Shurjoint MODEL 7706 REDUCING COUPLING MODEL 7706 REDUCING COUPLING
The Model 7706 Reducing Coupling allows direct reduction on a piping run and eliminates the need for a concentric reducer and couplings. The specially designed rubber gasket prevents the smaller pipe from telescoping into the larger pipe during vertical installation. All 7706 couplings are comprised of two identical housing segments, EPDM rubber gasket and plated track bolts and nuts. Housing segments are supplied with our standard painted finishes, i.e. orange or RAL3000 red. Optional finishes such as hot dipped zinc galvanized and custom epoxy coatings are available.
7706 couplings should always be installed so that the coupling bolt pads make metal to metal contact.
The Model 7706 couplings must not be used with an end cap, as the end cap could be sucked into the pipe by the vacuum created when a system is being drained.
