Abstract

See full text

A support assembly is disclosed which is especially useful for supporting a plurality of tubular members such as the steel or fiberglass pressure tube assemblies used in a reverse osmosis water purification system. A molded, cast, extruded or pultruded hollow module element is formed with flat sides and a concave cylindrical tube receiving surface so that a plurality of modules can be stacked vertically and/or horizontally to support any desired number of tubes. Apertures in the flat sides permit the modular elements to be quickly attached and aligned to each other by nut and bolt or other type fastener elements. Various modifications of the shape and size of the modules permit the support by a single module of one-fourth of one tube, one-half of one tube, or one-half of each of two tubes.
