Piping vibration is a major industry issue causing fatigue failures in process piping,
drain lines, ESD lines, and other connections. Wood Group’s pipe clamps are
designed to withstand vibration and extend the life of your asset.
Based on decades of troubleshooting vibration problems, Wood Group VDN
(formerly BETA Machinery Analysis) developed its own range of clamps for
vibratory service. These clamps have been used successfully in numerous
demanding compressor and pumping applications.
To prevent loosening, Wood Group’s clamps have longer bolts and sleeves,
increasing bolt stretch for a given preload by 3X over conventional clamps. Wood
Group provides certified Mill Test Reports (MTRs) and Quality Assurance (QA)
documentation on all metal materials, liners, and wear pads.
Vibration Clamps
(for standard vibration applications)
Field-proven designs for compressors, pumps and
related piping systems
Vibration, Dynamics & Noise
(formerly BETA Machinery Analysis)
