Hand tight plus 1 1/2 turns, which compresses the Nitrile gasket, which creates a water-tight seal. The Stainless-Steel screw is tightened to contact the brass clamp to the opposite side, for pull-out strength. Iron pipe (IP) is stabbed thru nut and gasket/friction ring assembly to stab depth. The nut is tightened to hand plus 1 1/2 turns, which compresses the gasket, which creates a water-tight seal. The Stainless-Steel screw or screws are tightened to the required torque, for pull-out strength. INTENDED FOR USE ON COLD WATER SERVICES 1. Handle parts carefully, do not drop, protect threads from damage 2. Do not interchange parts with other manufacturers 3. USE A SMOOTH-JAWED ADJUSTABLE WRENCH that fully and evenly engages wrenching flats. Loose fitting wrenches and pipe wrenches may distort and damage the part resulting in leakage 4. AWWA and tapered pipe threads require a good quality sealant or PTFE tape before mating 5. Use only pipes and fittings intended for use together. Check specifications 6. Use Stainless-Steel inserts to reinforce flexible plastic pipes 7. Piping must be round and cut square, clean, and smooth with proper tools. Do Not Use A Hacksaw 8. PRESSURE TEST ALL JOINTS, VALVES AND FITTINGS BEFORE BACKFILLING 9. Do not allow water to freeze within valves and fittings. Expansion of ice may damage the part DAMAGE DUE TO IMPROPER INSTALLATION, HANDLING OR FREEZING OF WATER IN THE PART WILL VOID THE WARRANTY AWWA straight threads Campak nut with split clamp Stainless-Steel screw Nitrile Gasket Anti-friction ring Tubing Stainless steel screw Anti-friction ring Nitrile gasket Stab depth AWWA straight threads Machined grooves Tubing Stainless-Steel screw Anti-friction ring Nitrile gasket Stab depth Iron pipe Electrical Continuity Campak, B, PE, PJ, IP Compression DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN CAMPAK PEP PVC Installation 1. CAMPAK - Use copper water pipe type K or L (ASTM B88) or CTS polyethylene pipe SDR-9 (AWWA 901, ASTM D2737) 2. PEP - Use polyethlene pipe ID controlled SIDR-7 (ASTM D2239, D3035, D2662) 3. PVC - Use PVC pipe or IPS polyethylene pipe SDR-9, 11, 17 4. Loosen nut to relax gasket/ gripper combination and insert pipe through nut into the socket of the fitting 5. Push pipe in until it bottoms inside fitting body (with stops) or appropriate depth (without stops) 6. Tighten nut 1 to 1 1/2 turns after gasket starts to com press. If clamp screw is not accessible, reposition by further tightening the nut 7. To ensure against blowout of pipe, tighten the clamp screw very secure! A socket wrench is preferable to a screwdriver. NOTE: H, B, GJ, J, K nuts have the same threads and are interchangeable.
