    This document provides maximum guide spacing recommendations in meters for carbon steel and stainless steel pipes of different nominal pipe sizes (NPS) ranging from 2 inches to 24 inches in either vertical or horizontal configurations. The table shows that smaller diameter pipes can have greater maximum spacing between guides, while larger diameter pipes require closer guide spacing, with horizontal runs allowed to have greater spacing than vertical runs due to gravity loads. Consideration must also be given to potential local stress increases when locating guides.

    CARBON STEEL & STAINLESS STEEL GUIDE SPACING

    CARBON STEEL & STAINLESS STEEL GUIDE SPACING:

    MAXIMUM GUIDE SPACING (M) PIPE SIZE NPS 2" 3" 4" 6" 8" 10" 12" 14" 16" 18" 20" 24" VERTICAL LINES 7.3 8.2 8.8 10.1 11.3 12.5 13.7 14.3 15.3 16.2 17.1 18.3 HORZINTAL LINES 6 12 12 12 18 18 18 18 24 24 24 24

    Notes: 1. The above table is applicable to straight pipe runs 2. In locating guide full consideration must be given to the dangers of local increase in loads and stress within pipe or equipment.
