Grooved Fittings

The The Grooved System provides an economical and efficient piping

system solution and offers significant benefits when compared to
conventional types of pipe connections including:
• Faster Installation
• Because there is no need for welding or heating, the
System ensures a safer and reliable working environment
• Ensures easy alignment
• Reduces noise and vibration
• Easy to install and remove in case of any maintenance requirements
Grooved Systems
Feature a wide range of coupling and fittings for piping applications in Air Conditioning, Fire Fighting
Systems and water pipe lines etc

Grooved Systems offer 3 types of couplings:

High Pressure Couplings (Flexible) • Medium Pressure Couplings (Rigid, Flexible) • Light Pressure
Couplings (Rigid, Flexible)
Material
Grooved Coupling housing and other grooved fittings are cast from Ductile Iron to ASTM A536 Grade
65-45-12 in red paint or hot dipped galvanized, bolts are carbon steel to ISO 898 - 1 class 8.8 heat treated.

Gasket (C shaped)
It is important to use the gasket that suits your application, use the table below to select
the optimum gasket.

Material Temp Range Colour General Recommended Application

EPDM -34°C to +110°C Green Strip Hot water service, variety of diluted acid, oil free air, chemical.
This is NOT recommended for Petroleum services.
Nitrile -29°C to +82°C Orange Strip Petroleum products, vegetable and mineral oils, air with oil
vapours. This is NOT recommended for hot water +66°C or
for hot dry air over +60°C.
Silicone -34°C to +177°C Red Gasket Dry heat and air without hydrocarbons up to +177°C and
certain chemicals

Grooved Coupling Gaskets must be lubricated on the lips and outside back prior to assembly using lubricant or
equivalent for a wet system. However for a dry system recommends using a silicone based lubricant. Note:
Petroleum-based lubricants should NOT be used at all.
