Rigidity

Figure 572 and 772 RigidGrooved Couplings are ideallysuited for valve and fittingconnections, long runs, andrisers where pipe movement isundesirable. Rigid couplingsprovide for joints which arecomparable to pipe jointingsuch as welding and flanging.

Grooved Piping Products provide several design and economicadvantages when compared to welded or flanged systems.

Field modifications are easily accommodated with the GroovedSystem as couplings and fittings can be easily rotated,eliminated and/or added to facilitate the necessarymodification.

ECONOMICAL

Grooved couplings are thefastest method to join steelpipe. There is no need fortwo holing with flanges, andthe potential of fire hazards iseliminated when compared towelding or brazing.

ALIGNMENT

Every grooved coupling is aunion which provides easyaccess for maintenance orpiping system modification.Field modification can behandled easily with minimaleffort due to theinterchangeability of thegrooved method.

FLEXIBILITY

Figure 575 and 705 FlexibleGrooved Couplings allow fordeflection of the piping system.

DEPENDABILITY

The coupling housing aredesigned to engage into thegrooves and provide a securejoint. The pipe ends aresealed by a pressureresponsive gaskets which isencapsulated by the ductileiron housing.

RETROFIT

The Grooved System methodallows for quick economicalchanges as necessary for fieldretrofit, with the ability to isolateequipment and piping systemsfor tenant changes and systemrepair.

System Design

Grooved Piping Products provide the versatility required inpiping systems through the use of rigid and flexible pipingproducts. Figure 572 and 575 Couplings incorporate rotationresistant gripping teeth which provide the installer anddesigner with increased benefits.

Rigid Joints

Rigid Couplings provide rigid gripping of the pipe. They aredesigned to bring the pipe ends closely together and thecoupling clamps firmly onto the pipe OD and also into thebottom of the grooves. Because Rigid Couplings clamparound the entire pipe surface, they provide resistance toflexural loads and therefore permit longer spacing to ASME/ANSI B31.1 (Power Piping) and ASME/ANSI B39.1 (BuildingServices) requirements as well as NFPA 13 (SprinklerSystems).

Flexible Joints

Flexible Couplings act as an "expansion joint", allowing linearand angular movement of the pipe. They are designed withthe coupling keys engaging the pipe without gripping on thebottom of the grooves, while still providing for a restrainedmechanical joint. This is particularly useful to allow for pipeexpansion or contraction and piping misalignment.

System Design

Spacing by NFPA 13 Sprinkler Systems(Steel Pipe except Threaded Lightwall)

Pipe Hanger Spacing

All piping systems require that the support systemaccommodate the weight of the pipe, joint connections, fluidand other system components.

In general, the requirements of NFPA 13 govern sprinklersystem design.

Note: Dry pipe and freezer systems are uniqueapplications which benefit from proper pipepreparation and the use of rigid couplings, such asour Figures 572 and 772 couplings and our Tri-Sealgaskets. Reducing couplings are not recommendedfor these applications. Standard lube is notrecommended for this application as it freezes andcan cause leakage.

Proper pipe end preparation and grooving ismandatory to prevent leakage (See specifications forcut and roll grooving). The gasket seat surface mustbe free from score marks, ridges, indentations,projections, loose paint, flaking galvanizing, scale,dirt chips, grease, rust, etc. that would prevent apositive seal.

The best choice for a trouble free system is to useour rigid couplings with our Tri-Seal gaskets and apetroleum free silicone base lubricant. Pre-lubricated gaskets do not require the use of siliconelubricant.

Tri-Seal Freezer Gasket

The Tri-Seal Grade E freezer gasket is used primarily for drypipe fire protection systems, vacuum service, and freezerapplications. The Tri-Seal freezer gasket differs from standardgaskets by closing off the gap or gasket cavity. This isaccomplished by positioning the center “rib” of the gasket overthe gap between the pipes. The Tri-Seal freezer gasket hastwo tapered sealing edges in addition to the center rib foradditional strength and sealing.

The Tri-Seal freezer gasket is available in sizes 11/4" to 12"and is designed for use with Figure 575, 572, 705, 707 and772 Couplings. A petroleum-free silicone based lubricant isrecommended for dry pipe systems. For low temperatureservices or dry systems in cold storage or freezer applications,use Tri-Seal freezer gaskets. For vacuum services greaterthan 10" Hg, Tri-Seal gaskets should be used.

Note: Rigid couplings are preferred for vacuum, dry pipe andfreezer applications.

