FAST, SIMPLE ASSEMBLY
PLASTINETICS® gasket joint is quickly and easily joined together by simply inserting the spigot end of the pipe into the bell socket.

 

LOW ASSEMBLY FORCE
Due to low assembly force, prefabricated sections can be joined together easily and quickly.

 

POSITIVE SEAL
Multi-lip design of the sealing gasket provides a positive seal that is pressure and vacuum tight.

 

NO GASKET FISH-MOUTHING
Retained ring design prevents fish-mouthing or dislocation of the sealing gasket.

 

SMOOTH INNER SURFACES
Sealing gasket is exceptionally smooth.

 

DEFLECTION
The PLASTINETICS® retained-ring integral joint permits an angular deflection of 2 degrees at the joint.

 

CAUTION
When utilizing gasket joints, provisions to eliminate thrust must be part of the installation and design by contractor.

Easy, 3-Step Joint Assembly

1. Make certain that the pipe end, or spigot and gasket area are clean and free of dirt. However, the multi-lip gasket design has proven to be effective even with dirt present.

2. Lubricate the pipe end and the triple sealing section of the rubber gasket with a light coating of recommended lubricant. Make certain the pipe end is supported off the ground so lubricant doesn’t pick up dirt.
