Victaulic style 11 - 5" 45 degree elbow
The Victaulic Fittings, in Conjunction with the Zero-Flex Couplings have a unique, patented angle pad design which constricts the housing keys into the groove around the full circumference to grip the pipe rigidly. The housings slide on the angled pads rather than mating squarely. This sliding adjustment also forces the key sections into opposed contact on the inside and the outside groove edges, pushing the joint to its maximum pipe end separation. These rigid couplings provide a rigid joint allowing no expansion/contraction or linear movement. Couplings will push the pipe ends to their maximum allowable separation which must be considered during assembly.
