GRUVLOK
INSTALLATION AND ASSEMBLY

Figures 7000 & 7001 Couplings
1. Check & Lubricate Gasket
Check gasket to be sure it is
compatible for the intended
service. Apply a thin coating
of Gruvlok lubricant to outside
and sealing lips of the gasket.
Be careful that foreign
particles do not adhere to
lubricated surfaces.
2. Gasket Installation
Slip the gasket over the pipe
end making sure the gasket
lip does not overhang the
pipe end.
On couplings 10" and larger it
may be easier to turn the gasket
inside out then lubricate and
slide the gasket over the pipe
end as shown.
3. Alignment
After aligning the two pipe ends,
pull the gasket into position
centering it between the
grooves on each pipe. Gasket
should not extend into the
groove on either pipe.
On couplings 10" and larger,
ip or roll the gasket into
centered position.
4. Housings
Place the coupling housing
halves over the gasket making
sure the housing keys engage
the grooves. Insert bolts and
turn nuts nger tight.
5. Tighten Nuts
Tighten the nuts alternately
and equally to the specied
bolt torque.* The housing
bolt pads must make metal-
to-metal contact.
CAUTION: Uneven tightening
may cause the gasket to pinch.
6. Assembly is Complete
Visually inspect the pipe
joint to assure the coupling
keys are fully engaged in the
pipe grooves and the bolt
pads are in rm even metal-
to-metal contact on both
sides of the coupling.
CAUTION: Proper torquing of coupling bolts is
required to obtain specied performance. Over
torquing the bolts may result in damage to the bolt
and/or casting which could result in pipe joint
separation. Under torquing the bolts may result in
lower pressure retention capabilities, lower bend load
capabilities, joint leakage and pipe joint separation.
Pipe joint separation may result in signicant property
damage and serious injury.
CAUTION: Use of an impact wrench is not recommended
because the torque output can vary signicantly
due to many variables including air pressure supply,
battery strength and operational variations.
* Refer to page 28 with bolt torque table

variables including air pressure
supply, battery strength and
operational variations.
* Refer to page 28 with bolt torque table. NOTE: Sizes 16" and larger are
cast in multiple segments. To install
the larger sizes align the tongue
and pocket of the couplings
appropriately and tighten the nuts
alternately to the specied bolt
torque. When properly assembled
there will be a small equal gap
between the adjacent bolt pads.

1. Pipe Preparation
Inspect the pipe ends making sure the criteria, in the Gruvlok Large Diameter Pipe Roll and Cut Groove
Specications, are met.
Turn the gasket inside out and
slide the gasket completely
over one of the pipe ends.
Turning the gasket inside out
will reduce the stretching
necessary to put the gasket into
position. Ideally, approximately
75% of the pipes gasket-sealing
surface, (Dimension A) should
be visible when the gasket is
in proper position. This will
aid in step 4.
3. Lubricate Gasket
Lubricate the gasket sealing
lips. The use of Gruvlok
lubricants ensures compatibil-
ity between the lubricant and
the gasket.
4. Alignment
Pull the two pipes into
contact aligning the pipe ends.
CAUTION: Be careful not to pinch
ngers during this step. Working
your way around the circumference
of the pipe, ip the gasket toward
the pipe end so that the proper
side is facing out. The end of this
procedure will result in the gasket
snapping into place. Position the
gasket centrally between the
grooves of the two pipe ends.
5. Lubricate Gasket
Lubricate the exterior surface of the gasket.
This helps prevent pinching of the gasket
during assembly.
6. Housings
Secure the housings about the pipes making sure
the coupling keys are engaged in the pipe end
grooves. Hint: For horizontal assembly, place
housing segment on top of the pipe to support
the weight of the housing segment. Secure the
adjacent housing with an oval neck track bolt
and heavy hex nut and then rotate the secured
housings, again balancing the weight of the
housings on the top of the pipe. Continue this
procedure for all segments.

CAUTION: Proper torquing of
coupling bolts is required to
obtain specied performance.
Over torquing the bolts may
result in damage to the bolt
and/or casting which could
result in pipe joint separation.
Under torquing the bolts may
result in lower pressure retention
capabilities, lower bend load
capabilities, joint leakage and
pipe joint separation. Pipe joint
separation may result in
signicant property damage
and serious injury.
CAUTION: Use of an impact
wrench is not recommended
because the torque output can
vary signicantly due to many
variables including air pressure
supply, battery strength and
operational variations.
7. Tighten Nuts
Firmly torque each bolt. The
specied minimum torque
for each nut is 600 ft.-lbs. The
specied maximum torque for
each nut is 800 ft.-lbs.

un-obstructed view of the pipe for correct alignment.
A. Slide the coupling on the pipe past the
groove. The bolts and nuts can be hand
tightened to position the coupling in place.
B. Align the mating pipe end. Align the two
adjoining pipes together.
C. Slide the coupling back over the grooves
so that the coupling keys are located over
the respective grooves on both pipe ends.

