[Technical]

The SSG standard for pipe supports/hangers has been the industry’s solution of choice  when designing , manufacturing and installing piping systems in Scandinavia since the 1970s. The standard has now been through a process of further development.

Among other things, the temperature limit of max. 200°C has been removed. The dimension range has increased, and now includes pipe supports up to and including DN 1200. SSG has also carried out the modifications that have been required to make the standard compliant with the European Pressure Equipment Directive, PED, 97/23/EC.
