A PPR double pipe clip holds a hot and cold pipe pair side by side.
It keeps paired lines evenly spaced. As a result, runs look neat and are easy to label.
What is a PPR double pipe clip?
PPR pipe clips and clamps hold PPR pipe to walls and ceilings. Single clips hold one pipe, double clips hold a hot and cold pair, and clamps give a firmer grip for larger pipes.
PPR expands when hot. Therefore, correct clip spacing and fixed points keep long runs straight and stop them sagging.
