Series 2000PV:
Mechanical Joint Restraint Gland for use With AWWA C900 or IPS Outside Diameter PVC Pipe

The 2000PV MEGALUG Mechanical Joint Restraint
is the fastest and most economical method of
restraining PVC pipe to mechanical joints. Now the
need for costly concrete thrust blocks and corrodible
steel tie rods is eliminated. It can be used in straight

alignment or at the preset deection recommended

for mechanical joints.

The 2000PV was the rst PVC joint restraint to be

tested to UNI-B-13, Underwriters Laboratories, and
Factory Mutual.

The 2000PV MEGALUG Concept

EBAA Iron started manufacturing joint restraint
products for PVC pipe in the early 1980s. The testing

of early prototypes of various congurations of

restraints on large diameter PVC pipe indicated that a
restraint device must be capable of consistently and
reliably gripping the pipe. If not, the restraint can slip
under pressure, resulting in a sudden impact, and
cause the pipe to burst. Armed with this background
knowledge and an appreciation for the capabilities of
PVC pipe, EBAA purposefully deviated from what many
in the industry once considered to be the ‘only’ way to
grip PVC pipe. This led to development of the Series

Tested to and meets the requirements of ASTM F
1674-96 ‘Standard’ Test Method for joint restraint
products use with PVC pipe through 24 inch size.

UL Listed in the four through twelve inch sizes for

joining UL Listed ductile iron ttings to UL Listed,

Class 150 PVC pressure pipe. The maximum allowable

joint deection is ve degrees.

Factory Mutual approved for use on DR18 PVC pipe in
four through twelve inch sizes.

2000PV MEGALUG Mechanical Joint Restraint for PVC
pipe.

The design of the 2000PV incorporates the gripping
mechanism into the design of the mechanical
joint gland and utilizes a simple two part assembly

process. The rst step involves assembling the

joint the same as any standard mechanical joint.
The assembly procedure we recommend is that
established in AWWA C600. The second is the
actuation of the restraint.
