Multi employs a unique pressure gasket system to ensure a
leak-proof seal. The features of the gasket system are illustrated and
explained below:
-
Pressure pockets that transmit internal water
pressure to the pipe spigot making a tight leak-proof seal.
-
Second high rise sealing lip creates a tight seal
having an ample sealing tolerance for pipe with a nominal diameter.
-
High impact and high memory polypropylene
lock ring prevents gasket movement from the raceway during assembly and
normal pressure conditions.
-
First smaller lip prevents foreign material
from coming in contact with the second sealing lip. It also centralizes the
pipe spigot while at the same time preventing contact with the lock ring.
-
Massive rubber areas and low compression set
for outstanding compression seal.
-
Arched back pocket that gives excellent
tolerance to the gasket seal raceway. Transmits an even radial force
from the lock ring to the gasket seat.
-
Completely injection molded (including color
coded polypropylene lock ring) for better tolerance and dimension control.
