Grooved mechanical piping is one of those alternatives. A Novel Design A grooved mechanical pipe joint consists of four elements: grooved-end pipe, a gasket, coupling housing, and fasteners.

Grooved mechanical piping has been changing the way contractors do business for more than 85 years, but this method of pipe joining is still unknown or misunderstood in some areas of the commercial ...

Flexible grooved mechanical couplings are a great alternative to welded U-shaped expansion loops, welded offsets, expansion joints and rubber bellows. Additionally, the width of the coupling housing ...

Mechanical grooved pipe couplings, however, last the life of the system. Their ability to accommodate system vibration reduces the risk of joint failure, without the need for speciality products ...

Victaulic, a manufacturer of mechanical pipe joining systems, has developed a new system for saturated steam and condensate piping. Designed for commercial and industrial steam applications, the ...

Victaulic, a manufacturer of mechanical pipe-joining systems, has received updated and renewed ABS (American Bureau of Shipping) Type Approvals for a range of grooved-end couplings and fittings.

Ongoing water shortages relating to insufficient and aging infrastructure and lack of proper maintenance in South Africa and Africa, make mechanical pipe-joining systems manufacturer Victaulic’s ...

In 2007 alone, the use of Victaulic grooved mechanical pipe couplings in lieu of welding on HVAC piping systems reduced airborne weld emissions by 145 metric tons of particulate matter – which is ...

Nashville-based Kenny Pipe & Supply will open a new office in Hendersonville next month. A supplier of commercial, industrial and mechanical pipe, valves and fittings, the company's wholesale ...

In Part One of this series, Marcel Ley, Victaulic Regional Sales Manager looked at why flexible grooved mechanical couplings are essential for successful thermal pipe movement mitigation. Part Two ...

Flexible grooved pipe joining systems allow for design flexibility, which greatly reduce stress on the piping systems and provides a more compact, inspectable, and productive method of ...
