The Dresser Style 160 Bell Joint Clamp is the heavy-duty solution for sealing leaking bell joints on large-diameter cast iron and ductile iron pipe. Where the standard Style 60 addresses typical water main sizes, the Style 160 is engineered for the larger nominal pipe diameters found in transmission mains, large distribution systems, and industrial water service. Its robust construction handles the greater circumferential forces involved in sealing large pipe bells, and its design delivers the same field-proven reliability that defines the Dresser bell joint clamp product family.

Key Features
