Polypropylene Sleeve Design
The Dixon 13PS-400 is a polypropylene sleeve designed for compatible Tube Hex Hanger assemblies. It fits around the supported tubing within the hanger and provides a nonmetallic interface between the sanitary tube and surrounding hanger hardware.
The replaceable sleeve configuration allows the sleeve to be inspected separately from compatible hanger hardware during maintenance. Verify the required tube size and hanger configuration before selecting a replacement sleeve.
Polypropylene Construction
The 13PS-400 is manufactured from polypropylene for use as the sleeve component within a compatible Dixon Tube Hex Hanger assembly. The nonmetallic construction provides a contact surface between the supported tubing and surrounding hanger hardware.
Material suitability should be evaluated against the process environment, operating temperature, cleaning procedures, and conditions of the complete sanitary piping installation.
4 in Size Configuration
This 13PS-400 configuration is sized for a 4 in application. Dixon offers Tube Hex Hanger Sleeves in multiple sizes and material configurations, so the sleeve part number and nominal size should be matched carefully to the intended hanger assembly.
Correct sizing helps ensure that the sleeve seats properly inside the compatible hanger and surrounds the intended tubing. Do not substitute another sleeve size simply because the hanger components appear similar.
Sanitary Tube Support Applications
The Dixon 13PS-400 is intended for use as part of a compatible sanitary Tube Hex Hanger assembly. The polypropylene sleeve provides a nonmetallic contact surface around the tubing while the surrounding hanger hardware provides mechanical support.
Proper tube support can help maintain piping alignment and positioning at designated support points. Hanger compatibility, tube size, process conditions, support spacing, and installation requirements should all be considered before use.
Installation & Selection Considerations
- Verify part number 13PS-400.
- Confirm the required 4 in size.
- Inspect the sleeve before installation.
- Verify polypropylene is suitable for the application.
- Confirm compatibility with the Dixon Tube Hex Hanger.
Our fitting specialists can help review your Dixon part number, sleeve size, Tube Hex Hanger compatibility, polypropylene material, sanitary piping application, and installation requirements before you order.
