The Series 1600 is designed for restraining push-on, C900 PVC pipe bells. It has a
split, serrated restraint ring on the spigot
and a split non-serrated ring behind the
bell.
1. Assemble the push-on joint per the
pipe manufacturer’s instructions.
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
60 ft-lbs torque (110 ft-lbs on 8 inch,
10 inch and 12 inch).
2. Install both halves of the non-serrated bell ring around the pipe behind
the bell. Install the side bolts and
tighten each to 60 ft-lbs (110 ft-lbs
on 8 inch, 10 inch and 12 inch).
3. Slide the bell ring toward the bell so
that it ts snugly behind the bell.
6. Place nuts on the tie bolts and
tighten until they are snug. Allow
enough room on the tie bolt to fully
engage the nut with several threads
showing. Do not tighten these bolts
enough to force the spigot further
into the bell of the joint.
4. Remove the side bolts from the serrated restraint ring. Use the tie bolts
to determine the proper location of
the restraint ring on the spigot. Allow
enough room on the tie bolt to fully
engage the nuts.
