Abstract:

A hanger and support system for suspending a tubular body from an overhead support is disclosed. The support takes the form of a thick-walled plastic pipe, suitably PVC, with two end caps adhesively joined thereto. An upper end cap is secured to an anchor in the overhead support by means of a bolt extending through a hole in the closed cap end and is adhesively joined to a pipe end. A second end cap at the other pipe end likewise is provided with a downwardly extending bolt arranged for attachment to a hanger and that second end cap is adhesively joined to the lower pipe end. The hanger is in the form of a generally circular band having overlapping superposed ends with a hole drilled therethrough for attachment to the downwardly extending bolt.
