KEY ALPHA COMPONENTS
ROTATING END RINGS
• During installation, the end rings rotate and slide the
draw hooks, gasket and grippers outward, against the
pipe surface.
INDIVIDUAL GRIPPERS
• Individual ductile iron grippers compensate for angular
deflection and out-of-round pipe.
• The grippers distribute the load evenly around the
pipe circumference.
