Warranty Statement
Georg Fischer Central Plastics, LLC. (GFCP), extends this Warranty to immediate purchasers of GFCP products
(“Purchasers”). This warranty is extended only to such immediate Purchasers; it may not be passed along to any
subsequent purchaser or assignee.
GFCP warrants that its products are, on the date of shipment, free from defects in materials and workmanship and
have been manufactured in accordance with GFCP’s material specifications. GFCP will replace or, at its option,
issue credit for any GFCP products which are found by GFCP to be defective or not in conformity with such material
specifications. This warranty does not apply to a product that has been subjected to: (a) improper storage or
installation; (b) accident, damage, abuse, or misuse; (c) abnormal or unusual operating conditions or applications;
(d) operating conditions or applications not made known to GFCP prior to the date of sale of the product; (e)
operating conditions or applications above the rated capacity of the product; or (f) a purpose or application in any
way different from that for which the product was designed.
Purchaser Responsibilities & Claims Processing
Purchaser must carefully inspect each GFCP fitting and laboratory test the product to ensure that it performs
satisfactorily for its intended use. Every claim under this warranty shall be deemed waived unless Purchaser has
made such careful inspection and laboratory testing, and unless written notice of defect or nonconformity of the
product is made and received by GFCP within 30 days of the date the defect or nonconformity was or should have
been discovered and in any event within six months of the date the product was shipped. Within two weeks of the
date written notice of the defect or nonconformity is received by GFCP and within six months of the date the product
is shipped, Purchaser must return the defective or nonconforming product to GFCP’s actual possession under a
GFCP Return Material Authorization number (RMA#).
Within a reasonable time after GFCP receives the returned product, GFCP will reasonably determine if the alleged
defect or nonconformity actually exists, and will notify the Purchaser of its determination. Within a reasonable time
thereafter, GFCP shall replace any defective nonconforming product with non-defective product of like quantity or at
its option, issue credit for such defective or nonconforming product.
Disclaimer of Warranties
The Warranty provided above is strictly limited to its terms and is in lieu of all other warranties, expressed, implied
and statutory. GFCP specifically disclaims any implied warranties of merchantability or fitness for particular
purpose.
Purchaser specifically understands and agrees that GFCP, its successors, assigns, directors, officers, agents and
employees, shall not be liable in tort-whether based on negligence, strict liability, or any other theory of tort liabilityfor any action or failure to act in respect to the manufacture, preparation for sale, sale, delivery or use of GFCP
products. It is the parties’ intent to absolve and protect GFCP and GFCP’s successors, assigns, directors,
officers, agents and employees from any and all tort liability.
Purchaser expressly agrees that his sole and exclusive remedy for breach of the warranty set forth above, for
any tortuous conduct, or for any other cause of action, shall be the remedies set forth above. Purchaser further
specifically understands and agrees that, except as provided, no remedy shall be available to purchaser, including, but limited to, claims for incidental, consequential, special or punitive damages, for any cause whatsoever,
or injury to or death of persons or damage to property or any other consequential economic or incidental loss.
Under no circumstances will GFCP be liable for loss of anticipated profits or any other loss caused by reason of
the non-operation of the increased expense or operation caused by GFCP’s products. This exclusion shall
apply to all claims, whether sounding in tort, contract or otherwise and shall apply to all damages.

design factor of 0.63, a fabricated elbow built with 11.250 mitered segments produced using SDR-11
200 psi material would be pressure rated for a working pressure of 160 psi).
Fully pressure rated mitered fabricated fittings will be constructed using a heavier SDR material (ie: a
fabricated elbow built with 11.250 mitered segments rated for SDR-11 200 psi working pressure rating
would be manufactured using SDR-9 material).
Other fabricated fittings such as branch saddle tees, branch saddle wyes, fabricated concentric reducers and waterstops are normally pressure rated to the SDR ordered.
Fabricated fittings are stocked in most SDR’s listed.
Re-machining of the ends of a fabricated fitting to a lesser SDR may require additional machining
charges. Please inquire for pricing information if Re-machining of ends is necessary.
Design-Flow Bolt Rings:
Bolt Rings are normally stocked only in most frequently used sizes and pressure ratings.
Molded Fittings:
Molded fittings are stocked in most SDR’s listed and are normally fully pressure rated.
Re-machining ends of molded fittings will require an additional charge. Please inquire for Quick Quote
if re-machining of ends is necessary.
Resale Items:
Resale items (i.e.: back up rings, drive-in stiffeners, gland packs, transition fittings) are normally stocked
only in most frequently used sizes and pressure ratings. More information regarding resale items may
be obtained through our Customer Service Department.

Re-rated Fitting WPR’s using PE4710 with a 0.63 DF
HDPE pipe and fittings made from PE4710 resins have a WPR based on a 0.63 design factor in
approved applications, thus giving a higher WPR than obtained using a 0.50 design factor as is used
with PE3608 resins (also see page 1-1 of this catalog). As shown below with pipe, using a 0.63 DF
results in a higher pressure rating. This increase in WPR has pushed fitting manufacturers to reevaluate the percentage of re-rate used for certain types of fabricated fittings. Fitting groups requiring the
WPR to be re-rated are listed below. The WPR’s are listed by DR for each of these fitting groups based
on a design factor of 0.63. Fittings not listed below are rated at the same WPR as the pipe DR itself and
are indicated as such in this catalog unless noted otherwise.

Sizing Sytems Information:
Iron Pipe Sizes (IPS) - Ductile Iron Pipe Sizes (DIPS)
Copper Tube Sizes (CTS) - Metric Sizes (ISO)
Imperial sized thermoplastic pipe is made to three dimensioning systems based on controlled outside diameter.
These pipes have a controlled outside-diameter equal to those of commercial IPS wrought steel pipe (steel pipe
sizes) specified by ANSI B36.10, ductile-iron pipe sizes specified in AWWA C151, and small diameter coppertube-size (CTS) per ASTM B88. Please see the following page for information regarding Metric (ISO) sizes.
Controlled outside diameter pipes are manufactured to the stated OD’s below, but with the pipe walls sized in
accordance with the Dimension-Ratio (DR) principle whereby all pipe sizes in the same DR series have the same
ratio of OD to minimum wall thickness. All pipe sizes of the same material and constant DR series have the same
working pressure rating and pipe stiffness.

Metric (ISO) Sized HDPE Pipe
& HDPE Fabricated Fittings
Metric OD HDPE piping is available although custom tooling may be required. Metric sized
HDPE machined and fabricated fittings are also available. Most sizes can be machined to
dimension for reducers, flange adapters, water stops and mj adapters. Metric fabricated fittings
such as tees, ells, wyes & crosses are made by using IPS and DIPS fittings and fusing a reducer
or expander matched to the butt fusion end of the pipeline. Certain sizes of mitered fittings can
be produced using metric sized pipe although custom inserts may be required.

