As you can see, there is no comparison. PSI casing spacers are quicker and easier to install,
which translates into overall costs savings for the job.
PSI...the respected leader
in piping system technology.
Time tested and proven reliable casing spacers
and end seals from Pipeline Seal and Insulator, Inc.
will simplify assembly and speed installation to
drastically reduce the overall cost of inserting water
and sewer lines into casings. In addition, these
engineered products will provide long term corrosion
protection to reduce maintenance costs and
improve the longevity of your piping system.
With over thirty-five years of experience in
providing products used to positively position and
electrically isolate carrier pipe from casings, PSI is
uniquely qualified to offer a complete compliment of
products for all your water and sewer cased piping
needs.
Features abound with
PSIs line of pipeline products.
To maintain the position as an industry leader, a
number of unique design improvements have been
engineered into PSIs line of casing spacers.
For example, PSI was the first to offer:
Heat fused PVC coating for superior corrosion pro-
tection or economical corrosion resistant paint.

Tough, heavy duty painted steel (Model A) or 304
stainless steel (Model S) spacers are available for
large diameter pipe, or unusually heavy pipe, for
long casings or wherever maximum strength and
toughness are required. Standard models include
diameters of 4 (100mm) through 120 (3,048mm)
with 8 (200mm) or 12 (300mm) band widths.
Runner configurations may be specified to match
application and carrier/casing differential.
PVC Fusion Coated Spacers for
added corrosion resistance.
In addition, fusion coated steel (Model C) casing
spacers may be ordered for the ultimate in
strength, toughness and extended life. They also
are available in diameters of 4 (100mm)
through 120 (3,048mm) and larger.

between the carrier pipe and casing. To insure filling
material is maintained within or foreign objects kept
out of the annular space Link-Seal Modular Seals
may be used to positively seal the carrier pipe in
the casing. For more information on Link-Seal

Stainless Steel Casing Spacer/Isolator Specification
Factory made casing spacers/isolators of the following description
shall be installed on any carrier pipe passing through a pipe casing or
tunnel. They are designed to support and protect the carrier pipe, and
electrically isolate the carrier pipe from the casing.
Stainless Steel Casing Spacers/Isolators with risers shall be Model
S8G-2 for pipes up to 24 inch diameters and Model S12G-2 for larger
pipe sizes as manufactured by Pipeline Seal & Insulator, Inc., Houston,
TX., or Engineer approved equal, provided and installed where shown
on drawings and in accordance with these specifications. Alternate con-
siderations shall be submitted to Engineer 14 days prior to bid opening
for consideration of other manufacturers of casing spacers. The spacer
insulator system shall be designed and fabricated for the specific pro-
ject and application for which they are furnished. The casing
spacer/isolator system manufacturer must have a current ISO
9001:2000 Registered Quality Assurance Program.
Example
Coated 12 (305mm) wide steel band casing spacer with 2
(50.8mm) wide glass reinforced polymer runners for a 16
(400mm) ductile iron pipe with a 17.40 (400mm) outside

wide for Model S12G-2. For carrier pipes 42-inch diameter and larger,
bands shall be three or more segments and 12 gauge steel.
B. Steel Risers - high grade 304 stainless steel, minimum 10 gauge
thickness shall be fabricated to support the carrier pipe and its liquid
load. Risers shall be sized to position the carrier pipe in the casing,
support all loads and provide proper contact for the isolation function.
C. Liner - The casing spacers/isolators shall have a flexible PVC liner
of 0.09 inch thickness with a Durometer "A" 85-90 hardness and a min.
58,000 volt dielectric strength.
D. Runners - The runners shall be of high pressure molded Glass
Reinforced Polymer with a minimum compressive strength of 18,000
psi, 2-inch in width and a minimum of 8 inches long (11-inch for S12G-2).
Polyethylene runners are not an acceptable alternative. The runners
shall be attached to the band or riser by 3/8 inch welded stainless steel
studs and lock nuts which shall be recessed far below the wearing sur-
face on the runner. The recess shall be filled with a corrosion inhibiting
filler.
E. Hardware - The band section shall be bolted together with 304
stainless steel studs, nuts and washers. Hardware shall be
5/16-inch for pipes up to 42-inch diameter and 3/8-inch for
carrier pipes 42-inch and larger.
Quality Assurance
Each spacer/isolator shall be manufactured at a facility
that has a Registered ISO 9001:2000 Quality
Management System. Copy of current ISO 9001:2000
Registration shall be provided with material submittal.
Considerations
The above specification is considered sufficient for most
pipe sizes and types up to 36-inches and casing lengths up to
300 feet. For larger size pipes or longer or unusual casings,
please contact Pipeline Seal and Insulator, Inc.

Custom Multiple Carrier Spacers/Isolators
30
Pipeline Seal and Insulator is the industry leader in the design
and fabrication of multiple carrier spacers used for inserting dif-
ferent size pipes, conduits and wires into casings. Projects have
ranged from simple dual pipe configurations to
complex pipe/conduit arrangements,
designed for maximum strength and
efficiency within all pipe
specifications.
Customized spacers are also available
with electrically isolated rollers to ease
installation of unusually heavy carrier
pipes or for extremely long casing
pipe runs.
PSI Models A (painted), C (coated) or S
(stainless steel) may be designed and
fabricated to meet the needs of your custom project.
All custom multiple carrier spacers share the same fetures as
our single carrier spacers described throughout this brochure.
However, the multiple carrier spacers are considerably more
complex and therefore require more detailed
design considerations.
Please contact PSI during your design phase.
We have over thrity-five years experience with
custom casing spacers and can provide you
with insights into design criteria based on real
world applications in the water and
wastewater industry.

II casing spacers require no bolts/nuts,
can center/restrain pipe and compensates
for grade adjustments
with a variety of differ-
ent runner heights.
