The simplest enclosures are generally bar clamps. They are typically used on small diameter pipes, 4” and less. They are most often used for covering bad welds and leaking threads where pipes are mated to various types of fittings like 90s, unions, couplings, and valves. Bar clamps are typically made from common bar stock sizes. They are quick to design and fabricate, and are usually the least expensive of clamps.