DESIGN-FLOW® HDPE Pipe - General Information
Weatherability
PE3608 (prev. PE3408) Material Designation
Georg Fischer Central Plastics (GFCP) black polyethylene pipe, PE3408/PE3608/PE4710, is protected
against degradation by a combination of stabilizers and
carbon black. The pipe formulation contains in excess
of 2% carbon black imparting the black color as well as
effective protection from ultraviolet radiation. Carbon black
is the single most effective additive to enhance weatherability in Independent Pipe Product’s polyethylene pipe.
Weatherability studies indicate that carbon black imparts UV stability that makes our polyethylene pipe
acceptable for normal outside storage for a period of
years without a detrimental loss of physical properties.
Good inventory practices should be maintained to insure optimum performance by installing the pipe in two
years or less. If pipe must be stored for more than two
years, it should be stored under cover, out of direct sunlight.
Materials designated as PE3608 have a hydrostatic design basis of 1600 psi for water at 73o F. After applying
the 0.5 Design Factor, the design working stress for 73o
F is 800 psi.
Joining
PE4710 (prev. PE3408) Material Designation
Materials designated as PE4710 have a hydrostatic design basis of 1600 psi for water at 73o F. After applying
the 0.63 Design Factor, the design working stress for
73o F is 1000 psi. PE4710 has higher performance as
described in PPI’s TN41.
Pressure Ratings
The longevity of polyethylene pipe is calculated between
50 years to 100 years when properly engineered and
installed for the conditions and application. Pressure
ratings for polyethylene pipe are determined by use of the ISO
equation:
P = [(2xHDB)/(SDR-1)] x DF x F
T
Industry standards recommend the butt heat fusion
method for joining. The butt heat fusion joints are as Where P = Working pressure of the pipeline
strong as the pipe wall itself. Quick bursts tests have
HDB = Hydrostatic Design Basis of the material
shown ductile rupture of the pipe wall before rupture of
1600 psi for PE 3408, PE3608 or PE4710
the fusion joint.
SDR = Standard Dimension Ratio (OD/min wall)
DF = Design Factor
Applications
GFCP is well qualified to meet the demanding needs of
FT = Elevated temperature service factor

Pressure Ratings are calculated using 0.63 design factor for HDS at 73°F as listed in PPI TR-4 for PE4710 materials. Temperature, chemical,
and environmental use considerations may require use of additional design factors. Pipe weights are calculated in accordance with PPI
TR-7. Average inside diameter is calculated with nominal OD and minimum wall thickness plus 6%. Actual ID’s will vary and are controlled
by the dimensions and tolerances listed in the applicable pipe specifications.
Pipe OD (inches)
Per AWWA C906, the working pressure rating equals the pressure
DR=
Minimum Wall Thickness (inches)
class, with an allowance included in the WPR for pressure surge.
The pressure and surge design basis for polyethylene pipe is The Long-Term Hydrostatic Strength of PE4710 Polyethylene Pipe is
different from the PVC and DI pipe design basis. For DR’s not listed 1600 psi at 73.4 F. All pipe sizes with the same DR and Long Term
Hydrostatic Strength will have equal operating pressure capability.

Pressure Ratings are calculated using 0.63 design factor for HDS at 73°F as listed in PPI TR-4 for PE4710 materials. Temperature, chemical,
and environmental use considerations may require use of additional design factors. Pipe weights are calculated in accordance with PPI
TR-7. Average inside diameter is calculated with nominal OD and minimum wall thickness plus 6%. Actual ID’s will vary and are controlled
by the dimensions and tolerances listed in the applicable pipe specifications.
Pipe OD (inches)
Per AWWA C906, the working pressure rating equals the pressure
DR=
Minimum Wall Thickness (inches)
class, with an allowance included in the WPR for pressure surge.
The pressure and surge design basis for polyethylene pipe is The Long-Term Hydrostatic Strength of PE4710 Polyethylene Pipe is
different from the PVC and DI pipe design basis. For DR’s not listed 1600 psi at 73.4 F. All pipe sizes with the same DR and Long Term
Hydrostatic Strength will have equal operating pressure capability.

Calculation of Fusion Gage Pressure
for Hydraulic Fusion Machines
When calculating the recommended hydraulic pressure shown on the pressure gage, the manufacturer for the specific machine in use should be consulted. In order to calculate the required hydraulic gage pressure the fusion
machine effective hydraulic piston area must be known.
CALCULATION:
Hydraulic Gauge
Pressure (psi)
Where:
a
OD
ID
IP
Piston Area
*Drag Factor
[
.785 x (OD2 - ID2) x IP.
=
Piston Area
]
+ Drag Factor
= Pipe outside diameter (in)
= Pipe inside diameter (in)
= Interfacial pressure required (75 psi)
= Total hydraulic piston area (in 2)
= Hydraulic gage pressure required to move
the pipe and carriage / clamp. 30 psi is
generally accepted as a minimum.
* The drag factor is an important parameter easily overlooked. If two long
pieces of pipe are being fused, the drag factor can easily reach much higher
pressures.

Butt Fusion Procedure & Qualification
Butt Fusion Procedure for PE3408 / PE3608 / PE4710 Pipe and Fittings
1. Clean inside and outside of each pipe end with a clean cloth.
2. Place pipe and/or butt fitting ends into the proper alignment device. Square (normally by facing) the
end of each pipe to be fused.
3. Check alignments of pipe ends and adjust. Check for voids and gaps. Check heater plate using a
pyrometer for proper surface temperature of 400o F- 425o F (-0o/+25o). Insure heater surface is
clean using only a clean cotton cloth, avoid fabric materials that melt and stick to heater plates.
4. Insert heater plate between aligned ends and bring ends firmly in contact with plate, but DO NOT
APPLY PRESSURE while achieving melt pattern. Watch for proper melt bead (see table below).
5. Remove heater plate after achieving proper melt bead.
6. Bring melted ends together rapidly. DO NOT SLAM. Apply enough pressure* to form a uniform,
double rollback bead around entire circumference of the joint.
7. Allow the fusion joint to cool properly (until comfortable to the touch) while maintaining pressure.

Additional Tips To Insure A Quality Butt Fusion
• A quality butt fusion joint has a double bead rolled back to the OD body of the pipe.
• Use caution when handling completed fusion joints until joint has cooled to ambient temperature.
• * Recommended interfacial pressure is 75-psi (+/- 5 psi). ( PPI Report TR-33 cites 60 psi - 90 psi range )
Fusion Equipment & Operator Qualification
Qualification of operator and equipment occurs when the heat fusion operator has been trained in the
proper steps of PPI’s TR-33 Butt Fusion, and then demonstrates mastery of the fusion equipment and
the IPPI endorsed fusion procedures consistently. If desired, the project specific fusion procedure(s)
may be recorded and documented for each joint either manually, or, electronically by using available
data logging type devices.
Fusion Joint Validation
Attempts at fusion joint validation testing have provided mixed results with today’s modern materials.
The only short term validation tests IPPI accepts are ASTM D-1599, Quick-Burst Hydro-testing, and
ASTM D1598, Constant Pressure Testing at Elevated Temperature.

