Pipe Clamps, Pipe Brackets & Pipe Support Systems
A pipe clamp does far more than simply hold a pipe in place. The right pipe support system improves safety, reduces vibration, prevents movement, protects pipework from damage, and helps maintain long-term system performance.
At Air Energy, we supply a comprehensive range of pipe clamps, pipe brackets, pipe clips, mounting systems, strut components and suspension hardware for industrial pipework installations across Australia. Whether you're supporting compressed air pipework, stainless steel tube, aluminium pipe, PE100 pipe, gas lines or process pipework, we can help you select the right support solution.
Our range includes pipe clips, bolted pipe clamps, insulated pipe supports, stainless steel mounting systems, threaded rod accessories, strut systems and specialised industrial pipe mounting hardware.
Why Pipe Support Systems Matter
Poorly supported pipework can create serious operational issues.
Without the correct pipe support brackets and mounting systems, pipework can experience:
- Excessive vibration
- Joint stress
- Premature fitting failure
- Sagging pipe runs
- Thermal expansion issues
- Increased maintenance costs
- Safety risks
A properly designed pipe and clamp system helps maintain alignment, improve reliability and extend the lifespan of the entire installation.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a pipe clamp?
A pipe clamp is a mechanical support used to secure pipework to walls, ceilings, strut systems or structural steel while reducing movement and vibration.
What is the difference between a pipe clamp and a pipe bracket?
A pipe clamp typically wraps around the pipe to hold it securely, while a pipe bracket provides the structural support that attaches to a wall, ceiling or framework.
How do I choose the right pipe clamp?
The correct pipe clamp depends on the pipe diameter, pipe material, operating environment, load requirements and installation method.
Can pipe clamps be used for compressed air systems?
Yes. Pipe clamps are commonly used to support aluminium, stainless steel and PE compressed air pipework systems.
Are stainless steel pipe brackets available?
Yes. Stainless steel pipe brackets are ideal for corrosive environments, food processing facilities and outdoor installations.
How often should pipe supports be installed?
Pipe support spacing depends on the pipe material, pipe diameter, operating temperature and application. Larger pipework generally requires more robust support systems.
What industries use pipe and clamp systems?
Pipe and clamp systems are widely used in manufacturing, food processing, pharmaceuticals, mining, water treatment, automotive, chemical processing and compressed air installations.
Do you supply pipe clamps Australia wide?
Yes. Air Energy supplies pipe clamps, pipe brackets, pipe clips and industrial pipe support systems throughout Australia.
