Meet PipeLounge PL6 6" Pipe Support by Malco — a modular, insulated line-set cradle engineered to streamline HVAC installations. Designed to hold multiple insulated pipe runs while allowing for natural expansion and contraction, PL6 delivers dependable support with a simple, scalable footprint. This pack includes 30 units, giving you practical bulk value for larger jobs without sacrificing performance.

• Modular, stackable design: The PL6 system is built to be joined or stacked to fit a range of pipe sizes and configurations. No need for a busier assortment of struts or specialty supports — you adapt on the fly as your layout evolves.
• Insulation-friendly protection: Each cradle cushions the pipe, safeguarding insulation and maintaining clean alignment over time even as temperatures shift.
• Expanded capabilities with fewer parts: By replacing multiple standalone supports, PL6 reduces material variety, labor steps, and on-site inventory—saving time and clutter on busy job sites.
• 110 lbs capacity without a strut: A robust base capability that covers common HVAC line-set groups, with the confidence to support heavier runs when fully assembled with standard hardware.
• Easy integration: Install using standard 3/8" threaded rod and mounting hardware, following conventional mounting practices. It’s compatible with typical project specs and code-based spacing requirements.
• Weather-ready option for exposed installs: When installations aren’t indoors, advise weather protection to preserve performance and longevity of the piping and supports.
• Bulk efficiency: The pack of 30 units helps reduce procurement time and inventory needs, making it ideal for multi-run projects or ongoing service/maintenance operations.

Ideal use cases

• New or retrofitted HVAC installations in mechanical rooms, basements, rooftops, or above ceilings where insulated line sets run in parallel or alongside each other.
• Projects with multiple insulated line sets that require flexible spacing and easy reconfiguration as layouts change.
• Applications needing reliable support without the bulk of traditional strut systems — especially where space is at a premium or when frequent rework is anticipated.

Who benefits most

• HVAC contractors and mechanical installers seeking a streamlined, adaptable support system.
• Facilities teams and building operators responsible for long-term performance of insulated piping runs.
• Project managers aiming to reduce on-site complexity, inventory, and installation time without compromising reliability.

Why PL6 matters in the real world

Traditional pipe supports often require multiple components, increasing both material costs and labor hours. PipeLounge PL6 changes that equation by offering a modular platform that easily expands with your piping footprint, protects insulation, and keeps line sets aligned under thermal cycling. It’s a practical alternative that directly translates to faster installs, cleaner runs, and more durable insulation integrity in HVAC and mechanical applications.

Practical installation tips

• Plan spacing in accordance with applicable codes or project specifications, and apply weather protection for outdoor runs.
• Pre-assemble stacked PL6 units as needed to match your pipe sizes before mounting for smoother field installation.
• Use standard 3/8" threaded rod and mounting hardware to integrate PL6 into your existing support framework.
• Check insulation clearance periodically to ensure cushions remain effective and alignment remains true after maintenance or expansions.
