Groove by Press Tees
This is an excellent transition for joining grooved and press fittings together. While the runs are roll grooved, the branch is a plain end finish allowing for a press fitting
to be attached using the appropriate press tool.

Other sizes available upon request. Other branch configurations are available as well. Male thread or female thread are just a few options available.

M18™ Force Logic Long Throw Press Tool 1/2"-1" Kit

GroovJoint

Overview:

The M18™ Force Logic™ Long Throw Press Tool is the smallest, lightest press tool available today. It features an in-line design, offers the most ergonomic solution for navigating around installed pipes, and also delivers on the highest level of press accuracy and reliability available. The M18™ Force Logic™ Press Tool monitors the force output to ensure quality connections and features the best calibration standard in the industry.

Features:

  • A long stroke provides the ability to press larger dimensions and more demanding pipe like stainless steel, for example
  • Press indicator provides a visual assurance there is a quality connection
  • A shorter stroke provides faster press times on jaws and copper rings
  • Smallest, lightest long throw press tool in the market; weighs 9.5 lbs.
  • Industry leading 40,000 cycles between calibration inspections
  • System provides up to 35+ solutions on one pack
  • Balanced, in-line design

Coupling Gasket Grease

TUF-LUBE™ Grooved Coupling Gasket Grease

Tuf-Lube is a mixed fatty acid soap dispersed in glycols and water solvents with a clay pigment filler.

It resists evaporation and will not freeze.

Mating of abutting pipes forces the gel into the cavity, thus providing the needed lubrication to complete coupling and seal the joint.

The soap lubricant does not dry out when gaskets are stored in sealed plastic containers or bags.

GroovJoint
  • Tuf Lube maintains its soft paste consistency and amber/tan color
  • Can be used from -10°F to 150°F.
  • Can be used on all types of pipe including asbestos cement, cast iron, concrete, plastic and clay pipe.
  • Will not deteriorate natural rubber, synthetic rubber or plastic gaskets.
  • Tuf-Lube is certified to meet NSF code 61 standards for potable water system uses.
  • Strict analytical standards and formula consistency are used to assure production of a safe lubricant for water pipe joining needs.
  • Environmentally friendly raw materials common in the soap and lubricants industry are used in producing Tuf-Lube.
  • Will not irritate the hands and is not toxic.
  • Contains no petroleum oils or phosphates.
  • Contains no silicone.
  • Manufactured in the USA.
  • VOC Content: Minimal (2%)
  • Available in 1 quart tub (#1010031) and 55-gallon drum (#1010033).
