Installation Instructions

1. The Series 1500 is designed for restraining push-on PVC pipe bells. It has a split, serrated restraint ring on the spigot and a split serrated ring behind the bell.

2. Assemble the push-on joint per the pipe manufacturer’s instructions.

3. Install both halves of the serrated ring around the pipe behind the bell, tapping each half into place. Make sure that the complete ID of the ring is touching the pipe before installing the side bolts. Install the side bolts and tighten evenly to 110 ft-lbs. of torque. (60 ft-lbs on 4 inch and 6 inch)

NOTE: Dimensions are in inches and are subject to change without notice.

4. Remove the side bolts from the second serrated restraint ring. Use the Thrust Bolts to determine the proper location of the restraint ring on the spigot. Allow enough room on the thrust bolt to fully engage the nuts.

5. Install both halves of the restraint ring at the proper location, tapping each half into place. Make sure that the complete ID of the ring is touching the pipe before installing the side bolts. Tighten the side bolts evenly to 110 ft-lbs. (60 ft-lbs on 4” and 6”)

6. Place nuts on the thrust bolts and tighten until they are snug. Allow enough room on the thrust bolts to fully engage the nuts. Do

not tighten these bolts enough to force the spigot further into the bell of the joint.
