2 Page AAA Technology & Specialties Co., Inc. CORROSION RESISTANT PRODUCTS TRI*GUARD DURABLE THERMOPLASTIC SUPPORTS Corrosion between pipe supports and pipe at metal to metal contact points is a common problem in the process and offshore industries. When TRI GUARD thermoplastic bars are placed under pipes, they eliminate metal to metal contact and the resultant corrosion. With TRI GUARD, water drains away from the pipe and the TRI GUARD contact point due to the TRI GUARD shape and no longer pools on the bottom side of the pipe. TRI GUARD also prevents electrical conductivity between the pipe and the pipe support member. TRI GUARD is UV resistant which translates to longer product life. TRI GUARD (standard either black or white) can be used at operating temperatures up to 80 F (8 C) and under all diameter pipes. For higher temperature applications, TRI GUARD-AM can be used at operating temperatures up to 340 F (7 C) and TRI GUARD-PE can be used at operating temperatures up to 48 F (50 C). For pipe supports requiring lateral restraint (i.e. a guide), please see our TRI BOLT product line of coated U-bolts. (in) Rod Dia. (in) Bar "L" (in) Hole C-C "B" (in) Bar Hole Dia.

3 Page 3 CORROSION RESISTANT PRODUCTS TRI*GUARD SELECTION CRITERIA PIPE DIAMETER - The diameter of the TRI GUARD thermoplastic bars is based upon the diameter of the pipe and the diameter of the standard u-bolts available for the specific pipe diameter. For /, 3/4 and pipe diameters, u-bolts are manufactured in /4 rod diameter as well as 3/8 rod diameter. For the pipe diameter, the u-bolt rod diameter and the TRI*GUARD bar diameter relationship, please see the table below: / 3/4 Rod Dia. Nom. /4 /4 /4 3/8 TRI GUARD Dia. 3/4 3/4 3/4 Nom Rod Dia. / 3/4 /4 / 3/8 3/8 / 3 3 / 3/8 3/8 3/8 / / / TRI GUARD Dia. / / / / / / / / / / / 5/8 5/ /4 7/8 7/8 7/8 / / / / / From the tables above, identify the TRI GUARD bar diameter that will be provided. Then calculate the load to be carried by the TRI GUARD bar at this particular location and compare the load with the allowable load per bar below: LOAD LIMITATIONS - TRI GUARD bar load capacity is limited as follows: 3/4 Dia. - 4,000 Lbs. (84 Kg. or 7.79 kn), Dia. - 8,000 Lbs. (368 Kg. or kn), / Dia. - 0,000 Lbs. (4535 Kg. or kn), Dia. -,500 Lbs. (5669 Kg. or 55.6 kn). Please be aware that loads may be from the weight of the piping, valves and flanges and may also be from thermal growth and from occasional loads such as wave, earthquake or wind loads, etc. Consult your piping stress engineer for guidance or contact PipingSolutions, Inc. (AAA Technology s sister company) for assistance in calculating pipe support loads In the event that the load to be carried at any location exceeds these loads per TRI GUARD bar load capacity, then use multiple TRI GUARD bars at the specific location until the number of bars times the capacity for one bar exceeds the load to be carried. In the event that multiple bars are required, be certain to verify that the bars will fit on top of the support member and they must also be the same size bars. For pipe supports requiring lateral restraint (i.e. a guide), please see our TRI BOLT product line of coated U-bolts. If the lateral loads are larger than can be resisted by a, contact AAA Technology for other guide options. TEMPERATURE - TRI GUARD (standard either black or white) can be used at operating temperatures up to 80 F (8 C) and under pipes of virtually all diameters. For higher temperature applications, TRI GUARD-AM can be used at operating temperatures up to 340 F (7 C) and TRI GUARD-PE can be used at operating temperatures up to 48 F (50 C). For TRI GUARD and TRI BOLT applications, the polyshrink coating that is used to coat the s to make them TRI-BOLTs can only be used at operating temperatures up to 30 F (0 C). TRI*GUARD Standard (White) Maximum Operating Temperature:80⁰F (8⁰C) TRI*GUARD Standard (Black) (UV) Maximum Operating Temperature:80⁰F (8⁰C) TRI*GUARD-AM (Amber) Maximum Operating Temperature:340⁰F (7⁰C) TRI*GUARD-PE (PEEK) Maximum Operating Temperature:48⁰F (50⁰C) TRI BOLT FINISH - Carbon steel s can be coated with the following finish: Hot Dip Galvanized, Xylan Blue, Xylan Black, Polyurea or Sermagard. Alternatively, the s can be manufactured of 304 SS, 36 SS or another appropriate alloy. TRI GUARD with Base Plate - TRI GUARD with a Base Plate bonded to the bottom of the TRI GUARD eliminates the necessity of installing a base plate or epoxying the TRI GUARD to the structural steel beneath it. The base plates are larger in width and length than the TRI GUARD bar and come with the holes drilled and the TRI GUARD bars epoxied to the steel. Steel can be ordered in the following finishes: Plain, Hot Dip Galvanized, Painted, Xylan Blue, Xylan Black, Polyurea or Sermagard.

