Victaulic, the manufacturer of mechanical pipe joining and fire protection systems, introduces the new FireLockTM Installation-Ready™ Fittings (No. 101 90° Elbow, 102 Tee and 103 45° Elbow). Designed for fire protection systems, the fittings require less fasteners, resulting in faster, simpler installation while maintaining a safe and efficient jobsite.
The simplicity of the FireLock EZ™ Rigid Coupling – Style 009N, combined with the convenience of a single-unit design solution, Victaulic FireLock Installation-Ready™ Fittings provide fast, easy pipe connections with no need to disassemble. Standard grooved pipe and accessories are joined by simply pushing the Installation-Ready elbow onto the pipe and tightening three bolts, versus the standard four, therefore removing prep and lifting of two additional steps; installing in less than half the time of conventional fittings.
Victaulic FireLock Installation-Ready Fittings reduce the number of parts on a jobsite, minimizing the jobsite inventory by 75% and material handling by reducing the number of times the sprinkler fitter needs to go up and down the lift or ladder. In addition to fewer parts, the Installation-Ready fittings have no loose parts to drop or lose minimizing jobsite inventory and material handling on-site, therefore reducing the risk of personnel injury.
