Vertical lineset installations often face significant stress from thermal expansion and gravity, leading to deformation and buckling—especially at the lower ends of pipe runs. The LineBrace Base Bracket is engineered to eliminate these issues by providing a central fixed point that acts as a fulcrum. This directs thermal movement both upward and downward while supporting the full weight of the lineset. Designed to simplify installation and improve system stability, LineBrace is the smart, reliable solution for secure vertical pipe support.

Q. What benefit does LineBrace have over other traditional cushion-type clamping methods?
LineBrace was designed to carry the weight of a copper lineset riser and is to be used in conjunction with cushion-type clamps and not as a replacement. The LineBrace is meant to be installed in the center of the riser with cushion-type clamps being used above and below. This application also splits the thermal expansion 50% above and below the LineBrace.
While cushion-type clamps hold the piping in place, they are not designed to carry the weight. The synthetic bushing eventually degrades and the lineset drops, causing kinks or other piping damage that can limit a system’s capacity or cause catastrophic compressor failure.
There is no other product on the market like it today.
Q. With metal-on-metal clamping; does the LineBrace have dissimilar metals corrosion issues?
A. Not at all. The LINEBRACE assembly consists of a type 304 Stainless steel clamp, which is attached directly onto the copper piping of an air conditioning lineset riser. Both Stainless steel and copper compatibilities may be found in a noble metals chart. The level of nobility between copper and stainless steel is small therefore electrolytic corrosion is not considered an issue when using LINEBRACE.
Additionally, the Base Brackets are made of hot dipped galvanized and powder coated steel to protect against corrosion. The Temporary Clamping Plate included in the assembly, also serves as dielectric protection between the stainless-steel clamp and the base bracket.”
