It is recommended to tighten all bolts on one coupling to the same torque, which keeps the tightening process simple and guarantees consistent air- and water-tightness across the entire joint.<\/p>\n<p>The improved clamps will be a feature of all Flexseal\u2019s couplings of 600mm diameter and above, including the standard LC, Extra Wide and Magnum ranges and will be supplied with a free of charge 3\/8\u201d square drive with 6mm hex head.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur product development team are always looking for ways to solve issues on site for contractors, whether by designing entirely new and unique products or by updating products in our current range,\u201d concluded Riding. \u201cThis is another example of how we\u2019re constantly moving our range forward to give contractors the best pipe connection products possible.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Quicker installation for large diameter couplings on site is now a reality due to product improvements by Flexseal. \u201cWe have upgraded the bolting mechanism on these couplings so that they can be installed using either a ratchet torque wrench or drill, for faster tightening,\u201d explained Steve Riding, Flexseal\u2019s Commercial Director, who is responsible for product development.
