Insulation Protection Shield for 5-Inch Pipe
The Anvil 0500340104 is a galvanised carbon-steel shield designed to protect pipe insulation at support points. It fits a 5-inch pipe with 1-inch thick insulation and an outside diameter of 7 41/64 inches. The shield is 18 inches long and manufactured from 16-gauge material.
Suitable for Standard Hanger Installations
This shield suits installers who need a Type 40 protection saddle that meets A-A-1192A, WW-H-171-E Type 41, ANSI/MSS SP-69 and MSS SP-5 standards. It is not intended for systems where the insulation thickness, pipe size or outside diameter differ from the stated dimensions.
5-Inch Pipe Size with 1-Inch Insulation
The decisive specification is the combination of a 5-inch pipe size and 1-inch insulation thickness, which fixes the shield's 7 41/64-inch inside diameter. Verify these two measurements against your pipe and insulation before ordering.

Questions about this item
How is the 16-gauge galvanized shield secured to a 5-inch pipe with 1-inch insulation, and what step is often missed?
Wrap the 18-inch shield around the 7 41/64-inch insulation OD and fasten the overlapping tabs; the missed step is tightening the bands evenly so the shield stays centred.
What maintenance will the carbon-steel shield need after installation?
Inspect the galvanized coating annually for white rust or mechanical damage; touch up any bare spots with zinc-rich paint to maintain corrosion resistance.
What limit appears first when the shield sees continuous thermal cycling on a hot-water line?
Repeated expansion and contraction can fatigue the 16-gauge steel at the tab bends, leading to cracks before the galvanized layer itself fails.
