Can Victaulic be used for compressed air?
Mine Compressed Air Solutions Victaulic mechanical joining technology keeps compressed air systems online, optimizing system efficiency while mitigating the risk of air loss.
What is a Victaulic gasket?
What is a Victaulic Gasket? At the heart of each Victaulic mechanical pipe joint is a strategically designed Victaulic elastomer gasket. Each elastomer gasket is molded to fit the cavity of the pipe coupling housing, and when energized during tightening, is responsible for creating a positive seal on the pipe.

Can you use poly pipe for compressed air?
Polyethylene pipes have many attributes which make them ideal for compressed air applications.
What is Victaulic used for?
The Victaulic coupling was used by Allied forces to accelerate the distribution of fuel and water to the troops. The coupling was invaluable for the troops because it decreased the difficulty of assembling and de-assembling pipe lines and allowed them to hasten distribution.
Do you need a gasket with a Victaulic flange?
Vic-Flange gaskets utilize the Victaulic pressure- responsive design, sealing on the pipe end and directly to the opposing flange face. No standard flange gasket is required.
Is Shurjoint compatible with Victaulic?
