatigue. They extend the life of piping systems and minimize maintenance costs. Wear pads provide a cost-effective solution for maintaining structural integrity in industrial applications.

Specifications

  • Provides a secure and reliable seal.
  • Causes no damage to adjacent pipes and the pipe plate, thanks to controlled installation force.
  • Is reliable during the life of the heat exchanger under the most severe conditions.

  • Has dimensions and codes based on the metric system.
  • Has lower installation costs compared to welded, explosive or other mechanical plugs.