NOTE: The Gruvlok Fig. 7012 Flange
requires the use of a Flange Adapter
Insert when used against rubber
surfaces (Figure C1), serrated ange
surfaces or mating anges with inserts
(Figure C2). The Flange Adapter Insert
will be exposed to the uids in the
system. Ensure that the Insert is
compatible with the uids in the
systems and with adjacent piping components.
4. Install Gasket
Stretch the Gruvlok gasket
around the pipe end and then
press the gasket into the cavity
between the pipe O.D. and
the ange. The gasket must
be properly positioned as
shown in the gure below.

5. Lubricate Gasket Lip
With the gasket in place apply
lubricant to the exposed
gasket tip, which will seal on
the mating ange. Tighten the
nuts on the latch bolts
alternately to the specied
latch bolt torque.* The ange
housings must be in rm
6. Inspect Mating Flange
Verify that the mating ange
face is hard, at and smooth,
free of indentations, which
would prevent proper sealing
of the Gruvlok Flange gasket.
Assure the gasket is still in the
proper position and align
Gruvlok Flange bolt holes
with the mating ange, pump,
tank, etc., bolt holes.
It is important to line up the bolt holes before bringing the two anges
together. Sliding the anges into place will dislodge the gasket and
cause leakage to occur. When using a ange insert, it is important that the insert is properly
aligned with the gasket prior to tightening the bolts.
WARNING
7. Install Bolting

1. Pipe Preparation
Cut the appropriate size hole in
the pipe and remove any burrs.
Be sure to remove any debris
from inside the pipe. Clean the
gasket sealing surface within
5
/8" of the hole and visually
inspect the sealing surface for
defects that may prevent
proper sealing of the gasket.
Check the gasket to be sure it
is compatible for the intended
service. Apply a thin layer of
Gruvlok lubricant to the back
surface of the gasket. Be careful
that foreign particles do not
adhere to the lubricated
surfaces. Insert the gasket back
into the outlet housing making
sure the tabs in the gasket
line up with the tab recesses
in the housing.
Lubricate the exposed surface
of the gasket. Align the outlet
housing over the pipe hole
making sure that the locating
collar is in the pipe hole.
4. Alignment
Align the strap around the pipe,
insert the bolts and tighten
the nuts nger tight. Some
sizes use a U-bolt design.
5. Tighten Nuts
Alternately and evenly tighten
the nuts to the specied bolt
torque.
FIGS. 7045 & 7046SPECIFIED BOLT TORQUE
Specied bolt torque is for the oval neck track bolts and U-bolts
used on the Gruvlok Clamp-Ts. The nuts must be tightened
alternately and evenly until fully tightened.

CAUTION: Proper torquing of the bolts or U-bolts is required to obtain
the specied performance. Over torquing the bolts or U-bolts may
result in damage to the bolt, U-bolt and/or casting which could result
in lower pressure retention capabilities, lower bend load capabilities,
pipe joint leakage and pipe joint separation.
CAUTION: Use of an impact wrench is not recommended because the torque
output can vary signicantly due to many variables including air pressure, battery
strength and operational variations.

2. Check and
Lubricate Gasket
Check to assure the
gasket material is
acceptable for the
intended service. The
Gasket color code is
green for EPDM and
orange for Nitrile
(Buna-N).
CAUTION: Use only
Gruvlok Xtreme
TM

Lubricant. Gruvlok Xtreme
Lubricant contains silicone.
If silicone is unacceptable
for the application contact
Gruvlok for the lubrication
recommendation. Apply
a thin coating of Gruvlok
Xtreme Lubricant to the
gasket lip and outside
surface of the gasket.
1. Pipe Preparation
Make certain the pipe
ends are free of
indentations,
projections or other
imperfections, which
could prevent proper
sealing of the gasket.
Mark each pipe at a
distance from the end
of the pipe according
to the pipe size:
GRUVLOK

Figure 7305 HDPE Coupling
NOTE: Make certain the
HDPE pipe end is square
cut to
1
8" maximum for
the 2" to 4" and
5
32"
maximum for the 6" and
larger sizes.
3. Gasket
Installation
Slip the gasket over
one of the pipe ends.
Make sure the gasket
does not overhang
the pipe end. Align
the second pipe and
while keeping the
pipes in the butted
position slide the
gasket back over the
second pipe end. The
gasket must be
positioned centrally
between the lines on
the pipe ends.
4. Housings
Place the Figure 7305
housing over the
gasket, making sure
the tongue on one
half is aligned with
the recess of the
other half.

