Application:
Designed to join two pieces of pipe together. The two pipes are butted to one
another each pipe has a groove that runs the circumference of the pipe exterior.
The grooved clamp has ridges that lock into the two pipe grooves and a gasket
is compressed to the pipes to create a leak-tight seal.Grooved clamps are often
used on pipe connections on dry bulk tankers in place of welding offering the abil-
ity to adjust, change or replace pipe sections without the need for a permanent
joint such as a weld.
Standards:
Manufactured to fit new and existing grooved pipe connections
Materials:
Aluminum or coated ductile iron bodies with steel bolts/nuts, Buna or Viton
®
seals
Features & Benefits:
•
Rugged cast aluminum or iron construction
•
Maintenance is easy to perform
Features:
•
Lightweight yet rugged. Unlike steel groove clamps that secure the pipe ends with high
clamping force against the tubing/piping walls, the Dixon aluminum bolted clamp takes the
full bolt force and locks into the groove of the tube/pipe, preventing distortion of the tube/pipe
diameter.
•
precision casting and machined dimensions provide an exact fit and great appearance
•
lock nuts prevent loosening in applications with vibration
•
white Buna seal available for food applications
