How to Install Vulcathene Mechanical Fittings
Creating a secure mechanical joint with Vulcathene fittings involves a precise and methodical process to ensure optimal joint integrity and system performance. Follow these steps for installation:
Cutting the Pipe:
Use a rotary plastic pipe cutter for a clean, burr-free cut. Clamp the pipe to avoid distortion.
Ensure the cut is square. If a hacksaw is used, remove all burrs and loose material.
Groove the pipe using the appropriate grooving tool for the tongued olive to fit in.