Fittings
4. Insert Pipe & Tighten Bolts
Insert the prepped and lubricated pipe end
into the Sock-It Fitting until the pipe end
makes contact with the internal pipe stop. A
slight twist while pushing tting and pipe
together will ease the required insertion force.
The end of the Sock-It Fitting should be within
1
16" from the edge of the marking on the pipe.
(See Step 1). Rotate the tting until the desired
position is obtained. Tighten the lock bolt until
the bolt head bottoms against the threaded
boss. (NOTE: The 2
1
2" Sock-It tting has 2
locking bolts for each pipe end.)
Install the other prepped and lubricated pipe
end into the Sock-It tting in the same manner.
1. Pipe Preparation
Pipe surface shall be cleaned
at least 1" from the end of the
pipe to remove any coating,
indentations, projections, and
sharp edges which could
affect proper gasket sealing.
As a guide for installation,
mark the pipe at a distance of
1
1
2" from the end for 1", 1
1
4",
and 1
1
2" size ttings and 1
3
4"
for the 2" & 2
1
2" size ttings.
NOTE: When Allied XL pipe is
used it is necessary only to remove
sharp edges and burrs at the end
of the pipe. No additional cleaning
is required.
2. Check Bolts
Check all lock bolts to be
sure they do not extend into
the I.D. of the Sock-It Fittings
as this would prevent proper
insertion of the pipe.
3. Lubricate Gaskets
Apply a light coating of
GRUVLOK Lubricant to the
gaskets located in each end
of the Sock-It Fitting. Also
apply a light coating of
lubricant to the pipe ends to
further ease insertion of the
pipe into the Sock-It Fitting.
NOTE: Use only Gruvlok Lubricants.
Other lubricants may affect gasket
performance.
Sock-It Fittings may be removed by loosening
the lock bolts. Reinstallation may be
accomplished as described in Steps 1-4. Install
the other prepped and lubricated pipe end
into the Sock-It tting in the same manner.
APFH-4.13
CAUTION: Do NOT hammer tting on.
System pressure
must be relieved
and vented, and the system drained of uid
prior to loosening the lock bolts to remove
or reposition the Sock-It Fitting.
WARNING
Bolt end must be inspected to assure bolts
ability to cut into pipe. Replace bolts in cases
where bolt end sharpness has been comprised.

The lists are provided as an aid in selecting the
optimum gasket grade for a specic application
to assure the maximum service life.
The recommendations have been developed
from current information supplied by
manufacturers of the elastomers, technical
publications, and industry applications. The
information supplied should be considered as
a basis for evaluation but not as a guarantee.
Selection of the optimum gasket grade for a
specic service requires the consideration of
many factors; primarily temperature, uid
concentration, and continuity of service. Unless
otherwise noted, all gasket recommendations
are based on 100F (38C) maximum temperature
service condition. Where more than one gasket
grade is shown, the preferred grade is listed rst.
Combinations of uids should
be referred to an Anvil Rep.
for an engineering evaluation and
recommendation. In unusual or severe
services, gasket materials should be subjected
to simulated service conditions to determine
the most suitable gasket grade.
Gasket recommendations apply only to
Gruvlok gaskets. Contact an Anvil Representative
for recommendations for services not listed.

