Default Plumbing supplies

I'm looking for the clamps that go around water pipes (don't know what their proper name is). The type that fit on to screwed rod. Anyone know where to get them or if they come in a size that would fit around a 40mm diameter ?

Yeh they probably would but I've just started thinking about it tonight and I'm not even sure if they come in 40mm so was wanting to search online to see

It's how the clamps are mounted. They have a machined hole in them that you screw rod in to. ooo eerrr missus

40mm isn`t a pipe size mate. You would need to take whatever u want clamping to somewhere like pipeline and show them, pipeline is plumbcentre but set up for commercial stuff. Also think about if you are using 8, 10 or 12mm screwed rod. I dont know what ur clamping but 10mm screwed rod is good for 1.5 tonnes in weight.

I tried searching on screwfix for "pipe clamp" but it just brought up fluorescent tubes?
I'm clamping the two exhausts on my bike. They're held on with springs and are a bit wobbly so I thought I'd clamp them to each other

I know the sort of thing you mean, they're usually used for suspending Gas/steam/compressed air pipes in factories. A bit industrial looking to use on a bike though!