Sidewall Fusion Procedure
PE3408 / PE3608 / PE4710 Sidewall Fusion Procedure
1. Install fusion machine on the main pipe.
2. Clean the pipe with a clean cotton cloth. Rough the surface with 60 grit or coarser utility cloth. Brush
away residue with a clean, dry rag after abrading. ( Do not use sand paper. )
3. Clean and rough the saddle base of tee (side fitting) with 60 grit or coarser utility cloth. Brush away
residue with a clean, dry rag after abrading.
4. Align fitting on main and tighten clamp (insert adapter) on fitting stem while applying slight pressure
on movable clamp handle.
5. Check saddle for square alignment on main.
6. Clean face of heater adapters with a clean cotton cloth.* Check heater plates for proper surface
temperature of 475o F - 500o F. Raise movable clamp with fitting. Roll in and center heater plate
with adapter between base of fitting and main.
7. For all sizes, apply an adequate and uniform pressure until continuous melt bead can be seen on
main. Reduce pressure to light pressure; continue heat soak cycle on fitting and main; and, watch
base of fitting for the appropriate melt bead to be visible completely around the base of the fitting
and on the main around the heating iron base;

9. Bring melted surfaces together rapidly and smoothly. Apply continuous progressive pressure until
proper fusion bead is formed. Maintain pressure until joint has cooled (until comfortable to the
touch).
( For additional information, refer to PPI Report TR41. )
REMEMBER:
•Install proper sidewall and fitting inserts in fusion unit for the pipe and fittings being joined.
•Be sure correct sidewall adapters are installed on heater plate.
•A quality side fusion joint has a uniform, well-aligned appearance all around.
•Heater plate should be checked periodically with a pyrometer for correct surface temperature (475o F - 500o F ).
* Avoid materials that melt and stick to heater plates.

HDPE Butterfly Valve Flange & Spacer
Design Information
When the butterfly valve disc rotates, it can hit the ID edge of the standard flange
adapter. In the past, valve spacer rings have been used. Today, Independent Pipe
Products can make and deliver a modified, one-piece flange adapter with an integral,
extra-thick flange face internally machined to allow full disc opening.
Included on the following page is design data and pricing for IPPI’s standard Butterfly
Flange Adapters 4” through 12” IPS. For sizes not listed please call for the design,
quote, and delivery.
Butterfly Valve
Corner Chamfer
To Clear Rotating
Disc
HDPE Flange Adapter
Customized, Extra-Thick
Flange Face
Design Data Needed:
Specific valve information including the manufacturer, model number, disc diameter, valve
width face to face and stem location (center line location or offset location). For sizes not
listed in our catalog butterfly flange adpter design is availble, charges are based on an hourly
rate for engineering services. Please contact customer service for more details.
Warning & Disclaimer:
Butterfly flange adapters should always be trial fit to the actual valve and then field tested
for valve disk clearance and full rotation prior to butt fusion of the flange to the pipeline.
After butt fusion and bolt up of flange repeat this trial at each occurrence to insure final
install is properly centered thus again allowing valve disk clearance and full rotation.
The above requirement insures proper valve operation prior to burial and also will identify
unexpected situations including valve design changes or valve substitutions at the project.
GFCP cannot be held responsible for valve interference with the butterfly flange adapter or
for any related excavation costs.

IPS or DIPS Butterfly Valve Spacers
For Use With HDPE Flange Adpaters
(Dimensions in Inches)
As the butterfly valve wafer rotates, it will hit the ID of the standard Flange Adapter. GFCP can machine custom Flange Adapters to avoid using spacers and provide for full butterfly valve
operating (see next page). Valve spacers are used to offset
the standard HDPE flange face to provide for full wafer rotation, when customized flanges have not been ordered. Be
sure to double check the standard spacer thickness is sufficient for the exact butterfly valve being used, by doing a simple
dimensional layout.

For larger diameter valve-spacers - Call For Quick Quote
Refer to next page for modified flange adapters that avoid use of spacer rings.
For larger valve spacers the following information is needed: width of valve from face to face, diameter of butterfly wafer and the location of the butterfly wafer stem (center stem or otherwise). All nonstock fabricated fittings are produced to order and are noncancelable and nonreturnable.

These HDPE blind flanges are ordinarily used for closure or night-capping of flanged pipes. They are
NOT fully pressure rated. Without the use of a metal back up blind flange, the HDPE flange may leak
between bolt-holes at moderate pressures.

Bolt Rings
U.S. Patent # 7,401,821
Designed Specifically for use
with HDPE Flange Adapters*
ASME / ANSI B16.5, B16.47Ser.A CL150
B16.1 CL125 AWWA C207 B,D & E
Design Information
Van Stone Style Flanges have been used for decades in the USA. The
typical polyethylene flange adapter has a Van-Stone style flange with slip-on
bolt-ring. Our Design-Flow ® Bolt Ring is engineered specifically for Polyethylene Flange Adapters. Design-Flow ® Bolt Rings meet the standard bolt circle
dimensional specifications of ASME / ANSI B16.5 CL 150, B16.47 Ser. A CL 150, B16.1- CL 125; AWWA C207 - CL 150 / B, D & E. Design-Flow Bolt
Rings are produced in ductile iron and stainless steel (Ductile Iron A536 65/
45/12, 316 Stainless Steel A351-CF8M). Our ductile iron Bolt Rings are
stocked with an oil based enamel painted surface (IPS sizes stocked in bright
red, DIPS sizes stocked in aqua blue). Many more coating choices are available that provide superior cathodic protection depending on the specific needs
of the project. Additional surface coating choices include epoxy based paints;
fusion bonded epoxies; hot dip galvanizing and other electrostatically applied
surface treatments.
Our Design-Flow ® Bolt Ring is so unique in its novel design that it has
earned U.S. Patent # 7,401,821 status based, in principle, on its strong, tough,
ductile and constant sealing design. Its contoured cross-section enables ring
deformation which provides a constant sealing force. Our Design-Flow ® Bolt
Ring is stronger; being able to accept more bolt torque (sealing load) than
other previous designs. At these higher bolt torques, rubber gaskets are not
required, which results in more secure sealing and reduced assembly costs.
Our Design-Flow ® Bolt Ring has a beveled bolt surface which is drawn into
parallel with the flange face when the proper bolt torque is applied. This bolt
ring deflection is more effective in placing the sealing force closer to the pipe
OD and more uniformly distributing that higher force across the flange face.
Unlike previous industry designs, Design-Flow ® Bolt Rings “seal from the inside out” !
Our Design-Flow ® Bolt Ring design places more metal in optimized locations to make the bolt ring stronger resulting in a shorter outer perimeter
plane. Design-Flow ® Bolt Rings are designed for working pressure ratings
ranging from 50 psi up to 275 psi in many sizes. Please consult this catalog
sectional 1.3.B1 or our Customer Service Department for more information
regarding our Design-Flow ® Bolt Rings.

