Thrust-Lock Boltless Restrained Joint
Thrust-Lock ductile iron pipe is a flexible positive restrained joint
system designed to accommodate internal working pressures of up to
350 psi plus 100 psi surge allowance. Available in sizes 6" through
36", Thrust-Lock combines the convenience and ease
of push-on
joints with the strength and security provided by a restrained joint
pipe system designed of sound engineering principles.
Thrust-Lock's liberal joint deflection allowances further complement this system to make it one of
the most versatile and cost-effective restrained joints on the market.
The Thrust-Lock assembly incorporates proven pipe joint sealing
systems--TytonŽ gaskets for 6" through 24" and FastiteŽ gaskets for
30" and 36" providing further reason to place confidence in the performane of the Thrust-Lock concept.
The availability of a full line of Thrust-lock fittings allows for a uniform boltless restrained joint pipeline from the
first station to the last. Trust-Lock fittings, as with the pipe, are available in ductile iron only and are manufactured in
accordance with the AWWA C110 standard.

SHORT FORM SPECIFICATION:
-
SCOPE
- This specification covers the general requirements for Pacific States Thrust-Lock Ductile Iron Pipe.
-
CONFORMANCE
- Ductile iron pipe 6" through 36", shall be manufactured in accordance with ANSI/AWWA C151/A21.51 under method of design outlined in ANSI/AWWA C1 50/A21.50.
- Joints
- Rubber-gasket joints shall be TytonŽ Joint 6" through 24" and FastiteŽ Joint 30" through 36" and shall meet the requirements of ANSI/AWWA C111/A21.11.
- External Coating
- External pipe coating shall be an asphaltic coating in accordance with ANSI/AWWA C151/A21.51 for pipe and ANSI/AWWA C110/A21.10 for fittings.
- Internal Pipe Lining
- The pipe shall be cement-mortar lined in accordance with ANSI/AWWA C1 04/A21.4. 3. PRESSURE RATINGS
- For pressures higher than 350 psi contact your local sales representative.
-
FITTINGS
- Fittings for ductile iron pressure pipe shall be produced in accordance with ANSI/AWWA C1101A21.10.
Thrust-Lock Restrained Joint Assembly
Step 1 Ring Installation
A. Put lock ring on the spigot end of the pipe
B. Pry the lock ring over the weldment. Use the hammer to tap the cover.
C. Lock ring installation complete.
Step 2 Clean the Bell and Spigot
A. Thoroughly clean out the bell with special attention to the gasket recess. Remove any foreign material or excess paint.
B. Clean the spigot end and remove any sharp edges.
Step 3 Insert Gasket
A. Insert the gasket into the recess in the bell with the small end of the gasket facing the bell face.
Step 4 Lube the Bell and Spigot
A. Apply lube to the inside surface only of the gasket.
B. Apply a generous coating of lubricant to the spigot end.
Step 5 Insert pipe
Guide the spigot end into the bell and, while maintaining straight alignment, push the pipe into the bell socket.
Step 6 Insert Lock Ring
Push lock ring into the bell.
Step 7 Rotate lock ring
Rotate the lock ring until the lugs align. Use a hammer to tap the ring if required. Install the anti-rotation wedges at 3 and 9 o'clock if the pipe is being used inside of a casing. Deflect the joint if desired.
Thrust-Lock Boltless Restrained Joint For Field Cut Pipe
Pacific States has developed a companion joint to the Thrust-Lock restrained joint pipe system for instances requiring pipe
cuts in the field.
The strength, reliability and joint deflection found in the standard ThrustLock joint is matched with the versatility essential
for field adjustments. The field-cut version of the Thrust-Lock joint utilizes a locking ring with stainless steel serrations
welded to its interior in place of the factory weldment found on full length Thrust-Lock pieces. The serrations grip the field
cut spigot end of the pipe serving to anchor the joint assembly. As with the system featuring a factory weldment, the restraining
ring for field-cut Thrust-Lock pipe has been designed for internal working pressures of up to 350 psi plus 100 psi surge
allowance.
SELECTING AND CUTTING PIPE FOR FIELD ADJUSTMENTS Before field cutting a piece of ductile iron pipe it is important to measure the
outside diameter at the point the cut will occur to ensure it falls within accepted tolerances. (See chart). Once a piece has been
selected, it can be cut using an abrasive pipe saw, a rotary wheel cutter, a guillotine pipe saw or a milling wheel saw. Cut ends
should be carefully ground to remove rough edges and metal spurs which may damage a rubber gasket if not properly eliminated. Bevel
the cut end before installing.
Field Cutting Ductile Iron Pipe
When it is necessary to field cut ductile iron pipe, the installer should select a piece of pipe that has been marked for field cutting.
All ductile iron pipe has a slight taper due to the manufacturing process. If the pipe is not marked for field cutting then the
diameter of the pipe should be checked prior to cutting. This can be done with an OD
Tape or by using an MJ follower to check the diameter of the pipe. No pipe should be cut within 24 inches of the bell face.
