Ductile Iron Pipe Connector

The Ductile Iron Pipe Connector is made specifically for ductile iron water mains. Ductile iron pipe is the most common pipe material in city water systems. Traditional socket rubber ring joints work well for new installation. But for repairs and partial replacement, you need faster connection methods. Our connector is designed for ductile iron pipe OD and material properties. It is the ideal connection product for network upgrades and emergency repairs.

The connector bore and seal groove dimensions match national standard ductile iron pipe ODs. The sealing ring uses the same EPDM material as standard socket joints. This ensures material compatibility. The housing uses QT450 ductile iron. This matches the pipe material exactly. The housing and pipe become one unit with the same electrical potential. There is no risk of galvanic corrosion. Installation is simple and needs no heavy equipment. It works well in tight spaces like valve pits.

We use QT450 ductile iron as our main raw material. This material has good casting properties, good machinability, and good wear resistance. It has some elasticity and resists sudden temperature changes. Our foundry controls spheroidization and inoculation carefully. Every heat is tested for nodularity. The housing surface is smooth and free of porosity, sand holes, or cracks. Wall thickness is over 5 mm.
