Pipe shields
The new Anvil Fig. 167 Insulation Lok-Shield is made of 18-gauge galvanized steel and attaches to pipe hangers without the need for jobsite tack welding or prefabrication, the company says. Anvil Lok-Shield locks in place with easily bent tabs that wrap around the clevis hanger's side and hold the insulation shield firmly in place during installation. These side tabs allow installers to avoid damaging insulation, a common issue when installing insulation protection shields with bottom tabs, preventing potential tearing of insulation or rupturing the vapor barrier. It can be used with 5" diameter or smaller clevis hangers. It comes in 8 shield sizes from X1A to 7A.

Water leak detection system
The Gen-Ear LE can pinpoint water leaks in residential and commercial water lines – including problems in walls and under concrete slabs, swimming pools and hot tubs, the company says. General’s compact amplifier fits easily in the palm of the hand, providing noise-free amplification with built-in, preset audio filters to eliminate settings guesswork. High performance headphones with noise cancellation also block interference from ambient noise. And when released, an amplifier safety button mutes sudden loud noises. Gen-Ear LE’s advanced acoustic ground sensor accurately detects the gurgling or hammering of water escaping from cracked pipes under concrete, asphalt, or tile. Probe rods pinpoint problems beneath soft surfaces like grass or carpet. And the magnetic attachment locates above ground pipe or hydrant leaks.
