VICTAULIC has introduced a direct-groove two-piece coupling for large-diameter piping systems.
The new product is part of the company’s Advanced Groove System line. The company now offers rigid and flexible couplings for pipe sizes up to 1525mm in diameter for HVAC, mining, water and wastewater and industrial applications.
According to Victaulic, a large-diameter joint, normally requiring several hours to weld, can be installed in less than an hour using its couplings.
The couplings feature a two-piece housing and a wedge-shaped groove which delivers pressure ratings up to 2400kPa, depending on the pipe size and wall thickness.
