What is Installation-Ready™ Technology?

Victaulic's patented Installation-Ready™ couplings provide fast, easy pipe connections, and reduce the number of loose parts to drop or misplace. The single-unit design allows an installer to assemble the coupling or fitting simply by inserting it onto the grooved end of a pipe and tightening the nuts.

How much faster is Installation-Ready™ technology vs. other joining methods?

• Install up to 10 times faster than welded joints
• Install up to 6 times faster than flanged joints
• Install in less than half the time of standard grooved couplings

What are the benefits of Installation-Ready™ technology?

• Compressed project schedules
• Reduce material handling
• Better managed labor risk
• Enhanced job site safety
