Behringer Smooth Bore Rod Mount
A Smarter Way to Support Pipe and Tube Systems
In process environments where stability matters, the Behringer Smooth Bore Rod Mount (Fig. 221) offers a simple, dependable way to secure pipe and tube systems—without overcomplicating things. Built with rugged materials, smooth-contact inserts, and easy field installability, this mount is designed to hold strong, stay aligned, and keep things running smoothly.
Protect What’s Flowing
At the heart of the Smooth Bore Rod Mount is a purpose-built insert that provides full surface contact around your tubing or piping. That “smooth bore” design minimizes vibration, reduces wear, and helps prevent tube distortion—key for protecting flow integrity in high-purity and process-critical applications.
It’s ideal for:
-
Sanitary processing lines
-
Mechanical piping runs
-
Utility and support systems
-
Harsh industrial environments
If your tubing needs a clean, secure hold—this is the bracket for the job.
Built to Fit Your System
The Smooth Bore Rod Mount supports tubing and pipe sizes from ¼” to 6.625” OD, giving you flexibility across a wide range of applications. It’s also available with several insert materials, each offering unique benefits based on your environment:
-
Polypropylene (Blue): General-purpose
-
Santoprene (Beige): Impact-resistant and flexible
-
Polysulfone (Black): Great chemical and temperature resistance
-
HDPE (White): Durable, moisture-resistant
-
High-Temp Nylon (Black): Handles elevated temps without compromise
Pair your insert with 304 SS, 316 SS, or electro-zinc plated carbon steel hardware to match your process or facility specs.
Installation That Works in the Real World
We’ve all dealt with pipe support systems that look good on paper but are a pain to install. The Fig. 221 Rod Mount is the opposite. It’s made to be cut-to-length in the field, welded in place, and adjusted as needed—without the usual frustration.
Need elevation flexibility?
Pair it with Behringer's Figure 225 or 226 stanchions to make your support telescopically adjustable to the exact height you need.
This mount lets you get the job done cleanly and confidently.
Expansion Capable (When You Need It)
Temperature changes? No problem. Add Behringer’s optional Thermal Expansion Guide and let your pipe or tubing shift axially while staying secure. It’s an easy way to build in thermal movement tolerance without sacrificing stability.