Flange assembly should be square, perpendicular, concentric and axially in contact
with the mating flange, prior to applying sealing torque.
Tighten bolts in an alternating “star pattern” in numerical order as shown in illustration
below.
Tighten bolts uniformly in even increments, raising the torque intensity in “steps”,
uniform “steps” or “levels” are generally 20% increments of total torque value.
Torque all bolts uniformly to the first level before progressing to the next higher level of
uniform bolt torque.
Hydro-test to insure no leaks exist, retighten as needed.

Bolt Torque Test On
Design-Flow® Bolt Rings &
HDPE Flange Adapters
Technical Report: Bolt-Torque Tests on IPPI Bolt-Rings & HDPE Flange Adapters
The compressive sealing stress applied by the IPPI bolt rings onto the HDPE flange face through bolt torque, is
targeted at 1100 psi initial interfacial pressure, before viscoelastic stress relaxation occurs. The bolt ring and
HDPE flange assembly have been tested to evaluate effective sealing across a wide range of operational pressure
with surge allowance, and over a wide range of thermal conditions. The threaded carbon steel or stainless steel
bolts (or all-thread studs) are expected to be of SAE Grade 2 to SAE Grade 5 tensile strength. The bolts tested
were reasonably clean, oiled and not rusted. Every flange assembly should be installed square, perpendicular,
concentric and axially in contact with the mating flange, prior to applying sealing torque. The bolts were tightened
in an alternating “star pattern”. The bolts were tightened uniformly in even increments, raising the torque intensity
in “steps”, with all bolts torqued uniformly to the first level before progressing to the next higher level of uniform bolt
torque. The IPPI thick face flanges and bolt rings were hydro-tested at the torque listed below, and proven to seal
effectively. The 4 x WPR hydro-tests were conducted successfully on flat face, and serrated face, HDPE flange
adapters without gaskets. The IPPI bolt rings have also been tested to a 25% higher maximum bolt torque than
listed without bolt ring fracture; tested maximum torque was well above the useful sealing bolt torque.

PLEASE NOTE: Torque is an indirect indicator of tensile load in the bolt itself.
With several
variables involved in the assembly, bolting and flange sealing process; the bolt torque test values
presented above were considered as a guideline only. For example, compare the compressive
differences of a plastic to plastic connection verses a plastic to steel connection. It is the responsibility of the project “engineer of record” to establish the bolt torque and assembly requirements for each specific flange assembly design. A large torque wrench is specified.

Concentric Reducer Design Information
Concentric reducers provide an in-line conical transition between pressurized pipes
of differing diameters. A reducer may be a single standard diameter change (i.e., 6"
x 4”) or a multiple diameter change (i.e., 8" x 2”). The pipes do not have a “ brain”
and do not recognize what the outside configuration of the reducer looks like. The
pipe flow is only affected by the inside diameter conical transition configuration.
Hence, the inside diameter conical transition can be axially moved and externally reconfigured to provide for more economical reducer fittings as follows. All three
designs have the same ID flow shape, but the “Compact” and “Low Cost
Compact” cost savings are passed onto you!
Higher Cost Reducer
The “Traditional” reducer has three
sections:
1. Large end to clamp for heat buttfusion.
2. Conical transition section.
3. Small end to clamp for heat buttfusion.
The “Compact” reducer has two sections:
1. Large end to hold for heat butt-fusion.
2. Small end to hold for heat butt-fusion.
Economical “Compact” Reducer
“Low Cost Compact” Reducer
Note: The same conical transition zone has
been moved forward within the reducer.
The “Low Cost Compact” reducer has
one section. This reducer is held on the
large end and heat-fused to the large
pipe. The assembly is moved to the other
fusion machine jaws and the small end is
heat fused to the small pipe. Note: The
same conical transition zone is kept within
the fitting.

Multistage pipe reducers connect pipes of measurably different diameters. Instead of
using a 12" x 10” fused to a 10" x 8" fused to an 8"x 10” reducer assembly, we fabricate
a custom 12"x 6” reducer as a single component. This greatly saves on part cost and
fusion cost! The following is a partial listing of our capabilities:

IPS or DIPS Fabricated Eccentric Reducers
Pressure ratings will vary depending on specifications
Many gravity flow and drainage pipelines require a uniform line and grade. To achieve this, the
engineers and designers specify eccentric reducers. This keeps the pipe invert at the same
level or slope along the pipeline length.
Based on the permutation and combination of possible diameters, eccentric reducers are
quoted for each inquiry or project. These fittings are quite popular for gravity flow sewers with
multiple lateral sewer inlets or outlets.

Branch Saddle Design Information
Fully Pressure-Rated Branch-Saddle Fittings
A pipe having a branch outlet connection is weakened by the opening that must be made in it. Unless the wall
thickness of the pipe is sufficiently in excess of that required to sustain the full pressure, it is necessary to provide
added reinforcement. The amount of added reinforcement required to sustain the pressure is governed by the area
replacement method. Basically, the volume of the pipe-wall coupon from the hole for the branch is replaced by
added volume and mass in critical zones around the branch outlet. This methodology is detailed in ASME Code for
Pressure Piping B31.3 “Process Piping” section #304.3.2 and #304.3.3. Where the 800 psi hoop-stress of the
branch outlet and the 800 psi hoop-stress of the main pipe meet at the joint intersection, extra material must be
added to reduce the intensified stress in the joint to the allowable 800 psi long term stress.
ASME B31.3-1996 Edition
BRANCH CONNECTION NOMENCLATURE
Tests conducted on non-reinforced branch connections proves that the branch outlets in line tees and reducing
tees are generally reduced in strength by about 45% depending on the ratio of the pipe diameters.

Branch Saddle Heater Plate Information
Most common branch saddles are produced by machining a branch of a molded tee. Their
reinforcement is meant for that size on size tee! It was not engineered to meet all reducing outlet
tee design combinations. For example, using the area or volume replacement method of
ASMEB31.3 for reinforcement, the borehole mass drilled from a 24" DR-11 pipe wall for a 2"
outlet, is about 6.5 cubic inches. The muff area around the 2" tee-type branch-saddle is not
nearly 6.5 cu. in. Thus the 2" tee-type branch-saddle on a 24 “ DR-11 pipe is not fully pressure
rated. The muff reinforcement of the 2” branch saddle has sufficient mass on it to fully pressurerate 3" x 2", 4" x 2" and 6" x 2" reducing tee. Above 6" mains, the 2" saddle reinforcement does
not fully replace the mass of the pipe wall removed for the outlet hole. Each branch saddle
reinforcement should be reviewed for its capacity to replace the mass of the hole drilled through
the specified pipe-main in order to maintain a full working pressure rating.
The Massive Branch Saddles (MBS) of the DIPS sizes are engineered to cover a wide range of
reducing outlets through 24" DIPS pipe mains. The mass of the base reinforcement exceeds the
mass of the hole cut from the main to which it will be fused. Thus the full pressure rating is
preserved.
Most contractors wish to use the same heater plates that they now have. This is accomplished by
jumping one base size or diameter compared to the outlet diameter, starting with the 4" outlets.
For example, to fuse on a 4" DIPS outlet, investigate using the 6" IPS or 6" DIPS concave/convex
heater plate set. To fuse on an 8" DIPS outlet, investigate using a 10" IPS or 8" DIPS heater
plate set. Contact your fusion equipment manufacturer to record below, the following Heater