Gruvlok Lubricants
GRUVLOK XTREME
TM
LUBRICANT
Gruvlok Xtreme Lubricant has been
developed for use with Gruvlok couplings in
services where improved lubrication is
benecial. This lubricant has an operating
temperature range from -65F to 400F (-53.8C
to 204C), well exceeding the temperature
range of Gruvlok gaskets. This lubricant is
waterproof, thereby eliminating water
wash-out and it will not dry out in the absence
of water. There are ve primary applications
where the Xtreme Lubricant will provide
increased benets: low temperature applications below -20F(-28.0C), high temperature
applications above 150F (65.6C), applications where increased pipe joint exibility is needed,
lubrication of gaskets in copper systems, and for the lubrication of gaskets on HDPE couplings.
Since it is formulated from a non-hydro carbon base, it can be used with EPDM, Nitrile and
Fluoroelastomer gasket materials. It is not to be used with Silicone gaskets.
In low temperature applications the gasket will shrink, thereby lowering the sealing force on
the gasket sealing lips. The temperature change will also force the gasket to slightly re-position
itself. This will cause pipe end sealing surfaces, with small cuts or damage, to become more
susceptible to leakage. Gruvlok Xtreme Lubricant will maintain its lubricating properties at lower
temperatures allowing a properly lubricated pipe end and gasket (assembly) to reposition itself
during temperature cycles.
For high temperature service and copper systems, it is required that the gasket be lubricated
not only on the outside, as with the normal installation of a Gruvlok gasket, but also on the
inside. Lubrication on the inside of the gasket is easily accomplished by turning the gasket
inside out and applying the lubricant. Gruvlok Xtreme Lubricant will maintain its lubricating
properties at higher temperatures, allowing a properly lubricated pipe end and gasket
assembly to re-position itself during temperature cycles. Lubrication of the pipe end and
gasket will help the gasket to adjust into the proper sealing position during temperature
cycles. The lubricant on the interior of the gasket will act to improve the chemical resistance of
the gasket material by providing a thin lubricant barrier between the piping system uid and
the gasket surface. This is particularly important at higher temperatures where oxidizing agents
in the piping system become more aggressive. However, gasket chemical compatibility
must still be considered.
The Gruvlok Xtreme Lubricant has been formulated from low viscosity, non-petroleum based
oils to ease spreading of the lubricant. In applications where pipe movement is expected,
proper lubrication of the gaskets exterior assists the gasket into the proper sealing position as
pipe system movement occurs. This lubricating lm enhances our exible coupling gaskets
ability to compensate for axial, transverse and rotational pipe movements.
Gruvlok Xtreme Lubricant is the only Gruvlok lubricant that is to be used with Gruvlok couplings
and gaskets in HDPE and copper piping systems. Its low temperature capability and lubricity
ensure a highly reliable connection.

GRUVLOK QUICK DRY LUBRICANT
Gruvlok Quick Dry Lubricant is a fast drying lubricant that has been developed for applications
where the piping system is exposed. The service temperature range for this lubricant is from 0 F
to 150 F (-17.8C to 65.6C) and may be used with all Gruvlok gasket material grades. The lubricant
is made from a water emulsion that is non-toxic, it will not impart taste or odor, and does not
support bacterial growth. Gruvlok Quick Dry Lubricant is non-corrosive, non-ammable, and is
NSF approved for use with potable water.
This lubricant is easy to apply by brush or hand, and it quickly dries to a thin lm when in contact
with air. It is water-soluble. The quick drying quality of the lubricant eliminates lubricant drips
caused by over lubrication. If necessary, reapply lubricant prior to assembly. Do not thin or mix
with solvents.
GRUVLOK LUBRICANT
Gruvlok Lubricant is the standard lubricant that has been provided for use with Gruvlok
products for years. Gruvlok Lubricant is water soluble, non-toxic, non-corrosive, non-ammable,
and will not impart taste or odor. It is NSF approved for use with potable water. This lubricant is
acceptable for most applications, however, the Gruvlok Xtreme Lubricant and Gruvlok Quick Dry
Lubricant are now available to improve the performance of the couplings and anges in certain
applications.
CAUTION: HDPE pipe requires the use of Gruvlok Xtreme Lubricant and should not be used with Gruvlok Lubricant.
Specied Bolt Torque
Specied bolt torque is for the oval neck track bolts used on Gruvlok couplings and anges.
The nuts must be tightened alternately and evenly until fully tightened.
CAUTION: Use of an Impact wrench is not recommended because the torque output can vary signicantly
due to many variables including air pressure supply, battery strength and operational variations.
CAUTION: Proper torquing of coupling bolts is required to obtain specied performance. Over torquing the
bolts may result in damage to the bolt and/or casting which could result in pipe joint separation. Under
torquing the bolts may result in lower pressure retention capabilities, lower bend load capabilities, joint leakage
and pipe joint separation. Pipe joint separation may result in signicant property damage and serious injury.
NOTE: Use specied bolt torque unless otherwise indicated on product installation pages.

