Can it be used for Unions already connected to pipes? That is, can I open one end of the strap and wrap around the union if I cannot fit over the top?

Absolutely - I accidentally widened the strap so that it came apart, and it totally goes together again very easily. Just make sure there is enough strap to go back into the piece that allows you to tighten it again. Good luck.

Yes, the strap comes out. You could wrap in around anything up to six inches in diameter give it take.

Yes you can! If fact you may want to hold the pipe with this tool and turn the union with another tool.

you can pending on how you connect the bottom straps, however the extra weight i noticed causes closing it a little more work

I have only used this strap over the neck. But OpTech makes a wide verity of straps. Check out their web site.

You probably can .... but I wouldn't recommend it. The manufacturer does not mention that a strap can be used, so to be on the safe side you probably should not. Hope this was helpful.

It's fairly flexible. It's a medium soft rubber. Might be a little big to wrap around a pipe of that size with it wrapping on itself. Maybe lengthwise it would work

I've never tried it personally, but I'm pretty sure the strap would be long enough to go around one another. Like 85% sure lol

You shouldn't have a problem. The opening is comprised of 4 different flaps of fabric allowing for wider flanges to go through.

Howdy there, so I don't see why not.. The box has adjustable arms that tighten to the crossbar. If it's not tight enough, a little utility pipe foam, (for keeping household pipes warm). Just don't tighten the adjustment to tight, as they are a "bear", to remove if the "nut" gets stripped. I suggested to yakama, that this could be an issue in the future for others. . They are addressing it. So hopefully you get NEW adjustment adapters... Good luck..

Yes. The red bolt you see in the image can be unscrewed and removed to fit your strap into the assembly. Works great.

I actually had some one put this in for me. My old PVC pipes fit. You my need extra hardware silver ring fasteners w/screws & a possible rubber washer. Take a pic of it and take it to your local hw store for more help. Sorry. I wanted to take a pic of it but was too confusing using gmail �

I am not sure if you can wrap over existing rope as I have not done it. It seems to me that if rope is tightly wrapped and secured that it would work but I am not sure.

Yes, there are Velcro straps with a d-ring that can surround pipes/poles up to about 4 inch diameters.

Yes u can but make sure u leave little margin for expansion / contraction ( e.g leave a loop in between ) Below are some tips : http://www.familyhandyman.com/plumbing/pex-piping-everything-you-need-to-know/view-all#step13

I use mine on a 1 inch galvanized pipe mounted to the floor joists above my basement. It's a tight fit, but works fine.

Yes. Take a bolt and put it through the long open slot and put a nut on it and tighten down. Then put the strap on and then another bolt and tighten it. You may use a washer in between if you like. It works great.

I suppose you can, only if it is inferior or has poor quality construction . I had a problem with one of the straps it kept slipping out of the notch so I had to use a needle and thread on it . Other than that no big deal.

It is designed for exhaust pipes. You can stainless steel straps or exhaust clamps. Typically T-bolt clamps not threaded hose clamps.
