You gotta love the Technical Committee Members of old looking into the
future and seeing Davine the hundred pound fitter with a hundred and
fifty pounds of crank in her tool belt having to hang from the pipe
she just hung.

Quoting Parsley Consulting <[email protected]>:
And in addressing Jerry's initial question the key phrase in Tom's
excellent article is [emphasis added is mine]:
When selecting a listed component, one applies just the weight of
the water filled pipe to the listed value. There is no need to
calculate five times the weight of the water-filled pipe or the
250-lb increase when applying a listed hanger _*since that is
already included in the listing process*_.
You're wrong Tom, that was a very well written article.

And there is the Sprinkler Age magazine. An article addresses this,
too bad Ken Wagoner didn't write it. It would've been so much better.

I’m doing this right?
I’m looking at a Tolco Fig 200-2 hanger ring.
The max load is 400lbs.
400 – 250 = 150 / 5 = 30lbs
2” sch ~5.13lbs
This means if I use this ring I will have to space my hangers
about 5’8” on center.
