* Maximum available gap between pipe ends. Minimum gap = 0.
† Maximum Pressure and End Load are total from all loads based on standard weight steel pipe. Pressure ratings and end loads
may differ for other pipe materials and/or wall thickness. Contact your GRINNELL Representative.
** Gold color coded metric bolt sizes for DN25 - DN300 couplings are available upon request.
‡ Max End Gap is for cut grooved standard weight pipe.
