*Note: For heavy pipe installed in the horizontal

position, (eg. Cased Crossings), it is recommended
that the No. of bows be maximised to support
maximum load per spacer. Use the following
formula to calculate the No. of segments per spacer
for such heavy pipe:
No. of Segments = [Pipe OD (mm) x 3.1428] ÷ 180.
(Round the result down to nearest whole number). IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
The chart on the back page of this guide indicates the number of HD series
®
kwik-ZIP centralizer segments required and the approx setting position for
various pipe diameters.
For heavy weight pipe and diameters greater than those listed, the following
formula may be used to calculate the number of segments required. This will
maximise the number of bows supporting the pipe for heavy loads.
Where: D = Outside Diameter of Casing (mm) Note: 1 inch = 25.4 mm
®
N = Number of kwik-ZIP centralizer segments,
For heavy weight pipe: N = [D x (22/7)] ÷ 180

SETTING GUIDE POSITION (REFER SIZE TABLE AND SETTING GUIDE)

Step 1. When you have established the appropriate setting guide position (see
table on rear page), place the segments on a flat surface and insert the male
section of each segment into the screw housing on the next segment as indicated 2 x HD 30 segments installed on
by the arrows in the above diagram. 4” Stainless Steel Pipe.