Pre-Lubricated Gasket

Pre-lubricated gaskets are provided with a propritary coatingwhich eliminates the need for the installer to apply a lubricantduring the assembly process. They are available in both theGrade A EPDM or Tri-Seal Grade E EPDM styles.

Always read and understand the instructions. Never remove anypiping component without verifying that the system is depressurizedand drained.

Rigid Couplings with Tri-Seal gaskets are preferred for dry pipeand freezer applications.

Installation / Assembly Instructions

The following instructions apply to Figure 572 and 772 RigidCouplings. The installation is based on pipe grooved in accordancewith Standard Cut Groove or Roll Groove Specifications.


Step 3. Install the gasket by placing the gasket overthe pipe, which is to be fastened by the rigidcoupling and ensure that the gasket lip does notextend beyond the end of the pipe.

Step 2. Verify that the coupling and gasket gradeare correct for the application intended. Pleserefer to “Gasket Grades and GasketRecommendations” Literature for additionalinformation.

Note: Silicone lubricant must be used in Dry Pipe and FreezerApplications. (Pre-lubricated gaskets do not require silicone libricant.)

Step 1. Inspect exterior groove and ends of thepipe to verify all loose debris, dirt, chips, paintand any other foreign material such as greaseare removed. Pipe ends sealing surfaces mustbe free from projections, indentations, or othermarkings.

Step 4. Bring both pipe ends together, ensure properalignment and slide the gasket into position,properly centering it between the groovedportions of each pipe.

Note: the gasket should not protrude into the grooves on either pipesegments or extend between the pipe ends.

The edges and outer surfaces of the gasketshould be covered with a fine layer of petroleum-

free silicone lubricant or equivalent. Petroleum lubricant should notbe used on Grade “E” “EPDM” or Grade A “EPDMA” gaskets toprevent deterioration of the gasket material. Tri-seal gaskets arerecommended for freezer applications.

25Installation Instructions – Figure 572 and 772 Couplings

Step 5. With one nut and bolt removed, “swingaround” as shown. Verify that the housings areover the gasket and that the housing keys arefully engaged into the grooves.

Figure 572 and 772 Rigid Coupling (Cont.) patented

Step 6. Insert the other bolt into the coupling androtate the nuts until finger tight. Verify that thebolt heads are fully recessed in the housing.

Step 7. Alternate between bolts when tighteningnuts until properly torqued as shown in thetable. Note: uneven tightening can cause thegasket to pinch or bind.

Note that on the 11⁄4" - 8" Figure 572 and 11⁄4" -12" 772 couplings there is an intended gap of upto 1/16 of an inch at each pad to allow forpositive rigid gripping onto the pipe.

Note: Sizes 11⁄4" - 12" Figure 772 andFigure 572 utilize a tongue and recessarrangement, which must be matedproperly for the coupling to functionaccording to design.

These pictures show the patented “UniversalTongue and Recess” arrangement. Thesecoupling housings have identical tongue/recess pairs at each end, which allow anengagement fit no matter which end of thehousing is brought together.

Step 3. Install the gasket by placing the gasketover the pipe, which is to be fastened by theflexible coupling and ensure that the gasketlip does not extend beyond the end of thepipe.

Figure 575, 705 & 707 Flexible Couplings

Always read and understand the instructions. Neverremove any piping component without verifying thatthe system is depressurized and drained.

Rigid Couplings with Tri-Seal gaskets are preferred for dry pipeand freezer applications.


The following instructions apply to Figures 575, 705 and 707Flexible Couplings. The installation is based on pipe groovedin accordance with Standard Cut Groove or Roll GrooveSpecifications.


Step 1. Inspect exterior groove and ends of thepipe to verify all loose debris, dirt, chips, paintand any other foreign material such as greaseare removed. Pipe ends sealing surfaces mustbe free from projections, indentations, and/orother markings.

Step 2. Verify that the coupling and gasket gradeare correct for the application intended. Pleaserefer to “ Gasket Grades and GasketRecommendations” literature for additionalinformation.

The edges and outer surfaces of the gasketshould be covered with a fine layer of

petroleum-free silicone lubricant or equivalent. Petroleum lubricantshould not be used on Grade “E” “EPDM” or Grade A “EPDMA”gaskets to prevent deterioration of the gasket material. RigidCouplings and Tri-seal gaskets are recommended for freezerapplications. Prelubricated gaskets do not require added lubrication.

