1 Scope
This Uhde standard (UN) applies to the design and construction of industrial and chemical plants. It contains
requirements about design dimensions, weights and allowable loads of the clamps form F and form FK for
uninsulated and heat-insulated steel rising pipes. American Standards with metric dimensions are based for
this pipe clamps.
