Flexmaster Joints
Flexmaster joints are available in both standard and selfrestrained styles. The self-restrained style has a stainless steel gripping ring inside each gasket. This feature allows the joint to maintain a firm grip on the pipe or tube, preventing movement along the pipe or tube.
The bulged, straight-through Flexmaster joints accommodate angular misalignment up to ±4º per end. Tees, elbows, and crosses accommodate angular misalignment up to ±2o per end. Flexmaster joints are designed for up to 300 psi (2.07 MPa) service, depending on application and size.
Flexmaster joints absorb vibration and are ideal for making quick connections and disconnections when repairing or disassembling a system. They can be furnished with several types of gasket compounds and sleeve materials, including stainless steel for marine and corrosive applications.
Standard Features
1. Gasket provides compression seal when tightened against tube or pipe.
2. Hinged coupling provides for quick, easy assembly.
3. Bulged sleeve allows for ±4º angular misalignment. All gasket materials listed on page 4 are available in the standard style, increasing the number of suitable applications.
Self-Restrained Features
1. Gasket provides compression seal when tightened against tube or pipe.
2. Hinged coupling provides for quick, easy assembly.
3. Bulged sleeve allows for ±4º angular misalignment.
4. Notched channel ring which grips pipe firmly to restrict movement along pipe or tubing.
Gasket materials available include the C (Buna-N) and D (EPDM) compounds.
