Filbows

Filbows are loop-style pipe hangers used primarily to support and secure pipework, particularly within fire sprinkler systems. Designed as a simple one-piece hanger, they provide a reliable and adjustable method of suspending pipes from threaded rod or structural supports.

 
Commonly used in commercial and industrial installations, filbows help maintain correct pipe alignment and stability, ensuring system performance is not compromised.

Key Features

• Loop hanger design for secure pipe support 
• Simple one-piece construction for fast installation 
• Adjustable positioning during and after installation 
• Compatible with threaded rod suspension systems 
• Suitable for fire sprinkler and general pipework applications 
• Durable steel construction for long-term reliability

Product Description

Filbows are a widely used pipe support solution, designed to hold pipework securely in position while allowing for straightforward installation and adjustment. Typically formed as a loop or collar, the hanger wraps around the pipe and connects to threaded rod, creating a suspended support system.

 
They are most commonly used in fire sprinkler installations, where maintaining pipe alignment is critical to ensuring effective water distribution in the event of a fire. By keeping pipework securely in place, filbows play an important role in preserving the integrity and performance of the system.

 
The single-piece design makes installation quick and efficient, while also allowing for minor adjustments during setup. This flexibility is particularly useful on-site, where alignment and positioning may need to be fine-tuned.

 
Manufactured from steel and typically supplied in a corrosion-resistant finish such as pre-galvanised or zinc plated (depending on specification), filbows are designed for durability in both commercial and industrial environments.

 
Available in sizes from 20mm up to 250mm (non-approved), they are suitable for a wide range of pipe diameters and installation requirements.

Applications

Ideal for supporting fire sprinkler pipework, mechanical services, HVAC systems and general pipe installations where secure suspension, alignment and adjustability are required.
