Smith-Blair 234 Single Band Tapped Full Circle® Repair Clamps provide a fast, economical means of repairing a damaged pipe at broken or torn out service connections or branch lines. The repairs can be made and the service connection or branch line restored in one operation. The 234 Clamps can also be used for new installations of service connections or branch lines.
The stainless steel outlet is welded to the band and is available with NPT, threads. O.D. ranges are designed to fit cast iron, steel and most other types of pipe. The clamps have a built-in O.D. range enabling each clamp to fit several pipe outside diameters.
Full Circle® Repair Clamps feature a lap type gasket with molded tapered ends to provide efficient equalized sealing at the lap joint on any pipe within the clamp’s range. The gasket has a finely grided surface with resilience to easily conform to irregularities on rough pipe surfaces or in pitted areas, providing an effective seal all around the pipe.
A stainless steel bridge plate spans the opening of the lugs and is bonded flush into the gasket to prevent wrinkling in the lug area, providing even gasket pressure at all points around the full circumference of the pipe.
The band is made of stainless steel, selected to meet necessary corrosion resistance, flexibility and strength requirements.
Lugs are securely attached to the stainless steel band, and have mutually supporting stabilizing fingers to permit maximum torquing of the bolts. The lug design includes a drop-in bolt feature that eliminates loose parts, saves time and aids installation under adverse conditions.
The bolts and nuts are low alloy steel with rolled threads, double radius heads and a generous shoulder to prevent bolt rotation under maximum torque loading.
