1 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.

2 CL Vibration Clamps (for general purpose applications) Field-proven designs for compressors, pumps and related piping systems Vibration, Dynamics & Noise (formerly BETA Machinery Analysis) Products to control vibration on piping and machine systems Advantages Rugged construction for vibration application 3X bolt stretch over conventional clamps Longer bolts and sleeves reduce chance of vibration loosening Carbon steel construction Design based on decades of troubleshooting experience Used successfully in numerous demanding applications Oversized to accommodate specified clamp liners and wear pads Custom finishes and electroplated coating options readily available Primed for corrosion protection during transport Vibration Clamps (general purpose) Other Products .
