This rigid coupling is designed for sprinkler systems
The Style 009V Coupling (photo) is an installation-ready rigid coupling for fire sprinkler systems. The coupling is available in sizes from 1¼ to 12 in. New one-touch technology allows for installation ease, accuracy and speed with one touch per bolt. The Style 009V eliminates guesswork and mitigates risk with the new install indicator that provides simple visual verification of a proper installation. The next-generation gasket design with consistent lubricant coating grips the coupling in place and allows for smooth adjustability before tightening. With extended track neck bolts, the hardware engages into the housing, allowing for one-hand assembly with no spinning bolts or pinched fingers. The robust tab design of the pipe stop facilitates proper alignment in vertical and horizontal installations, ensuring proper groove engagement and alignment. The optimized design features of the Style 009V deliver confidence to any fire-protection system, the company says. — Victaulic, Inc., Easton, Pa.
