HYMAX GRIP 14" and 16" is the first restraint product of its size with four top-facing bolts, and a stab-fit, one-piece design.
Compared to similar products with multiple parts and as many as 12 bolts to tighten, the HYMAX Grip 14/16" makes repairs safer and faster with less time spent in the ditch.
The four top-facing bolts eliminate under digging for space to tighten bolts. The stab-fit, one-piece design allows for easier and faster installation and eliminates the possibility of losing nuts in the mud.
- The Wide-Range HYMAX GRIP 14"/16" Restrains most Mental and Plastic Pipes, Including HDPE and Replaces the Need to use Dedicated Products to Reduce Inventory Costs and Save Shelf Space.
- PRECAUTIONS FOR HDPE PIPE: Note that the Use of Pipe Stiffeners is Required on HDPE Pipe.
- The Patented GRIP Chain Offers Circular Restraint Around the Pipe. It Holds Pipes Tightly in Place During Installation, Allowing Full Control over the Gap Between Pipes
As the Pipe Applies Axial Pressure, the GRIP Chain Increasingly Tightens over the Pipe, Preventing Pullout.
- The HYMAX GRIP Allows Dynamic Deflection of the Pipe for up to Four Degrees Per Side, Reducing Future Pipe Cracks and Breaks.
