Grooved pipe fittings are a new type of steel pipe connection fittings, also known as clamp connections, which have many advantages.
Trench fittings include two major categories of products:
① The pipe fittings that serve as connections and seals include rigid joints, flexible joints, mechanical tees, and grooved flanges;
② The pipe fittings that play a transitional role in connection include elbows, tees, crosses, reducers, blind plates, etc.
The groove connecting pipe fittings that play a role in connecting and sealing mainly consist of three parts: sealing rubber rings, clamps, and locking bolts. The rubber sealing ring located on the inner layer is placed on the outer side of the connected pipeline and matches the pre rolled groove. Then, clamp the outer part of the rubber ring and tighten it with two bolts. Due to the unique sealable structural design of the rubber sealing ring and clamp, the groove connector has good sealing performance, and its sealing performance is correspondingly enhanced with the increase of fluid pressure in the pipe.