To create a Gruvlok pipe joint, all pipe must be prepared to receive Gruvlok coupling or other
Gruvlok pipe system components. The required pipe preparation may be grooving or cleaning
the pipe ends, or cutting a hole in the pipe wall.
For grooved-end joints, pipe may be grooved by either of two methods; cut or roll grooving.
Branch outlet connections require a properly sized and correctly located hole to be cut into the
pipe. Sock-it connections require cleaning of the pipe end. Gruvlok plain-end pipe couplings
require that the pipe be free of burrs and other sharp projections which could damage the
gasket; grooving is not required.
Gruvlok pipe grooving and hole cutting machines are available in a wide variety of designs to
meet specic or general requirements. Gruvlok roll grooving machines produce a groove to
proper dimensional tolerances, concentric with the pipe O.D., even on out-of-round pipe.
Gruvlok hole cutting tools properly center holes for correct assembly of Gruvlok branch outlet
components.
Cut-Grooving:
Cut grooving is intended for use with standard and heavier
wall pipe. Cut grooving produces a groove in the pipe wall by
removing metal from the pipe O.D. The groove removes less
than one half of the pipe wall and does not cut as deeply into
the pipe wall as do standard pipe
threads. The square cut edge of the
groove allows for the full expansion,
contraction, and deection capabilities
of the Gruvlok coupling.

Depth of Cut Groove
vs. Thread
Volume of Metal Removed
Cut Groove vs. Threaded
Roll-Grooving:
Roll grooving does not remove metal. Instead, metal is displaced
while a groove is formed into the outer surface of the pipe wall.
The groove conguration has slightly rounded edges resulting in a
less exible joint than a cut groove joint. This reduces available
pipe joint movement by 50% over cut grooved coupling joints. Roll
grooving is commonly used on a wide range of pipe thicknesses up
to 0.375" wall steel pipe and sizes to 24" O.D.
Roll Grooving
The I.D. dimple" formed from roll grooving reduces the
I.D. (on an average) less than 2%.

Pipe Preparation
Branch Outlet Pipe: Clamp-T
Clamp-T installations require the cutting of a

hole through the pipe wall. The hole must be
properly sized and located on the centerline
of the pipe to assure reliable performance of
the Clamp-T gaskets.
After the hole has been cut into the pipe wall,
any burrs and sharp or rough edges must be
removed from the hole. The outside pipe
surfaces within
5
/8" of the hole must be clean
and smooth. Any scale, projections or
indentation which might effect the gasket
sealing on the pipe must be removed. The
surface around the entire circumference of
the pipe within the A dimension in the
charts must be free from dirt, scale, or
projections which might effect the proper
assembly of the Clamp-T.

For Sock-It Fittings, the pipe ends must be
square cut as measured from a true square line.
The maximum allowable tolerance is 0.030"
(0.76mm) for all sizes. Any sharp edges, burrs,
etc. left on the pipe from cutting must be
removed. If these are not removed, they may
damage the gasket as the pipe is inserted into
the Sock-It Fitting.
After cutting, pipe ends must be completely
cleaned a minimum of 1" (25.4mm) back from
the pipe end to remove all pipe coating, weld

FLEXIBLE COUPLING
ANGULAR MOVEMENT
Designed-in clearances allow limited
deection of the pipe joint within the
coupling, without introducing eccentric
loads into the coupling joint.
The maximum available angular
movement of Gruvlok exible couplings
on roll groove joints is shown in the
performance data for each coupling. The
amount of angular exibility varies for
each coupling size and type. The values
account for pipe, groove, and coupling tolerances.
FLEXIBLE COUPLING
LINEAR MOVEMENT
Linear movement is accommodated within the coupling
by allowing the pipe ends to move together or apart in
response to pressure thrusts and temperature changes.
The available linear movement provided by Standard
Gruvlok couplings is shown below:
LINEAR MOVEMENT:
RIGID COUPLINGS
Gruvlok rigid couplings Fig. 7400, Fig. 7401 and Fig. 7004 HPR are designed to provide a
joint with the attributes of a welded or anged connection. Therefore, these joints would
remain in strict alignment and would resist deection and linear movement during service.
FLEXIBLE COUPLINGS
Figs. 7000, 7001, 7003, 7010 are the exible couplings provided in the Gruvlok product line.
The following information on movement applies to these exible couplings.

