Utilizing the proven thrust restraint features of the TR FLEX® Pipe and Fittings product line, theXTRA FLEX Coupling provides an exceptionally strong joint with a high degree of deflection.Deflections up to four (4) times that of a single TR FLEX Pipe or Fitting joint are possible. U.S. Pipe’sXTRA FLEX Coupling can be used as a high deflection reducer if one of the inserts is removed.

Currently produced in sizes 4"–24", the XTRA FLEX Coupling uses standard TYTON JOINT®

Gaskets and is compatible with all TR FLEX Pipe and Fittings products.

All XTRA FLEX Fittings have a rated working pressure of 350 psi, except 24", which is 250 psi.The standard lining and coating is a petroleum asphaltic material.

Joint assembly follows the same procedure as that for all TR FLEX Pipe and Fittings. For detailedinstructions concerning joint preparation, assembly and other information, refer to U.S. Pipe publication BRO-009, TR FLEX® Restrained Joint Pipe and Fittings, and BRO-051, The Use andApplication of Restrained Joints for Ductile Iron Pipelines.

With the use of XTRA FLEX Reducers, TR FLEX® Bends and Tees can be adapted to provide addi-tional flexibility to accommodate earth movement and unstable soil conditions, giving designengineers greater flexibility. For example, by installing an XTRA FLEX Reducer inside each bell ofa TR FLEX Fitting, the deflection capabilities of two joints are available.

XTRA FLEX Reducers, which are small end bell reducers, are available in 6"x 4"–30"x 24" sizes.

XTRA FLEX Tees are available in sizes 4"x 4"– 24"x 24" sizes.

When ordering XTRA FLEX Fittings, only the fitting configuration and line size need be specified.For example, if an XTRA FLEX Fitting for a 6" line is to be orered, specify a 6" XTRA FLEX Sleeve.The unit will be supplied with the proper size TR FLEX® Couplings and XTRA FLEX Reducers.Equal opening tees and bends will be suppplied in the same manner, with reducers in all fittingends. In special conditions where reducers are not required in all ends or where tees other thanequal opening are required, please contact your U. S. Pipe Sales Representative for the properopening size.

The XTRA FLEX Reducers may be used to provide a reduced diamter, high deflection joint at mostoutlets of 6"–24" TR FLEX® Fittings. The table on page 12 shows the XTRA FLEX Reducers whichare available.

XTRA FLEX Fittings will be shipped assembled with all components in place. To prevent loss ofcomponents in shipping and handling, each fittings assembly will be polyethylene encased. The assembled fittings should be inspected to make certain that all components are in placeand then rewrapped in polyethylene to prevent soil from entering the joint opening, therebyreducing flexibility.