32 Installation Instructions – Figure 575, 705 and 707 Couplings

Step 4. Bring both pipe ends together, ensureproper alignment and slide the gasket intoposition, properly centering it between thegrooved portions of each pipe. Note: the gasketshould not protrude into the grooves on eitherpipe segments or extend between the pipeends.

Step 5. With one nut and bolt removed, “swingaround” as shown. Verify that the housings areover the gasket and that the housing keys arefully engaged into the grooves.

Step 6. Insert the other bolt into the coupling androtate the nuts until finger tight. Verify that thebolt heads are fully recessed in the housing.

Step 7. Alternate between bolts when tighteningnuts until properly torqued to bring housing incontact with the bolt pads. Note: uneventightening can cause the gasket to pinch orbind. For proper bolt torques please refer tothe table listed on the previous pages.

Note: Figures 575, 705 and 707 Coupling Housingbolt pads must be in contact metal to metal.

Always read and understand the instructions.Never remove any piping component withoutverifying that the system is depressurized anddrained.

Note: Reducing Couplings are not recommendedfor freezer applications.


The following instructions apply to Figure 716 FlexibleReducing Couplings. The installation is based on pipegrooved in accordance with Standard Cut Groove or RollGroove Specifications.


Step 2. Verify that the coupling and gasket gradeare correct for the application intended. Pleaserefer to “ Gasket Grades and GasketRecommendations” literature for additionalinformation.

The edges and outer surfaces of the gasketshould be covered with a fine layer of petroleum-

free silicone lubricant or equivalent. Petroleum lubricant should notbe used on Grade “E” “EPDM” or Grade A “EPDMA” gaskets toprevent deterioration of the gasket material. Prelubricated gasketsdo not require added lubrication.


Note: the gasket should not protrude into the grooves on either pipesegment.

Step 2. Hole must be drilled on the pipecenterline. For crosses, ensure double outletholes are aligned.

Step 3. Holes should be de-burred. The gasket-seating surface on the pipe should beexamined to verify all loose debris, dirt, chips,paint and any other foreign material such asgrease are removed.

Step 1. The hole size should beverified in the table on the left.

‡ Proper hole preparation is required for effectivesealing and performance. Check the pipe sealsurface within 5/8” of the hole to be certain it isfree from conditions which would affect propergasket sealing. Remove any sharp or roughedges from the hole or upper housing contactarea, which might affect assembly, properseating of the locating collar or flow from theoutlet. Check gasket grade to be certain it issuitable for the service. For crosses, ensuredouble outlet holes are aligned on oppositesides of the pipe. The use of threaded productsother than steel pipe, such as dry pendents,etc. may not be compatible with the femalethreaded outlet on the Mechanical Tee. Alwaysconfirm compatibility by contacting Tyco FireProducts.

The following instructions apply to Figure 730 MechanicalOutlet Tee and Cross with threaded and grooved outlets. If across configuration is desired the lower housing is replacedwith an upper outlet housing.

Verify that the gasket grade is correct for the applicationintended. Please refer to “Gasket Grades and GasketRecommendations” literature for additional information.

Step 1. Check for proper gasket positioning inhousing. The alignment tabs on the gasketshould fit into the recesses of the housing.Gasket lubrication is not required on thisproduct.

Step 2. With one nut and bolt removed, “swingaround” as shown.

Step 3. Verify that the housing outlet spike ispositioned in the hole. Insert the other boltinto the housing and rotate the nutsclockwise until finger tight. Verify that thebolt heads are fully recessed in the housing.

Step 4. Alternate between bolts when tighteningnuts until properly torqued with even gapsbetween the bolt pads. Note: uneventightening can cause the gasket to pinch orbind. For proper bolt torques please refer tothe table listed below.

The following instructions apply to Figure 40-5 Strap.

Verify that the gasket grade is correct for the applicationintended. Please refer to “Gasket Grades and GasketRecommendations” literature for additional information.

Step 1.Check for proper gasket positioning inhousing. Gasket lubrication is not requiredon this product.


Step 2.To assemble the strap on the pipe, remove the“U” bolt. Place the outlet housing over thehole in the pipe. Verify that the housing spikeis positioned in the hole.

Step 3.Insert the “U” bolt into the housing and rotatethe nuts clockwise until finger tight.

Step 4.Alternate between tightening nuts untilproperly torqued. The torque should notexceed 15 lbs.-ft. (20 Nm) on pipe with a wallthickness less than Schedule 10, or 25 lbs.-ft.(34 Nm) for Schedule 10 and above.Overtorqueing can damage thin wall pipe andwill not increase sealing efficiency.
