FAQs

What size pipe do these clips fit?

These clips are specifically designed to fit 15mm diameter copper or steel pipes.

Are screws included with the pipe clips?

No, the mounting screws are not included. You will need to provide your own suitable wood screws for installation.

Can I remove the pipe without removing the clip from the wall?

Yes, the clips feature a two-part split design that allows you to detach the top section, freeing the pipe without disturbing the base fixed to the wall.

What material are the clips made from?

The clips are made from solid die-cast brass, ensuring strength and durability.

Are these clips suitable for outdoor use?

While brass is durable, these clips are primarily intended for indoor heating, plumbing, and decorative applications. Prolonged outdoor exposure may affect the finish.

How many clips are in a pack?

Each pack contains five (5) school board pipe clips.

Can I use these for plumbing applications?

Yes, they are suitable for both heating and general plumbing pipework where a secure and visible fixing is required.

Troubleshooting

Clip base feels loose after mounting

Ensure you are using appropriate length and type of wood screws for the mounting surface. If mounting on plasterboard, use suitable wall anchors. Re-tighten screws firmly.

Pipe does not fit snugly into the clip

Verify that the pipe diameter is exactly 15mm. Ensure the clip is fully closed with both halves properly seated.

Brass finish appears dull or tarnished

Clean the clip with a soft cloth. For tarnish, use a mild brass polish specifically designed for decorative metals, following the polish manufacturer's instructions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility:

  • Pipe Size: Exclusively designed for 15mm diameter copper or steel pipes.
  • Mounting Surface: Suitable for fixing to wood, plaster, or other solid materials on walls, floors, and ceilings.

Setup:

  1. Position the Clip: Place the base part of the clip against the mounting surface where the pipe is to be secured.
  2. Mark Screw Holes: Mark the positions for the two mounting screws through the holes in the clip base.
  3. Drill Pilot Holes (if necessary): For hard materials, drill appropriate pilot holes for your chosen wood screws.
  4. Secure the Base: Attach the base of the clip firmly to the mounting surface using two suitable wood screws (not included). Ensure the screws are long enough to provide a secure hold.
  5. Place the Pipe: Position the 15mm pipe within the secured base.
  6. Attach the Top Part: Place the top, split section of the clip over the pipe and align it with the base. The pipe is now held securely.

Care:

  • Clean the brass clips periodically with a soft, dry cloth to maintain their shine. For stubborn marks, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying. Avoid abrasive cleaners which can damage the finish.