/2
DESIGN FACTORS
Gruvlok
Couplings
MOVEMENT
Each exible design Gruvlok coupling can provide for pipe system movement up to the
design maximum for the specic size and type coupling being utilized. Movement is
possible in the Gruvlok coupling due to two factors: (1) designed-in clearance between the
key of the coupling and the groove diameter and groove width, and (2) the gap between
pipe ends joined by the coupling.
ANGULAR MOVEMENT:
APFH-12.11
A sufcient amount of coupling joints must be provided to accommodate the calculated
movement (expansion or contraction) in a pipe run or segment thereof .
EXAMPLE:
A 200 foot long straight run of 4" steel cut grooved pipe between anchor
points. Minimum Temperature: 40 F (4 .4 C) (at time of installation) .
Maximum Oper . Temperature: 160 F (71 .1 C) .
Thermal expansion tables show this system will expand a total of 1 .80" due to
the temperature change .
DESIGN QUESTION
How many couplings are required to account for the thermal growth?
AVAILABLE LINEAR MOVEMENT PER FLEXIBLE COUPLING:
Using the table on page 39, we see that there is 0 .188" linear movement per coupling
(4" Flexible Coupling)
COUPLINGS REQUIRED
As indicated above, the total movement is 1 .80". Thus, the number of couplings is
determined as follows:
No . of Couplings = Tot . Movement / Avail . Movement per Coupling
FOR OUR EXAMPLE:
No . of Couplings = (1 .80") / (0 .187") = 9 .6,
Therefore 10 couplings are needed
200 FEET
MOVEMENT - APPLICATIONS
Gruvlok
Couplings
POSITION OF COUPLINGS
In order for the couplings to provide for the movement indicated by the above example, it
would be necessary to install all couplings with the maximum gap between pipe ends.
Conversely, if the thermal movement was contraction due to a reduction of system
temperature, the coupling joints would have be installed with the pipe ends butted, thus
accommodating the shrink of the pipe system.
THERMAL MOVEMENT
The clearance in the grooved coupling joint, will allow a limited capability for combined
linear and angular movement. A partially deected joint will not provide full linear
movement capability. A fully deected coupling joint provides no linear movement
capability. The Gruvlok coupling will not allow for both maximum linear and maximum
angular movement simultaneously.
In systems where both are expected, additional joints may be required.

DRAINAGE, BURIED SYSTEMS, ETC
The exible design of the
Gruvlok coupling makes it
ideal for use in a wide variety
of systems in which random
changes of the pipe direction
can be accommodated by the
Gruvlok couplings angular
deection capability rather
than requiring the use of
special ttings.
Pitched drainage systems, buried pipe systems where pipe laying conditions are subject
to settlement, and exposed pipe systems laid on rough ground are but a few of the many
types of pipe installations that present conditions where the functional capability of the
Gruvlok coupling are useful.
MOVEMENT - APPLICATIONS
Gruvlok
Couplings
Pitched for Drainage
Buried Pipe Systems
CURVE LAYOUT
NOTE: Fully Deected Joint Will Not
Allow For Linear Expansion.
In the example above, two couplings were added to account for thermal expansion and
the other couplings accommodate only the misalignment. The additional stress from the
combined movement is therefore relieved.
ROTATIONAL MOVEMENT:
Piping systems designed with Gruvlok Couplings can accommodate minor rotational
movement from thermal expansion, settlement, vibration, or other similar movements.
However, Gruvlok Couplings should never be used as a continuous swivel joint.
For Deection
For Expansion
Utilizing the rotational capability of the Gruvlok Coupling, the pipe life of a slurry or
similar coarse material piping system can be extended.
For pipe rotation, the system must be shut down and internal pressure relieved.
The pipe may then be rotated one-quarter turn, the couplings retightened, and service
resumed. If performed on a regular basis, pipe rotation will evenly distribute wear over the
entire inner surface of the pipe.

Barlows Formula is a safe, easy method for nding the relationship between internal
uid pressure and stress in the pipe wall. The formula predicts bursting pressures that
have been found to be safely within the actual test bursting pressures.
It is interesting to note that the formula uses the outside diameter of pipe and is
sometimes referred to as the outside diameter formula.
P = (2 t S) / D
Where:
P = internal units pressure, in psi
S = unit stress, in psi
D = outside diameter of pipe, in inches
t = wall thickness, in inches

NOTES:
1. In plan or elevation, near, far, and both sides, locations refer to nearest member parallel
to plane of drawing and not to others farther behind.
2. In section or end views only, when weld is not drawn, the side to which arrow points is
considered near side.
3. Welds on both sides are of same size unless otherwise shown.
4. Symbols govern to break in continuity of structure or to extent of hatching or
dimension lines.
5. Tail of arrow used for specication reference.
6. All welds are continuous and of user's standard propertions and all except V-grooved
and bevel-grooved welds are closed unless otherwise shown.
7. When welds are drawn in section or end views, obvious information is not given by
symbol.
8. In joints in which one member only is to be grooved, arrows point to that member.
Basic Arc & Gas Welding Symbols Notes
NOTES:
1. Size, weld symbol, length of weld and spacing must read in that order from left to right
along the reference line. Neither orientation of reference line nor location of the
arrow alter this rule.
2. The perpendicular leg of

,

,

,

weld symbols must be at left.
3. Arrow and other side welds are of the same size unless otherwise shown. Dimensions
of llet welds must be shown on both the arrow side and other side symbol.
4. The point of the eld weld symbol must point toward the tail.
5. Symbols apply between abrupt changes in direction of welding unless governed by the
All Around symbol or otherwise dimensioned.

