Victaulic Shouldered Joining Systems

As an official African Victaulic distributor, Truco supplies the full range of Victaulic mechanical pipe joining products for shouldered pipes.

Victaulic Shouldered Systems benefits:

  • System design flexibility
  • Allows for expansion, contraction & deflection of the piping system
  • Ideal for abrasive applications
  • Zero leak path for compressed air systems

Shouldered couplings mechanically lock shouldered pipe ends together in a safe and secure manner. They cannot blow off under pressure or pull off under vibration because the couplings’ shoulder sections engage the whole circumference of the pipe shoulders.

These shouldered joining systems are ideal for use in mining, cement, and concrete industries.

Victaulic products have PROVEN success in the following industries:

  • Mining
  • Maritime
  • Water Treatment
  • Water Distribution
  • Power Generation
  • Fire protection
  • Oil & Gas
  • Automotive
  • Pulp & Paper
  • Heating Ventilation & Air Conditioning
  • Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM)
  • Chemical & Petrochemical

Shouldered Coupling: Flexible Coupling for Shouldered Steel Pipes

The Victaulic SC77 Installation-Ready™ coupling installs up to 10 times faster than traditional pipe joining methods.

 
  • Joins two shouldered steel pipes
  • Installation-Ready™ Couplings install without having to disassemble the coupling - eliminating loose parts & ensuring consistent, faster installation
  • Supplied with galvanised finish for high corrosion resistance & Hot Dip Galvanized Bolt & Nuts
  • Coupling sizes range from 50 to 300 mm
  • Withstands pressures up to 4 000 kPa

Shoulder Valves: Shouldered Butterfly Valve

SC761 series shouldered butterfly valves provide superior flow rates with an off-set centre disc. Designed with ease and simplicity in mind, Victaulic shouldered butterfly valves feature a lower operating torque than most valves in the market.

  • Designed for bi-directional, dead end services to a full working pressure
  • Available bare, with gear operator, with leaver lock handle & memory stop or with 10-position handle & memory stop
  • Sizes ranging from 50 to 200 mm
  • Pressure rating up to 2 068 kPa

Shouldered Fittings

Victaulic shouldered fittings can be lined for abrasive service piping applications. All shouldered fittings are provided with a galvanised finish for high corrosion applications and are for pipe sizes 50 – 200 mm.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are Victaulic shouldered joining systems?

Victaulic shouldered joining systems are used to securely connect pipes made of various pipe materials across fire protection, industrial and general applications.

Does it matter which way a butterfly valve is installed?

Butterfly valves can be installed in any direction, but it is recommended that installation is upright in bigger sizes to reduce load on the shaft caused by the actuator or gearbox trying to pull away.

Are Victaulic shouldered systems a mechanical joint?

Victaulic shouldered joining systems are sets of components used to join mechanical pipes to create a watertight joint.

Where can Victaulic shouldered joining systems be applied?

Victaulic shouldered joining systems can be applied to portable piping systems, hydraulic applications, water applications and slurry services.

What is the pressure rating for Victaulic fittings?

The pressure rating for Victaulic fittings is 50 psi/5171 kPa/52 bar on a standard weight carbon steel pipe.
