Installation Procedure

1. Ensure proper pipe supports are installed at appropriate intervals to prevent sagging and stress concentration. 2. Prepare pipe ends for welding or threading, ensuring they are clean, free from mill scale, and accurately beveled if required. 3. Carefully align the pipe with mating components, maintaining straightness and preventing strain on the system before final joining.
