Product Description
Features and Advantages
• Sizes 3" - 12" consists of G2 design.
• Can be used on 4"-48" AWWA C900 PVC, 4"-18" AWWA C909 PVCO and AWWA C906 HDPE pipes along with 3"-12" IPS OD*
ASTM D2241 PVC pipe. (*A transition gasket is required on IPS Plastic Pipe). See Tables A and B for further details.
• Sizes 4"-12" are listed with Underwriters Laboratories, approved by Factory Mutual Research, and tested to and meets the
requirements of ASTM F1674.
• Safety factor is twice (2:1) the standardized pressure rating listed in Tables A and B.
• Offers 5° of deflection on 3"-12" AWWA C900, 3° on 14"-24", 2° on 30"-36" and 1° on 42"-48".
• Standard gland color is Coral Red and is made from high strength Ductile Iron per ASTM A536 Grade 65-45-12 and is
compatible with all Mechanical Joints that conform to ANSI/AWWA C111/A21.11.
• Eliminates the need for tie rods and thrust blocks
• Fewer wedges and lower wedge-bolt torque results in quicker and easier installation (see specifications and tables C, D & E).
• Sizes 4"-12" uses a spacer that is easily removed when restraint is used on IPS Plastic pipe.
• Curved wedges reduce the amount of localized pipe deformation.
• The gland’s larger inside diameter allows restraint to be installed on pipe with more ovality.
• Improved design of the wedge bolts prevents over torquing which can damage PVC pipe.
• For sizes 3"-12" and 42" -48" wedges are mechanically attached to wedge bolts, which eliminates the possibility of falling out
during shipping and handling.
• US Patent# 9,822,910 applies to sizes 3"-12" and 42"-48".
