PHD Launches New WINGSERT® Pipe Hanger for Sprinkler Systems
Columbiana, OH, USA - PHD Manufacturing, Inc., a leading manufacturer of Pipe Hangers and Devices, Strut Products & Accessories, and Sprinkler Systems Products, is introducing the new "WINGSERT®" Pipe Hanger. The patent pending "wing-tipped" design allows the insert to remain installed until the pipe fitter desires to release it - it's simple and effective. View the short video below to see how easy it is! The factory-installed WINGSERT® saves installers the time of searching through the box for loose cumbersome parts. Engineered with 'going green' in mind, there are no disposable plastic washers or other loose parts. "Unlike the competition, our insert stays intact from the factory to the installation. If you want to take the insert out, all you have to do is squeeze it to release it," said Rick Persing, Director of Sales & Marketing for the Fire Protection division. Designed for 1/2 through 2 inch pipe, the WINGSERT® hangers have Underwriters Laboratories and Factory Mutual approvals and are available in metric. Our slogan, "The Future is Now at PHD!" was launched at the recent AFSA Convention in Washington, DC, to announce PHD's plans to launch many innovative product ideas in the near future. "We're excited about the response we're getting for the WINGSERT® - with no added material, and no added cost, we are happy to provide the best of both worlds," added Persing.