IPS & DIPS Tapping Sleeve / Saddle Assembly
Full Pressure Rated - MSS SP-60 & AWWA C906 Compliant
“SaddleFusion”
Joint
The normal method of field tapping a mainline
is to apply a tapping saddle and tap through
HDPE Pipe
Main (shown
the tapping valve into the main, remove the
for clarity)
cutter and coupon and close the valve. It is
H
advantageous to fabricate a branch saddle
fused to a flange adapter with a one-piece
metal back up ring captured between, this has
been done for years. These “wet-tap” assemblies are fabricated to minimize the vertical
height from the pipe crown to the flange face.
This assembly complies with MSS SP-60, the
Standard Practice of the MSS (Manufacturers
Standardization Society of the Valve and
F
Fittings Industry, Inc.). These assemblies are
G
engineered to accept tapping valves, whereas
ordinary flanges will not accept tapping valves. The assembly consists of a custom-engineered branch saddle fused to a customized flange adapter with a centered back up ring.
Tapping Sleeve / Saddles are nominally fused to the main pipe on the horizontal.

Cutter Sizes for Taps
For line-size branch outlets, the proper cutter diameter for HDPE taps is accepted to be as
large as 75% to 90% of the inside diameter of the pipe main. Note: The cutter must fit
through the branch. It is acceptable to use a hole-cutter whose metal OD is up to at least 75%
of the ID of the HDPE main pipe, but no larger than 90% of the HDPE main ID. Obviously, the
cutter can be smaller for smaller branch-outlets.
Some users want the “maximum” diameter opening, thinking that it will maximize the water
volume throughput and minimize the pressure loss through the fitting. A detailed examination
of the numbers reveals the following:
Using a portal outlet cutter hole diameter that is nominally 87% of the ID of the pipe main, a
detailed examination of the pressure loss through the “orifice” of the cut hole was done. The
results confirmed that the pressure loss was negligible, almost insignificant. The pressure
loss was equal to about 3 diameters of extra pipe length.
The pressure loss was less than 0.010 psi....1/100 th of one psi.
A full copy of the detailed report is available upon request.
Using the cutter size range of up to 75% to 90% of the HDPE main pipe ID, the user can
choose a cutter diameter that fits through the branch to provide good flow at minimum pressure loss and avoid tapping problems.
Note: When using line-size metal tapping sleeves, the cutter OD should be smaller, usually about 75% of the pipe main inside diameter to avoid cutting through the spring
line of the HDPE pipe main and not allowing the removal of the HDPE pipe coupon.
The cutter OD should not be as large as the ID of the HDPE pipe main so that when
the coupon is removed, it will retract freely within the cutter.
In all cases, the cutter OD must be slightly smaller in diameter than the HDPE pipe-main ID!!

IPS & DIPS HDPE Pipe Pull Heads
2” to 54” up to 250,000 lbs - Please Call For Quote
Trenchless technology, pipe bursting and sliplining have increased the demand for precision engineered pull heads capable of the multiton tensile loads. The cost of a properly engineered, failure
resistant pull head is so small compared to the cost of any on site difficulties. Our pull heads are
reusable up to 10 times, further reducing each project cost while maintaining reliability on each
project. Durable Pull-Heads are engineered to handle low pull-loads for sliplining or insertion
projects. Ruggedized Pull-Heads are designed to endure longer insertion lengths and or tight
clearances. Reinforced Pull-Heads are engineered to transfer the pull-force to the circumference
of the pipe with a strength equal to the tensile capacity of the pipe itself. Call or Fax for a “Quick
Quote” on specific project needs! Forged Eye-Bolts usually are required at higher pull-loads.

This pipeline component serves to restrain and anchor against thermal
expansion and contraction as well as prevent “French” draining of water along the pipe OD. It is a multipurpose fitting used in several ways
for different reasons - hence, several names for the same part. It is
engineered to hold the pipe in place by transferring the thermal force
from the pipe to the soil or vault wall via a large area of usually reinforced concrete. Make sure the soil bearing load area, as well as the
thickness and strength of the concrete is sufficient.

Ductile Iron Mechanical Joint Anchor Fittings
MJ Adapter Design Information
About 30 years ago, in the mid 1970’s, Anchor Fittings were developed for mechanical joint
bell and spigot connections. Anchor fittings evolved from water-stop fittings, which also provide positive anchoring and axial restraint. Anchor fittings eliminate the need for labor consuming tie-rods, strapping and/or thrust blocking. This design keeps the pipe from separating
under hydraulic pressure and/or soil movement.
The Rotating Ring Gland permits assembly to accommodate any orientation of the bolt holes
in existing metal MJ pipe or fittings to which it is connected. As the tee-bolts are tightened, the
Rotating Ring Gland pushes against the Stop-Shoulder, which in turn compresses the hard
rubber gasket captured within the joint. The Rotating Ring Gland, in combination with the
Stop-Shoulder makes a fully restrained joint, just like a back up ring pushing on a flange or
water-stop. This design has been adopted for plastic pipe as a simple transition between
HDPE pipe and metal DI pipe.
The Anchor Fitting design has been used for over three decades on Hydrant Tees, Swivel
Tees, Anchor Couplings/Spools/Pipes and Anchor Elbows. *

Notes:
*GFCP’s MJ’s incorporate a short nose design in order to work with most MJ butterfly valves, however it is recommended
that specific valve information be supplied prior to ordering to insure proper clearance of the butterfly valve disc. MJ adapters
should always be field tested for valve clearance before burial/final install. GFCP cannot be held responsible for valve
interference with the MJ adapter. **Connections to PVC may require use of a D.I. solid sleeve (not included).

PVC Slip Joint Anchor Fittings
IPS, DIPS, IPS To DIPS, DIPS To IPS
Connects HDPE to PVC
Pressure Rated for DR Ordered
(Dimension in Inches)
The PVC pipe slip joints must be restrained against thermal contraction and pressure thrust
separation with its resultant leakage. By using the wall-pipe and anchor-ring designs (which
have been around a while) and by following the PPI recommendation to use a stiffener under
gaskets, we now offer the restrained PVC-SJA Fitting. The fitting is inventoried in DR 11 and
counter bored to DR 17 as orders are received.

