Based on Mss Table 3 & 4

* Many codes require pipe hangers to be spaced every 10 ft. regardless of
size. Check local codes.
Spacing and capacities are based on water filled pipe. Closer hanger spacing
may be required where additional valves and fittings increase the load.

Based on ASTM A53-86

1 Cubic Ft. of water weighs 62.41 lbs.

1 gallon (U.S.) weighs 8.335 lbs.
