Description
The JCM 452 heavy-duty stainless tapping sleeve uses thicker metal and extra bolting for reinforcement of the pipe and outlet, and a broad hydromechanical outlet seal gasket for high working pressures and problem taps such as pump and lift stations, large mains and large outlets.
JCM rates these sleeves for working pressures of 1.5 times the valves commonly used on ductile iron, PVC, PE and steel pipe, and prices the larger sizes below ductile iron MJ sleeves. The outlet is a 304 stainless flange to ANSI/AWWA C228 Class SD.
Typical application: Branching: line branches, valves, internal line access.
Key Features
- Flanged outlet recessed for the tapping valve per MSS-SP60
- Full sleeve reinforces the pipe; lighter than cast sleeves
- Rated 175 PSI on 2-12 in outlets (ANSI/AWWA C228)
- Meets MSS-SP124 and ANSI/AWWA C223 as applicable
What Ships and What It Needs to Run
Included: the sleeve halves with the gasket, bolts and nuts.
Tapping valve and tapping machine, ordered separately. A flanged tapping valve bolts to the outlet; size-on-size taps need a 1/2 in undersized shell cutter.
