Anvil 0500340088 Insulation Protection Shield trap

Insulation Protection Shield for Pipe Runs

The Anvil 0500340088 is a carbon steel shield designed to protect pipe insulation from damage at support points. It accommodates pipe sizes from 1 1/2 to 4 inches and insulation thickness of 1 to 2 inches. The shield measures 12 inches in length with an insulation outside diameter of 6 41/64 inches. It is manufactured from 16 gauge galvanized material for durability.

Suited for Standard Insulated Pipe Supports

This shield suits installers supporting insulated pipe runs where the insulation outer diameter matches 6 41/64 inches and thickness falls between 1 and 2 inches. It meets A-A-1192A Type 40, WW-H-171-E Type 41, ANSI/MSS SP-69 and MSS SP-5 Type 40 standards. Installers working with pipe sizes outside the 1 1/2 to 4 inch range or insulation dimensions beyond the stated limits should look at other options. Projects requiring non-galvanized finishes or different gauge thicknesses will need alternative components.

16 Gauge Galvanized Carbon Steel Construction

The defining specification is the 16 gauge galvanized carbon steel construction which determines load capacity and corrosion resistance at the support point. This material thickness and coating combination satisfies the referenced MSS and ANSI standards for Type 40 and Type 41 shields. Verifying that the pipe size, insulation thickness and outer diameter align with the 1 1/2 to 4 inch, 1 to 2 inch and 6 41/64 inch parameters confirms this is the correct part.