Information on HDPE and Stiffeners
Occasionally, it is convenient to connect HDPE pipe with a mechanical ring or clamp type
device. These connections must have stiffeners under both the gasket and the clamp restrainer.
The long-term apparent strength of HDPE is about 35,000 psi versus the short-term strength of
over 100,000 psi. Thus, the long-term pipe stiffness to resist radial gasket loading is lower over
time. The pipe “creeps” in compression. Creep is defined as the permanent deformation of an
object subject to constant stress. As the gasket constantly presses on the pipe, the pipe becomes slightly smaller over time, thus reducing the gasket pressure and its ability to hold a seal.
The pipe may even pull out due to contraction. Additionally, the radial gasket pressure causes
the polyethylene pipe wall to indent, thus developing tensile stress on the pipe ID. High tensile
stress in localized areas has been known to cause Environmental Stress Cracking in some
HDPE pipes.
It is the policy recommendation of The Plastic Pipe Institute that all polyethylene pipes, subject to
radial gasket loads or external OD clamps, be supported by internal stiffeners. The stiffener
pinches the HDPE pipe between itself and the gasket or clamp. The polyethylene pipe wall is
now in compression between the two. Polyethylene pipe does not fail in compression - all of the
molecules are being squeezed together. The stiffener changes the state of stress in the HDPE
pipe from tension to compression. The stiffener must be under the gasket and clamp!
Caution: The Stiffener and Clamp Ring should be sufficiently wide to develop a compressive
stress in the range of 500 psi to 800 psi. Higher compressive stress will be dissipated by movement or deformation. Radial lug nuts or radial bolts penetrating into the HDPE pipe wall is not
good for HDPE pipe and may potentially cause environmental stress cracking. Use one wide,
serrated or knobby ID restrainer or a number of clamps, to keep the radial stress within HDPE
bearing load capability. The project engineer should design this type joint to handle pressure
end-thrust as well as thermal contraction. Call us for details.

Elbow Design Information and End Options
The design basis for forge-molded elbows and fabricated segment elbows is well known. A 90 degree elbow is
one-fourth of a torus (doughnut). The wedge removed from the straight pipe to make a miter-curve causes a
force imbalance within the elbow. The ell tries to straighten out, sort of like a kink in a pressurized fire-hose. The
ell must be derated or extra mass added to maintain the same pressure rating as the pipe itself. The heatfusion welds are a focus point for the bending stress trying to straighten the ell. Continuous bend pipe without
mitered fusion joints offer a higher pressure rating because there is no stress intensification factor (SIF) (i.e., no
joints). Forge molded ells offer the same tight radius, no fusion joint flow turbulence, no miter joint stress
intensification, and full pressure rating. Fabricated miter-ells have about the same radius of curvature, 4 turbulence amplifying fusion joints close together, and must be re-rated for WPR. The END OPTIONS for elbows
include butt-end, flanged, and DIMJA.
ASME B31.3-1996 Edition
Multiple Miter Bends. The maximum allowable
internal pressure shall be the lesser value
calculated from Eqs. (4a) and (4b). These
equations are not applicable when θ exceeds
22.5 deg.
FIG. 304.23 NOMENCLATURE FOR MITER BENDS
The following nomenclature is used in the
equations for pressure design of straight pipe.
tm = minimum required thickness, including
mechanical, corrosion, and erosion
allowances
t = pressure design thickness, as calculated in
accordance with pare. 304.1.2 for internal
pressure or as determined in accordance
with pare. 304.1.3 for external pressure
c = the sum of the mechanical allowances
(thread or groove depth) plus corrosion and
erosion allowance”. For threaded components, the nominal thread depth (dimension
h of ASME Bl.20.1, or equivalent) shall
apply. For machined surfaces or grooves
where the tolerance is not specified, the
tolerance shall be assumed to be 0.5 mm
(0.02 in.) in addition to the specified depth
of the cut.
T = pipe wall thickness (measured or minimum
per purchase specification)
d = inside diameter of pipe. For pressure design
calculation, the inside diameter of the pipe
is the maximum value allowable under the
purchase specification.
P = internal design gage pressure
D = outside diameter of pipe as listed in tables
of standards or specifications or as
measured
E = quality factor from Table A-IA or A-IB
S = stress value for material from Table A-l
Y= coefficient from Table 304.1.1, valid for t <
D/6 and for materials shown. The value of Y
may be interpolated for intermediate temperatures. For t ≥ D/6.

Information on Forge Molded Elbows
(Sweep Elbows)
Polyethylene pipe can be thermally treated to reach its malleable forming temperature. With
uniform temperature across the wall section, the pipe can then be heated into a new shape within
a mold. The pipe is forge-molded into an elbow configuration without fusion joints. The old memory
of the straight pipe is “killed” and the pipe assumes a new elbow memory.
This technology has been available for several decades throughout the world, especially in Europe and Australia. These nations use forge-molded ells almost exclusively. They use few injection molded ells except in process piping within chemical plants. Forge-molded ells offer the
following advantages.

The forge-molded ells have no fusion joints and thus are hydraulically smoother than fabricated ells with their multiple heat-fusion beads that amplify turbulence and pressure drop
through the elbow.

The radius of curvature is more gentle than fabricated or molded fittings, thus further decreasing the pressure drop through the ell compared to injection molded or fabricated ells.

The forge-molded ell is made from extruded pipe so the heat-fusion bead is uniform and
easy to visually inspect and qualify.

The forge-molded ells are fully pressure rated. These ells have 30 years of historical performance qualifying them against pressure rupture in the same DR as the pipe main.

There are no miter fusion joints to act as the focus of intensified stress. The Stress Intensification Factor (SIF) for forge molded ells is 1.0. The SIP for miter-fab ells is about 1.5. The
forged molded ell is a lower stressed part because of its continuous, smooth, uniform curvature.

The 3:1 R/D ratio provides more mass in the fitting to keep stresses lower. It uses about the
same area as a fab fitting, requiring the same size trench - no larger.

The installation “looks” a lot better with smooth curvatures.
This elbow fitting system is different from others previously sold in the USA.
Try it. You’ll like it. It’s new and better.