A) For use in wet and dry pipe
automatic sprinkler systems installed
in accordance with all applicable
standards or codes.
B) Prior to installing the sprinkler,
count the number of fully
developed male threads on the
brand of sprinkler to be installed. If
seven (7) perfect threads are
counted, the sprinkler should thread
into the
1
2" or
3
4" thread from
three (3) to four (4) threads hand
tight. If ve (5) to six (6) threads are
counted, the sprinkler should thread
into the
1
2" or
3
4" thread from two
(2) to three (3) threads hand tight.
C) The use of an anaerobic pipe thread
sealant is preferred for thread make
up when connecting to another
pipe tting or nipple. If attaching a
sprinkler head, please refer to the
manufacturers installation instructions
and apply pipe thread sealant only
to male threads of the sprinkler.
D) If either of the above fails to allow
the sprinkler to make-up to a
minimum of ve (5) to six (6) full
threads, do not overtighten the sprinkler. Instead back the sprinkler out of the tting.
Clean any debris and/or pipe sealant from both the male and female threads. Gauge
both the male threads of the sprinkler and the female threads of the Adjustable Drop
Nipple for compliance with ASME B1.20.1. Specication for Tapered Pipe Threads. The
same procedure would apply if a leak has been detected. If within tolerance, reapply the
anaerobic pipe sealant and assemble to the required length. Allow twenty-four hours for
setting.
E) Connect the Adjustable Drop Nipple assembly to the sprinkler system by wrenching on
the make-up area on the Drop Nipple. DO NOT WRENCH ON THE BARREL PORTION OF
THE UNIT OR SPRINKLER. Damage to the Adjustable Drop Nipple or Sprinkler may result.
F) After the ceiling has been installed adjust the sprinkler to its nal position by using the
sprinkler wrench and assemble the escutcheon plate to the inner support ring. It is
recommended that the system pressure be relieved when adjusting, however it is not
necessary to drain the system.

2" Tee-Let, is a 1" outlet tting
manufactured to t perfectly on the 2" header size listed, while leaving a
1
32" gap along the
longitudinal centerline of the 2
1
2" size. If a perfect t is required for a 2
1
2" header pipe, then
a 1"
x

1
2 - 3" Tee-Let would be ordered. Size consolidations are employed to reduce inventory
and provide for greater exibility.
Thread Make-up and Installation
A) For use in systems installed in accordance with all applicable standards or codes. (See
Section III, Item C)
B) Prior to installing sprinkler, ensure that no dirt, weld spatter or damage is in the
threads. Then count the number of fully developed male threads on the nipple or
sprinkler to be installed into the ttings. Compare number of threads counted to the
number of required fully developed threads as shown in the thread chart located on
the back of this sheet. If thread count is correct, proceed with installation (Step C), if
thread count does not match, check nipple or sprinkler for proper thread gage
measurement and discard if not to ASME B1.20.1
C) The use of an anaerobic pipe thread sealant is preferred for thread make up when con-
necting to another pipe tting or nipple. If attaching a sprinkler head, please refer to
the manufacturers installation instructions and apply pipe thread sealant only to male
threads of the sprinkler.
D) If either of the above fails to allow the sprinkler or nipple to assemble to a minimum of
full threads, do not over tighten. Instead back the sprinkler or nipple out of the tting.
Clean any debris and/or pipe sealant from both the male and female threads. Gauge
both the male threads of the sprinkler or nipple and the female threads of the Tee-Let
for compliance with ASME B1.20.1. Specication for Tapered Pipe Threads. The same
procedure would apply if a leak has been detected.
If within tolerance, reapply the anaerobic pipe sealant or Teon tape and make-on to the
required length. Allow twenty-four hours for setting.

Recommended Hole Sizes
The hole cut in the branch or header pipe can be cut prior or subsequent to attachment of
the Tee-Let. One advantage of cutting the hole after welding is that the pipe is left intact
during welding thereby reducing shrinkage and possible distortion. If holes are cut prior to
welding, as some codes require, then the following hole sizes are recommended. Note that
the same hole diameter for a given outlet size is required for both Type A and Type C Tee-
Lets 1-1
1
2" larger.

