SHORT FORM SPECIFICATION:

Scope
1.1 This specification covers the general requirements for Pacific States Ductile Iron Pressure Pipe for conveying water and other liquids.
Conformance
1. Pipe:
  Ductile Iron Pipe, 3" through 36", shall meet the requirements of ANSI/AWWA C151/A21.51 and ANSI/AWWA C150/A21.50.
2. Joints:
  Rubber-gasket joints shall be Tyton® Joint 3"-24" and Fastite® 30"-36" and meet the requirements of ANSI/AWWA 0111/121.11.
3. Coating and Lining:
  Outside coating shall be an asphaltic coating approximately one mil thick. Pipe shall be cement-mortar lined per ANSI/AWWA C104/A21.4.

Tyton® and Fastite® Pipe Joint Assembly

Step 1. Thoroughly clean out the bell with special attention to the gasket recess. Remove any foreign material or excess paint. Clean the spigot or beveled plain end and remove any sharp edges with a standard file.

Step 2. After making sure that the correct gasket is being used, insert it into the recess in the bell with the small end of the gasket facing the bell face.

Step 3A, 3B. Apply lubricant to the inside surface only of the gasket, making sure that the entire surface is coated. Apply a generous coating of lubricant to the beveled portion of the plain end.

Step 4. Guide the plain end into the bell and, while maintaining straight alignment, push the plain end into the bell socket. Once the joint is assembled, necessary deflection can be accomplished. When assembly is complete, the bell face should be aligned between the two white depth rings.

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.