HDPE Line Tee Design Information
and Outlet End Options
The linetee is a pipe component (fitting) that has a single branch outlet pipe equal in diameter to
that of the main. The reducing-tee’s branch outlet is of a diameter less than that of the main.
Each tee side-outlet branch is at right angles (90 degrees) to the main.
Molded tees are fully pressure rated. Unreinforced fabricated tees have a reduced WPR, based
solely on geometry. Three-piece mitered tees are usually “externally” reinforced to recapture
some of the derating due to the hole in the main; this is accomplished by using the next lower DR
(heavier wall) pipe. Reducing-tees are reinforced using massive branch saddles, such that the
branch reinforcement surrounding the hole offsets the loss of “hoop” due to the hole. Reducingtees made with the massive branch-saddle are fully pressure rated. The branch saddle reinforcement mass and its placement are calculated per ASME B31.3, Appendix H, Paragraph
#304.3.3.
Tee Outlet End Options are: butt-end, flanged and MJ-anchor. Tees larger than 18 “ diameter
should ( strongly recommended ) be shipped with flanged or MJ-anchor ends to facilitate mechanical assembly in the field without imposing undue lifting stress or strain on the fitting as it is
positioned in the trench and connected to the pipe-run. Long runs of pipe (fused to the Tee) lifted
/ lowered into the trench can place undue stress/strain on the tee fitting
For a tee to achieve full pressure rating it must pass a quick burst test equal to that of the pipe.
(attach a length of pipe equal to approx. 6 pipe diameters and then perform an ASTM D1599
quick-burst test) when the fitting survives and the attached pipe bursts, the fitting is as strong or
stronger than the pipe. Tees with insufficient reinforcement will rupture before the attached pipe.
Tees that survive the quick burst test have a safety factor and stress longevity equal to that of the
pipe.
Derating or rerating of a tee WPR is a function of geometry and stress intensification factors at
the hole in the main. Please refer to the engineering information presented earlier in the catalog
section on Branch-Saddles.

Inspection Tee Kit
(Dimensions in Inches)
The inspection tee is used on many transmission and distribution pipelines. It offers the owner
an opening to the interior of the pipeline for the purpose of inspection or simple access for
mechanical equipment or people when the pipeline is large in diameter. The KIT includes the
native branch saddle, the low height flange adapter fused to the branch-saddle with the metal
back up ring (captured in-between) and blind flange. The bolts are not included in the kit. The
assembly is saddle-fused to a sufficient long section of pipe main to provide for field fusion. The
following inspection tee kits are engineered. Call for a Quick Quote on the particular main size
and inspection tee outlet combination needed for the project.

Lateral Wye Design Information and End Options
The intersection of the branch into the main produces an elliptical hole (oval). The hoop of the pipe
main is more severely breached than a line tee with its circular hole. The derating of the wye is
based on geometry and the stress intensification at the intersection joint.
As the angle goes from a 90° tee to a 60° to 45° to 30° wye, the derating factor becomes more severe
as the loss in “hoop” increases accordingly. The loss in pressure capacity or the reinforcement necessary to keep full pressure rating is determined in ASME B31.3, Paragraph #304.3.3, which includes the
“beta” angle of the wye. The pressure capacity of an unreinforced 45° lateral wye using a 2:1 safety
factor is about 45% of the pressure rating of the straight pipe used for its fabrication.
End options available are whatever may be required for the project, such as butt-end, flanged, DIMJA,
etc.

Reducing Outlet Wyes
Due to the complexity of the concave/convex elliptical (oval) heater plates required to make
unreinforced or poly-reinforced reducing outlet wyes, it is standard practice to add a compact
reducer to the outlet branch of the line-size wye in order to provide a reduced outlet branch.

IPS & DIPS HDPE Reducing
Crosses & End Options
Reducing crosses use full-pressure rated massive-base branch-saddles. The permutations
and combinations of equal and unequal reducing crosses is quite numerous (2" to 24" IPS &
DIPS Outlets- by- 3" to 24" DIPS to 54" IPS pipe main). Call for a Quick Quote on the specific
combination needed for the project. These reducing crosses are not normally a stocking item,
but are made to order. While the tooling for every combination may not be immediately available, Independent Pipe Products can make the required tooling in a reasonable time frame in
our own machine shop. Allow us to Quick Quote on your projects. We want to earn your
business!
End options are your choice of butt-end, flanged, DIMJA, reducer end, etc.

HDPE Outfalls - Diffusers - Headers - Manifolds
Ocean and river outfall pipelines need diffusers to dispense and distribute the effluent into the current so biological
activity can consume the degradable debris. These large diameter pipe fabrications need to be engineered for
constant pressure drop or constant velocity, self-cleaning velocity, minimum velocity and other parameters. Based
on the design, a different diffuser is fabricated. There are many issues to be considered and incorporated into the
design.
Headers for pipe networks are important pipe fabrications. But the spacing between header openings and the
reinforcement of those openings is critical. The “tendon” distance between portal openings must exceed a minimum distance determined by several factors. Call us to work with you and your customers on those header
fabrications.
Manifolds are needed for piping installations such as multi-pipe geothermal heat-pump systems. Proper design
should be considered to insure even flow, so as not to starve any section of the piping network. The header design
is critical to a balanced system!
Georg Fischer Central Plastics’ Professional Engineer and staff are employed to work with the HDPE pipe distributors, engineering consultants and contractors to insure a successful project. Call us to assist on your next diffuser
project.
HDPE Floats & Pontoons
Floats and pontoons are needed for many applications, such as dredging pipelines, sand & gravel pipes, water
borne barges and platforms, etc. The float must be able to support the weight with appropriate positive buoyancy
- not too high in the water, nor too low in the water. Independent Pipe Products has special, low-cost float pipe and
end-caps available. The high buoyancy and low weight make these very practical. The low cost makes these
HDPE pontoons economical. Float pipe is available in sizes 4" to 42". Float length can be from 4ft to 20ft long. To
assure positive flotation, the floats are pressurized. Call for a Quick Quote on your next float or pontoon project.

HDPE Pre-Fab Landfill Riser Shafts
Commercial and sanitary landfills use leachate collection systems to comply with federal mandates to
protect the water and the environment. The landfills need “risers” over some of these pipes. These
riser shafts must have pipe continuously added to the riser as the lifts of garbage and soil cover
increase in height. Flanged pipe spools are “grabbed” by the settlement of the garbage inducing
vertical axial buckling of the riser pipe column. Riser shafts must be smooth on the OD to avoid
vertical crushing! Vertical butt-fusion of the large diameter pipes (with its smooth OD) is virtually
impossible. Hence, mechanical joining of the HDPE riser pipe is the answer! The landfill riser system
is composed of three segments: the Base, the Riser-Segment and the Cap. All these pipe components are fabricated from ruggedized HDPE pipe with at least 46 psi pipe stiffness. Each segment
hand-screws into the other using two men laborers. As the garbage level rises and the riser needs to
be vertically extended, the debris cap is unscrewed and removed by hand. The new Riser-Segment is
hand threaded into place and the debris cap is reinstalled by hand threading it back into position. The
short-length and lightweight HDPE pipe combine to make this a very practical system! Call for a Quick
Quote on the custom base needed for your landfill; add to it all the risers segments needed, and one
debris-cap; and the landfill riser shaft is complete. The end user will want its engineer to do a structural analysis to verify adequacy of pipe for burial depth.

