The Model C-7 Outlet Coupling combines the features of a coupling and a reducing outlet. The C-7 is a joining device with an integral reducing outlet, eliminating the need for a mechanical tee or a reducing tee and couplings. The C-7 is available with grooved, male threaded or female threaded outlets. The C-7 coupling is recommended for fire sprinkler services and other applications up to 300 psi (20 Bar) depending on the size and schedule of pipe being used. The C-7 can be used for dry pipe systems or vacuum services up to -10 inHg or 254 mmHg which may occur when the system is drained. All Model C-7 couplings are comprised of an upper and lower ductile iron housings segment, EPDM rubber gasket and plated track bolts & nuts. Housings 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.
C-7 couplings should always be installed so that the coupling bolt pads make metal to metal contact.
