Fig. 70 Gruvlok SlideFLEX coupling is a lightweight, high-performance, ready-for-installation coupling.The slide action eases assembly time and effort and the patented gasket provides four separate sealing surfaces for added protection. The SlideFLEX fig 70 coupling is designed to be used with roll groove or cut groove steel pipe, grooved light wall pipe, Gruvlok grooved-end fittings, and valves. It allows for pressures between full vacuum up to 1000 psi on roll or cut grooved carbon steel standard wall pipe.
The Fig. 7000 Lightweight Flexible Coupling is designed for applications where system flexibility is desired. The Fig. 7000 Coupling is approximately 30% lighter in weight than the Fig. 7001 Coupling, and allows for working pressure ratings up to 600 psi (41.4 bar). The Figure 7000 Lightweight Flexible Coupling is intended for use in several applications. See gasket Grade Index for gasket recommendations.
The Gruvlok® Fig. 7001 Coupling forms a flexible grooved end pipe joint connection with the versatility for a wide range of applications. Services include mechanical and plumbing, process piping, mining and oil field piping, and many others. The coupling design supplies optimum strength for working pressures to 1000 PSl (69 bar) without excessive casting weight. The flexible design eases pipe and equipment installation while providing the designed-in benefit of reducing pipeline noise and vibration transmission without the addition of special components. To ease coupling handling and assembly and to assure consistent quality, sizes 1" through 14" couplings have two 180° segment housings, 16" have three 120˚ segment housings, and 18" through 24" sizes have four 90° segment housings, while the 28" O.D. and 30" O.D. couplings have six 60° segment housings. The 28" O.D. and 30" O.D. are weld-ring couplings.
The Fig. 7003 Hingelok Coupling is specially designed for applications requiring a quick connection and/or disconnection of a pipe joint. The Fig. 7003 Hingelok Coupling is ideal for those applications where frequent pipe removal is required for maintenance or any other reason. Fig. 7003 Hingelok Coupling provides for system working pressure ratings up to 300 psi (20.7 bar). The Fig. 7003 Hingelok Coupling halves are permanently hinged to provide an assembly that eases handling and installation. The two coupling halves are hinged for ease of handling and are secured by a cam-action handle. Sizes 1" to 4" use toggle link plates and sizes 5" to 8" use a toggle bolt to attach the cam-action handle to the housings. The cam-action locking handle permits rapid installation without the need for additional tools and maintains secure closure of the coupling into the pipe grooves. Final assembly of the locking pin to the Hingelok Coupling adds an extra measure of security required in critical pipe joint applications.
The Fig. 7010 Reducing Coupling makes it possible to directly connect two different pipe sizes, eliminating the need for two couplings and a reducing fitting. The specially designed reducing coupling gasket with a center rib assures proper positioning of the gasket and prevents the smaller pipe from telescoping into the larger during assembly. Fig. 7010 Reducing Coupling allows for working pressure ratings up to 500 PSI (34.5 bar). Not recommended for vacuum applications.
The Gruvlok® Figure 7011 Standard Coupling is a flexible coupling designed to join roll grooved or cut grooved 30" O.D. pipe for a wide range of applications, including Commercial/Industrial Construction, Mining, Process Piping and many others. This coupling’s operating temperature ranges from –40°F to 230°F (-40°C to 110°C) with the Grade E EPDM gasket and –20°F to 180°F (-29°C to 82°C) with the Grade T Nitrile gasket. The operating pressure ranges 15" of Hg. vacuum to 300 psig on standard wall steel pipe.
The Gruvlok® Fig. 7001-2 introduces new 2-piece large diameter standard groove couplings. Uses standard grooves (conforming to AWWA C-606). No special grooves or grooving tools needed. Pressures to 350 P.S.I. on cut or roll grooved pipe with a wall thickness of 0.250" or greater. No special fittings needed. No special valves needed. Up to 23% less weight than competitive models. Sizes: 14" through 24".
The Gruvlok® Figure 7022 coupling with Gruv-Ring forms a flexible grooved end pipe joint for use on steel pipe. Services for this versatile connection include large O.D. mining applications such as process, tailings and slurries. The coupling’s multi-segment design supplies optimum strength for working pressures to 175 PSl.
The Figure 7001SS Flexible Coupling is a Stainless Steel coupling made of ASTM A-743/A743M cast stainless steel which is the cast equivalent to 316 Stainless Steel. It is designed for installation on Stainless Steel schedule 10 and 40 pipe and fittings. The stainless steel material is suitable for a variety of aggressive corrosive environments. The Figure 7001SS flexible coupling can accommodate some angular, rotational and axial pipe movement. It is capable of pressures up to 750 psi (41.4 bar) depending on pipe size and wall thickness.
