Overview
A two-rod pipe roller carries pipe on a roll supported between two threaded rods, letting the pipe move along its axis with thermal expansion. The two-rod arrangement carries heavier loads than a single roller hanger. Hot-dip galvanized for wet, humid, and outdoor service.
Common Uses
- Heavier steam and hot-water lines that expand and contract
- Large-diameter horizontal runs
- Outdoor, humid, and corrosive environments
- Mechanical and industrial process piping
Key Features
- Free-turning roll between two rods
- Higher load capacity than single-roller hangers
- Hot-dip galvanized, electro-galvanized axle
- Manufactured to MSS SP-58 pipe support standards

Frequently Asked Questions
When do I use a two-rod roller?
Use it for heavier pipe that must move with thermal expansion — the two-rod design carries more load than a single-roller hanger.
Why hot dip galvanized?
The heavy zinc coating suits outdoor, humid, and corrosive environments and keeps the roll turning freely.
