Pipe Guides

By restricting lateral pipe movement while allowing movement along the pipe’s axis, DME Incorporated guides ensure positive alignment. Used in conjunction with pipe loops, bellows joints and slip joints, DME Incorporated guides protect the integrity of the pipe for proper operation.

  • All guides are constructed of carbon-steel and coated with shop primer for protection.
  • Spider-housing design ensures positive pipe alignment, protecting both pipe and expansion devices.
  • Bolted, split-housing construction allows easy assembly.
  • Axial movement specified to your needs.
  • Orders shipped unassembled for fast field installation.
  • Pre-insulated models reduce time and labor on the job.

Standard Series Pipe Guides Ordering Chart

To order a DME Incorporated standard series pipe guide, you need to know pipe size, insulation thickness and axial movement. Cross-reference pipe size (left) and insulation thickness (top) to locate the part number. The last digit(s) indicates axial movement required. (Minimum axial movement is assumed unless specified.)

Explanation of part number:

Copper tube guides are supplied with dielectric spacers. To order, add -C to the part number. 000-000-0-C

Use the 1" insulation column when no insulation is required.

To view the Standard Series Dimensions, you need to first know the part number.

Standard Series Pipe Guides Dimensions

To view the precise dimensions for the standard series pipe guide you require, you first need to know the body number of that guide. The body number can be determined by referencing the bold two-digit number in the part number. If you haven't done so already, use the Standard Series Ordering Chart to obtain the part number. Once you have the body number of the guide you require, look for it in the left-hand column of the chart below. Dimensions are listed horizontally according to the diagram.
