The usage of pipe grooved ends joints

A grooved end joint is a mechanical connection,which has no welding or thread.It’s fromed with a grooved-end pipes,fittings or valves,and a victualic coupling (or Equal).

(The pipe end types of steel pipe and pipe fittings)

The coupling comprises three parts:gasket,housings,and bolts nuts.

The grooved steel pipes and pipe fittings means the steel pipes or pipe fittings have a groove on the ends,the groove couplings are used to connect the grooved pipes and fittings.

Flexible Grooved Pipe Couplings

The bolts and nuts are used to hold the housings together,they are tightened with a socket wrench or an impact wrench.The coupling housings engage the end grooves and encase the gasket around the circumference of the two pipes,it can bring a leak-tight seal in the pipe end joint.

There are two kinds of grooved coupling for different working conditions:

Rigid Grooved Couplings

Flexible grooved couplings– allow a limited amount of angular movement.

Rigid grooved couplings– do not allow movement and can be used wherever immobility in the pipe joint is needed,similar to a flanged or welded joint.

The mechnical tees or cross also can be used to connect the grooved steel pipes and pipe fittings.