Holes may be cut by mechanical
means: including hole sawing,
mechanical ame cutting (oxy-
acetylene or propane) and air
plasma cutting (constricted
tungsten arc) machines. Merit
offers a simple approach to
cutting the hole. Hand-held
templates are sized to match
your plasma cutter.

Recommended Welding Procedures
As a general rule, the weld should be only as hot as required to allow the weld to penetrate
the materials being welded while concomitantly allowing gases developed in the welding
process to escape. Every effort must be made to avoid welding too hot or overheating both
the pipe and the Tee-Let. Excessive heat may cause the wrench tight threads (those in the
bottom of the Tee-Let near the weld zone) to distort while also causing the branch pipe
to bend. It should be noted that Merit Tee-Lets have been subjected to exhaustive testing
and evaluation, and only negligibly distort when subjected to excessive heat. The threads,
on the other hand, may not return to their gauged form
after cooling if excessive heat causes them to expand. The
following is intended only as a guide, and assumes that the
welding equipment is properly calibrated and functioning
normally and the operator is qualied.

1) Inspect both male and female components prior to assembly.
Threads should be free from mechanical damage, dirt, chips and excess cutting oil.
Clean or replace components as necessary.
2) Application of pipe dope
Use a pipe dope that is fast drying, sets-up to a semi hard condition and is vibration
resistant. Alternately, an anaerobic sealant may be utilized.
Thoroughly mix the thread sealant prior to application.
Apply a thick even coat to the male threads only. Best application is achieved with a
brush stiff enough to force sealant down to the root of the threads.
3) Joint Makeup
For sizes up to and including 2" pipe, wrench tight makeup is considered three full
turns past handtight. Handtight engagement for
1
2" through 2" thread varies from
4
1
2 turns to 5 turns.
For 2
1
2" through 4" sizes, wrench tight makeup is considered two full turns past
handtight. Handtight engagement for 2
1
2" through 4" thread varies from 5
1
2 turns
to 6
3
4 turns.

INSTALLATION NOTE
Anvil Anvilets are designed to have no more than a
1
16" gap (1.6mm) between the
base or skirt of the Anvilet when it is seated directly upon the appropriate run pipe.
However, it is recommended that the skirt of Anvilets be held slightly above the run
pipe and tack welded to provide a small continuous root gap between the skirt and
run pipe before completing the all-around welding beads or llet.
Forged Steel Anvilets
PRESSURE TEMPERATURE RATINGS
MSS Standard Practice SP-97 gives the following correlation between tting pressure
class and pipe schedule number/wall thickness designation for the calculation of
pressure-temperature ratings:

The maximum allowable pressure of a tting is computed in accordance with the
applicable piping code or regulation for straight seamless header (run) pipe or for
material of equivalent composition and mechanical properties to the tting. Any
corrosion or mechanical allowances and any reduction in allowable stress due to
temperature or other service conditions, must be applied to the pipe and tting alike.

The above spacing and capacities are based on pipe lled with water. Additional valves and ttings
increase the load and therefore closer hanger spacing is required.
* Many codes and specications state pipe hangers must be spaced every 10ft. regardless of size.
This local specication must be followed.

Pipe Support
When designing the hangers, supports and anchors for a grooved-end pipe system, the
piping designer must consider certain unique characteristics of the grooved type coupling
in addition to many universal pipe hanger and support design factors. As with any pipe
system, the hanger or support system must provide for
1) the weight of the pipe, couplings, uid & pipe system components;
2) reduce stresses at pipe joints; and
3) permit required pipe system movement to relieve stress.
The following factors should be considered when designing hangers and supports for a
grooved-end pipe system.
Pipe Hanger Spacing:
The following charts show the maximum span between pipe hangers for straight runs of
standard weight steel pipe lled with water or other similar uids.
Do not use these values where critical span calculations are made or where there are
concentrated loads between supports.

NOTE: Although support spacing is shown at 140F, consideration should be given to the use of CPVC or
continuous support above 120F.
The possibility of temperature overrides beyond regular working temperatures and cost may either make
either of the alternatives more desirable.
This chart based on continuous spans and for un-insulated line carrying uids of specic gravity up to 1.00.
The above table is meant as a general guideline, it is recommended that the pipe manufacturer be
consulted for specic spacing recommendations relating to their pipe, load conditions, operating
temperature and service conditions.
Local codes and specications may also vary from the above recommended spacing and should
be consulted for the applicable spacing requirements prior to installation.

Welding rings may be employed to assure proper alignment as well as the correct welding
gap. In addition to using welding rings, some simple procedures can be followed to assist
the pipe tter. Below and on the following page are alignment procedures commonly used
by todays craftsmen.
Tee-to-Pipe