PE Reinforced Massive Mining Fittings

Fully Pressure Rated Full Flow ID Fab Tee’s, Wye’s & Ell’s
Now listed in our fabricated fittings sections of this catalog!
Since the mid 1970’s, High Density Polyethylene pipe and fittings have been used in
mining slurry pipelines. Their use continues to grow every year. In sliding abrasion,
HDPE can out wear and out last steel or other thermoplastics by as much as 200% to
400%.
However, in impact abrasion, HDPE does not do as well. Its wear capacity in impact
abrasion is less that other materials. The abrasion mechanism at the microscopic level is
different in impact versus sliding.
When the slurry changes direction, the slurry particles “impact” the elbows or tees. As the
fitting wall wears, the effective hoop-stress rises until it is too much and the fitting bursts! An
environmental spill may result. When the HDPE pipes are installed above ground, the
pipes may “walk” or move laterally by expansion and contraction. This will bend and
overstress some fittings, especially in mechanical fatigue. The result is a cracked tee or
elbow - allowing a leak or spill.
This can be avoided by a new class of fittings (made under license) that use MASSIVE
reinforcement at critical stress-concentration zones. Such zones are at elbow miter fusion
joints - at the branch of the fusion joint of the branch to the main in a fabricated tee. The
MASSIVE mining fittings use external reinforcement and thick wall section such that the
fitting will “Leak Before Break”. This allows normal maintenance scheduling for fitting
replacement; rather than wearing all the way through and rupturing, which may result in a
shutdown of operations. Suddenly that “cheap” fitting got really expensive. These fittings
have the same bore as the pipeline - therefore causing no turbulent velocity.
This new class of MASSIVE reinforced fittings for mining applications are not inexpensive,
but they do the job and out last all standard HDPE fabricated and molded fittings. They
even replace the schedule 10 stainless, larger diameter metal fittings on SX (Solvent Extract) mining pads, at about half the cost of stainless fabricated fittings.
MASSIVE fittings are externally poly-reinforced; fully pressure rated and have a FULL ID.
Massive fittings are an excellent solution for projects requiring 2:1 design factor full pressure rated fabricated fittings with no ID reduction.
Call for more information and quotes on these MASSIVE mining fittings. They are available
4” through 30" diameter when ordered with sufficient lead-time. Call for a Quick Quote.

HDPE Industrial Manholes and Tanks
GFCP fabricates custom manholes and tanks for municipal and industrial applications, such as a sewer manhole, catch-basin, liquid chemical holding tank,
etc. The types of tanks are quite diverse. Submit your drawings to us and Call
for a Quick Quote.
Feed stocks are on hand up through 63" diameter, OD’s larger than 63” also
available. Length or height is not a problem as the tank / manhole can be assembled in sections. If you need guidance on the design of manholes or
tanks, call us for our basic design guideline booklet.
Because these fixtures are often large and cumbersome with many subcomponents, please allow adequate time in the project schedule for construction
and often oversized shipping.

HDPE Pipe Spools - Flanged & Mechanical Joint
Pipe spools are “short” lengths of pipe with an end fitting which allows it to be
connected into the pipeline or process piping system. The end fitting may be a
flange-adapter, a ductile-iron mechanical-joint anchor fitting, a grooved adapter,
or one of many other industry recognized connects.
Prefabricated spools allow for mechanical assembly of HDPE piping in the
field when butt fusion may not be a preferred method. Spools are often used
for temporary supply lines in several markets including municipal, industrial and
mining applications. Spools are often disassembled, relocated and reassembled
several times thus providing a reusable HDPE piping system.
Spools are priced per project and can include any number of variables such as
overall lengths and many different end connection options. Call us for a Quick
Quote.

AWWA, FM, ASTM Hydrostatic Testing Services
Quality Certifications - 10 CFR Appendix B , NQA-1
GFCP has a complete large diameter hydro-testing laboratory located at our Dallas, TX plant.
While GFCP is not a certified laboratory, its resident Professional Engineer oversees the test
work, procedures, and safety practices in compliance with the protocol and requirements of a
required testing standard such as AWWA C906, section 2.4.0.
Standard fittings in sizes 24" and smaller diameter are routinely hydrotested to meet AWWA
C901/C906 or Factory Mutual requirements due to the number of units and frequency of production.
Larger diameter fittings are ordered less frequently. The costs for blind-flanging a 24" to 54" tee
for hydro testing is very expensive. The test costs are applied to the individual fitting required for
the project. The testing cost is billed at cost per the following schedule. Testing cost are affected
by the quantities of specific fittings to be tested. Call for a Quick Quote on large diameter fittings
tested to AWWA C901/C906 or other required project or application test standards.

Pressure Ratings are calculated using 0.50 design factor for HDS at 73°F as listed in FM 1613. Temperature considerations may require
use of additional design factors. Pipe weights are calculated in accordance with PPI TR-7. Average inside diameter is calculated with
nominal OD and minimum wall thickness plus 6%. Actual ID’s will vary and are controlled by the dimensions and tolerances listed in the
applicable pipe specifications.

Water-Stop / Thrust-Isolator
Wall-Pipe / Anchor Ring
(Dimensions in Inches)
This pipeline component serves to restrain and anchor against thermal
expansion and contraction as well as prevent “French” draining of water along the pipe OD. It is a multipurpose fitting used in several ways
for different reasons - hence, several names for the same part. It is
engineered to hold the pipe in place by transferring the thermal force
from the pipe to the soil or vault wall via a large area of usually reinforced concrete. Make sure the soil bearing load area, as well as the
thickness and strength of the concrete is sufficient.

Note: GFCP’s MJ’s incorporate a short nose design in order to work with most MJ butterfly valves, however it is
recommended that specific valve information be supplied prior to ordering to insure proper clearance of the butterfly
valve disc. MJ adapters should always be field tested for valve clearance before burial/final install. GFCP cannot be
held responsible for valve interference with the MJ adapter. **Connections to PVC may require use of a D.I. solid sleeve (not
included).

Pressure Ratings are calculated using 0.50 design factor for HDS at 73°F as listed in FM 1613. Temperature considerations may require
use of additional design factors. Pipe weights are calculated in accordance with PPI TR-7. Average inside diameter is calculated with
nominal OD and minimum wall thickness plus 6%. Actual ID’s will vary and are controlled by the dimensions and tolerances listed in the
applicable pipe specifications.
Pipe OD (inches)
DR =
Minimum
Wall Thickness (inches)
Per FM 1613 & AWWA C906, the working pressure rating equals
the pressure class, with an allowance included in the WPR for The Long-Term Hydrostatic Strength of PE3608/PE4710 Polyethylene
pressure surge. The pressure and surge design basis for polyeth- Pipe is 1600 psi at 73.4 F. The performance & physical properties of
ylene pipe is different from the PVC and DI pipe design basis.
PE4710 meet and exceed the requirements of PE3608.

Water-Stop / Thrust-Isolator
Wall-Pipe / Anchor Ring
(Dimensions in Inches)
T
This pipeline component serves to restrain and anchor against thermal
expansion and contraction as well as prevent “French” draining of water along the pipe OD. It is a multipurpose fitting used in several ways
for different reasons - hence, several names for the same part. It is
engineered to hold the pipe in place by transferring the thermal force
from the pipe to the soil or vault wall via a large area of usually reinforced concrete. Make sure the soil bearing load area, as well as the
thickness and strength of the concrete is sufficient.
