For more than 45 years, Ideal Clamp Products, Inc. has been manufacturing no-hub couplings for the most recognized names in the business. Ideal-Tridon Couplings are listed or certified by all major plumbing code bodies throughout the U.S. and Canada. Our engineers have pioneered such innovations as our patented bidirectional corrugated shield and the 12 and 15 inch couplings. Our superior performance is in the design of our components, which provide superior clamping efficiency. Rely on Ideal-Tridon No-Hub Couplings for dependable pipe and fitting connections.
A Robust Interlocking Clamp Design
The couplings feature a one-piece screw housing that mechanically interlocks the housing to the band. This one-piece housing design eliminates leak paths that can occur in stacked or welded clamps.
Installation and ultimate torque ratings are engineered to provide the clamps with enough tightening capacity to ensure that ample sealing pressure reaches the joint to create a tight, secure seal.
A Flexible Bi-directional Shield Design
Our unique, thin bi-directional shield provides added grip for a more secure, no-leak connection.
- INCREASED TRANSFERENCE OF TORQUE
A thicker gauge shield material blocks the torque from getting to the gasket while a thinner shield protects the gasket while allowing a more efficient transfer of torque therefore providing a better seal.
- BETTER AGAINST DEFLECTION
A thinner shield is more forgiving, flexible, and malleable. It bends with the joint allowing the seal to remain strong. A thick shield is rigid and does not form itself over the joint.
- STEPPED JOINTS
The thinner shield allows the shield to conform over the stepped joint providing an effective seal.
A More Chemically Sound Rubber Gasket
The gasket components are made of a properly vulcanized virgin compound where the primary elastomer is Polychloropene (neoprene). Polychloropene withstands high liquid temperatures (), is fire and oil resistant and resists decay and deterioration when exposed to effluents in the pipe, air, or soil.
AND
- The gasket is specially beaded so that when paired with the qualities of the shield clamps, all forces combine for a No-Hub Coupling with superior sealing pressure and holding power.
