    CI to DO connection

    Thanks guys. Bell clamps with tie rods is what I was thinking about. I did check with few reps and I think I will go with it. I can not recommend Megalug on CI just because it is not recommended by manufacturer and being engineer I can not s[ecify it on my sealed and signed drawings. And...

    CI to DO connection

    HI We have a sewer forcemain retrofit situation in which we are trying to connect ex. 24" CI pipe to new 24" DI pipe (force main with 50 psi pressure). We are using solid sleeve to connect the CI to DI pipe but want to restrain the whole assembly. I am aware that it is not possible to restrain...

    Steel coupling

    Sorry I was not clear... We are proposing MH on valve but since line is too deep don't want to include MJs within MH (from cost point of view) My question is...will Steel Coupler will do okay if it is buried from corrosion point of view Thanks

    Steel coupling

    We are inserting valve on 16" CI Sewer FM and proposing Style 62 Dresser coupling (CI to DI transition coupling) on each die of ex. FM. My question is if pipe line is buried then can I use Dresser Style 62 (Steel MJ adaptor) coupling. Would it be vulnurable to corrosion? Do I need to specify...
