Introducing Koflex Super Shielded no hub couplings, designed for the most demanding jobs. These enhanced couplings feature an increased torque rating of 80 in/lbs and 3/8″ HEX heads. It also includes a clamp, screws, and shield made entirely of stainless steel for maximum reliability and resistance to corrosion. Depending on the size, they are available with either 4 or 6 bands, providing a super tight seal. Sizes ranging from 1½” – 10″ are available to satisfy any type of application.
-Soft Rubber Gaskets Mold to the Pipes
-Watertight Seal
-Low Expansion and Contraction
-Resistance to Vibrations