CORROSION RESISTANT PRODUCTS TRI*BOLT with TRI*COAT U-BOLTS FOR SERVICE IN CORROSIVE ENVIRONMENTS TRI BOLT corrosion resistant restraints prevent the pipe from moving upwards as well as laterally. When it is necessary to limit lateral movement of a pipe, TRI BOLT is the right selection for loads that are not excessive. For higher lateral load capacities, use pairs of TRI BOLTs as shown in the illustration at the bottom of this page. The TRI COAT protective layer is bonded to the U-bolt surface thermally. The TRI COAT protective layer prevents electrical conductivity between the pipe and the u-bolt member. TRI COAT is UV resistant which translates to longer product life. TRI BOLTs can be used at operating temperatures up to 30 F (0 C). and can be provided in carbon steel with a HDG finish, 304 SS or 36 SS. Pipe Dia.

5 Page 5 CORROSION RESISTANT PRODUCTS TRI*CLIP ISOLATORS ISOLATES PIPES FROM CLAMPS, CRADLES & SADDLES As previously stated, corrosion between pipe supports and pipe commonly occurs at metal to metal contact points in the process and offshore industries. TRI CLIP Isolators, made of thermoplastic bars just like the TRI GUARD bars, clip on pipe clamps, cradles and saddles to prevent metal to metal contact between the pipe and the pipe clamp, cradle or saddle. TRI CLIP Isolators are bonded to the pipe clamp, cradle or saddle member with sided tape. AAA Technology supplies the TRI*CLIP isolators along with the pipe clamps, cradles and saddles already bonded to the steel members. Alternatively, the TRI*CLIP Isolators can be supplied in bags tied to each pipe clamp, cradle or saddle for field installation at a later time. With TRI CLIP Isolator bars like with the TRI GUARD bars, water drains away from the pipe and the TRI CLIP contact point due to the TRI CLIP cylindrical shape. Moisture will no longer collect at contact points between the pipe and the support. TRI CLIP Isolators also prevent electrical conductivity between the pipe and the pipe support member. TRI CLIP Isolators can be used at operating temperatures up to 80 F (8 C) and on clamps, cradles and saddles for virtually all pipe and duct diameters. TRI CLIP Isolators are also available UV resistant material which translates to longer product life. For higher temperature applications, TRI CLIP Isolators are available in the following options: Amber TRI*GUARD-AM for temperatures to 340 ⁰F PEEK TRI*GUARD-PE for temperatures to 48 ⁰F TRI CLIP Isolator bars are manufactured by AAA Technology from / diameter TRI GUARD bars. They are cut and machined to fit the clamp dimensions that our customer provides to us for each application.
