Piggy Back Clamp
In today’s complex industrial environments, the ability to safely and efficiently secure secondary lines—such as cables, conduits, or small-diameter pipes—onto existing pipeline infrastructure is critical. Traditional methods often involve invasive techniques like welding or drilling, which can compromise the host pipe’s structural integrity, require significant downtime, or inflate installation costs.
What sets Half Pipe Sleeve apart is not just the product—it’s the precision with which it’s built, the standards it complies with, and the peace of mind it offers across a broad spectrum of applications. Whether you’re dealing with saltwater corrosion, fluctuating temperatures, or spatial limitations, these clamps adapt quickly and perform consistently.
Piggy Back Clamp Applications
Designed for industries that demand strength, speed, and reliability, these clamps enable the non-disruptive mounting of auxiliary lines onto main pipelines or structural frameworks. From subsea oil rigs and petrochemical plants to high-rise HVAC systems and tunnel utilities, this solution is engineered to deliver exceptional grip, vibration resistance, and corrosion protection in even the most extreme environments.
Piggyback Clamp Solutions are mechanical clamping systems used to attach secondary pipelines or cables to an existing main pipeline. This solution facilitates efficient routing of additional lines without altering or compromising the integrity of the host structure.

Installation Guidelines for Piggy Back Clamp
Steps to Follow:
- Identify and prep the mounting area.
- Place clamp saddle around the host pipe.
- Fit the secondary line into the designated groove.
- Secure using fasteners or bolts to recommended torque.
- Conduct a final check for alignment and stability.
Best Practices:
- Maintain uniform spacing.
- Use anti-seize lubricant on bolts.
- Match materials to environment (marine, underground, industrial).
- Schedule regular inspections post-installation.
