heavy duty pow’r-gear - ideal...

Prior to the introduction of heavy duty no-hub couplings, a locator lug was molded into the cast iron fitting to provide the installer with an indicator for proper coupling installation. After the introduction of heavy duty couplings, the location of this lug caused a problem. Why? Heavy duty couplings are wider than standard duty couplings and must seal over the lug. This is difficult in that the irregularity in the fitting surface creates a leak path. The in-field response to this has been for the contractor to grind down the lug before installing the coupling. The Heavy Duty Pow’r-Gear coupling solves this problem in that it fits properly between the locator lug on the fitting and the pipe. So not only does the Heavy Duty Pow’r- Gear coupling solve this problem, it improves the process. It eliminates the need to grind down the lug. In addition, the coupling has fewer clamps than a conventional heavy duty, which reduces installation time. So, where the contractor must use a heavy duty coupling because of its structural reinforcement benefit and higher sealing capacity, turn to Ideal’s Heavy Duty Pow’r-Gear...the new solution in heavy duty couplings!

TRANSCRIPT

Prior to the introduction of heavy duty no-hub couplings, alocator lug was molded into the cast iron fitting to providethe installer with an indicator for proper coupling installation. After the introduction of heavy duty couplings,the location of this lug caused a problem. Why? Heavyduty couplings are wider than standard duty couplingsand must seal over the lug. This is difficult in that theirregularity in the fitting surface creates a leak path. Thein-field response to this has been for the contractor togrind down the lug before installing the coupling. TheHeavy Duty Pow’r-Gear coupling solves this problem in

that it fits properly between the locator lug on the fitting and the pipe. So not only does the Heavy Duty Pow’r-

Gear coupling solve this problem, it improves the process. It eliminates the need to grind down the lug. In addition, the coupling has fewer clamps than a conventional heavy duty, which reduces installation time. So, where the contractor must use a heavy duty coupling because of its structural reinforcement benefit and higher sealing capacity, turn to Ideal’s Heavy Duty Pow’r-Gear...the new

solution in heavy duty couplings!
