The Fastest and Most

Economical Method to

Postion and Support

Plumbing Chase Piping.

The Sumner Pipe Support System is designed to eliminate the

problems and costs of supporting small diameter pipe in the

chase – here’s how:

1. Sumner Pipe Supports are pre-dimensioned and

specifically designed for the application.

The Sumner Pipe Support System maximizes a plumber’s time by

eliminating the time consuming measuring process. Each support is

pre-measured and pre-dimensioned for quick, easy installation.

Everything a plumber needs is included except a screwdriver!

2. With Sumner, search and decision time is reduced.

Forget searching around the supply shack for those bits and pieces

necessary to complete the pipe support job. It’s all there in each neat,

compact Sumner package.

3. Sumner Supports mean more efficient inventory.

Sumner eliminates the cost of carrying excess inventory! Now you can

inventory only what you need. The Sumner product line is pre-packaged,

labeled and so compact in size that further savings can be realized by

reducing storage area.

4. Sumner Supports provide electrolytic isolation with the

use of tape.

We all know that the use of tape to isolate a pipe is far from an exact

science, and certainly time consuming. Sumner Supports virtually

eliminate the use of tape – all you need is a Sumner Pipe Support

and a screwdriver.

5. Sumner Supports are structurally strong and rigid.

Sumner Supports are strong enough to withstand the abuse of other

tradesmen working in the chase and allows for piping expansion. Let’s

face it – the Sumner Pipe Support System is the most revolutionary

product to appear in the plumbing industry in years!

POSIFIX

PIPEFIX

®

The Posifix is the smallest support specifically designed to fit between studs. Its application is to align and support hot and cold lines with waste piping in a lavatory or sink rough-in. The Posifix is pre-slotted to hold 1/2" or 3/4" supply pipe 4", 6" or 8" apart. The unit mounts on 1" through 1-1/2" waste pipe for perfect alignment.

4-27/32" 4" 6" 8" 9-11/16" 11/16" 1-13/16" 4" 6" 8" 9-9/16"

Similar to Posifix, the Pipefix can be used in lavatory or sink rough-ins. The Pipefix application holds and aligns 1/2" and 3/4" supply lines with waste pipe, specifically in tight applications. Only 3-1/2" of wall clearance is required to mount the Pipefix. The support is pre-slotted to hold supply piping 4", 6" or 8" apart. The Pipefix attaches to 1-3/8" through 6-5/8" O.D. vent or waste piping by means of a stainless steel band.

The Pipefix is available in two materials: • A-503 Polystyrene (yellow)

• A-603 ABS (orange)

STANDARD PACKAGE

includes two 1/2" – 3/4" clamps, one 1" – 1-1/2" clamp and attaching screws. The Posifix is available in A-501

Polystyrene (yellow).

STANDARD PACKAGE

includes one 7" Quik-Lok stainless steel band, two 1/2" – 3/4" clamps and attaching screws.

ECONOMY PACKAGE

includes one 5" continuous feed stainless steel band, two 1/2" – 3/4" clamps and attaching screws.

STAKFIX

®

1-3/4" O.D. 1-1/2" I.D. 6" 1-1/4" 4-1/4" 4-1/4" 4-1/8"

The Stakfix is used strictly inside of the chase and attaches to 1-3/8" – 6-5/8" O.D. pipe vents or stacks by means of a stainless steel band similar to the Pipefix. The Stakfix has three mounting surfaces for supporting a combination of piping up to 1-1/2", running vertically and/or horizontally. The Stakfix also can be strapped onto metal struts or nailed to wood. Two to three-inch pipe can be supported on the Stakfix by using the U-bolts. The P-551 U-bolt is copper plated to prevent electrolysis. Smaller pipe can be mounted on the Stakfix using either style of clamp.

The Stakfix is available in two materials: • A-502 Polystyrene (yellow)

• A-602 ABS (orange)

STANDARD PACKAGE

includes one 7" Quik-Lok stainless steel band, three 1" – 1-1/2" clamps, attaching screws and P-556 clips.

ECONOMY PACKAGE

includes one 5" continuous feed stainless steel band, three 1" - 1/2" clamps, attaching screws and P-556 clips.
