Pipe support clamp

A support clamp for supporting an elongate object that extends along an axial direction, the support clamp comprising:

• a set of clamp sections, including a first clamp section and a second clamp section;
• the first and second clamp sections each having, respectively:
• a sleeve wall that defines an inner peripheral surface;
• and
• a collar wall that extends from the inner peripheral surface of the sleeve wall to define an inner arcuate profile to engage the elongate object;
• and
• the first clamp section including clasps extending outwardly relative to an outer peripheral surface of the sleeve wall, to removably secure the support clamp within a saddle clevis hanger.

A method of installing a pipe, the method comprising:

• securing a first clamp section of a clamp body within a saddle clevis hanger, with clasps that extend from an outer peripheral surface of the first clamp section engaging the saddle clevis hanger;
• securing a second clamp section to the first clamp section to place the clamp body in a closed configuration, that includes:
• a cylindrical sleeve defined by sleeve walls of the first and second clamp sections;
• and
• an internal passageway defined by a collar of the clamp body that extends radially inward from the cylindrical sleeve;
• and
• with a pipe secured within the internal passageway, axially translating a pipe insulation sleeve that surrounds the pipe to abut the pipe insulation sleeve with the collar.
