ALIgnMEnT EASE
The grooved system allows full rotation of the pipe and system components before tightening so that proper alignment can be achieved.
SYSTEM MAInTEnAncE AnD ExPAnSIOn
Coupling disassembly provides easy access for maintenance or system expansion. Victaulic butterfly valves provide “dead-end” shut-off service to isolate equipment.
FLExIBILITY
The Victaulic grooved-end solution accommodates expansion, contraction, or deflection and enables designing that takes advantage of these built-in system features.

Removal of two couplings permits removal of pipe section for replacement, cleaning or servicing. Facilitates easy future add-on, change or renovation of pipe to distribute internal wear from abrasives or slurries.

BenefitsofthegroovedsystemThe Victaulic grooved system for joining pipe is three to five times faster to install than welding and is easier and more reliable than threading or flanging pipe resulting in less installation time and easier replacement of piping components.
Plus, our new line of installation-ready couplings is twice as fast as existing grooved couplings. With no loose parts to disassemble, the coupling quickly stabs on to the pipe to create the most efficient joint on the market today.

On average, grooved-end pipe joining is three to five times faster than welding, flanging or threading, thereby reducing the number of project man-days and the risks associated with time on the job.
FAST, EFFIcIEnT PLAnT ScALABILITY
From Lab to Commercial scale plants, projects are completed faster than with traditional mechanical or welded piping systems, reducing downtime when expanding the system or conducting routine maintenance.
LOwER TOTAL cOST OF OwnERSHIP
A Victaulic piping system is easier to service and maintain than traditional piping systems, and can easily accommodate facility changes or expansion, thus saving time, labor and financial resources. Regardless of the size of the piping system, the Victaulic concept remains the same providing peace of mind when it comes to scalability.

Improvedsafety
“Since 1994, Gainesville Mechanical has experienced zero chargeable accidents while
using Victaulic product. Our EMR has been reduced from 1.6 in 1994 to as low as 0.86
with zero dollars attributable to accidents involving Victaulic systems. Gainesville has effectively reduced their Workmen’s Comp
premiums by 75% during this period. That’s a big difference.”
Refer to PB-306 “worksite Safety,” the brochure which explains how decreased exposure and increased safety impact the bottom line.
Visit www.victaulic.com/safety for more information.
Managing safety-related costs has become the number one priority for construction professionals, for good reason. According to Construction Industry Institute (CII) estimates, the total cost of construction-related injuries exceeds $17 billion annually. Owners realize that the cost of injuries is a major factor in their total cost of construction. Providing safety is a Victaulic core value. It means striving to provide the highest quality products that reduce or eliminate exposure.
DIREcT BEnEFITS:
The Victaulic grooved pipe joining method eliminates the safety concerns associated with open-flame pipe joining methods meaning workers are not exposed to damaging fumes and no costly fire watch is necessary.
InDIREcT BEnEFITS:
Victaulic provides construction solutions that consistently cut down the number of man-hours needed per job. The shortened installation time—up to 3 to 5 times faster to install than threaded, welded or flanged systems—reduces total exposure on the job.
nO FLAME jOInIng METHOD
With no flame or joint compounds involved and less time needed for installation of Victaulic joining products, personnel have fewer personal risks and exposure on the job. Plus, Victaulic “installation-ready” technology means no loose parts to drop.

REDUcE cARBOn EMISSIOnS wITH vIcTAULIc SOLUTIOnS
By-products of weld and solder fumes can contain lead oxide, carbon monoxide, VOCs and hydrochloric acid in addition to many other harmful particles and gases. Reducing the particulate matter preserves indoor-and-outdoor air quality leading to a safe and healthy environment. Victaulic no-weld pipe joining method eliminates these harmful airborne pollutants normally emitted into the environment during the welding process.
Contact Victaulic for a free emission reduction assessment.
ELIMInATED 145 METRIc TOnS OF AIRBORnE POLLUTAnTS = 1 MILLIOn cARS
In 2007 alone, the use of Victaulic grooved mechanical pipe couplings in lieu of welding reduced airborne weld emissions—which is equivalent to eliminating the airborne pollution of 1 million cars on the road for a month. The elimination of these harmful pollutants means less airborne pollution providing for a more sustainable environment, but also a safer job site during construction, maintenance or retrofit work.
