END ATTACHMENTs & CONNECTIONS

In addition to the standard end connection options, Ultra Tech can provide customized sizes and configurations to meet the requirements of your system. Selection of the appropriate options is dictated by maintenance considerations, performance expectations, life cycle, and other variables. In most cases, these end attachments can be installed in the field utilizing proper procedures. However, improved performance will result when factory fitted. 

Ultra Tech offers a series of connection options including  Couplings, Flanges, Weld Rings, and End Grooves.

Other custom end styles are available. Please consult the factory for details.

2-BOLT COUPLINGS

Couplings join two pieces of pipe together. Ultra Tech Hevi-Duty 2 Bolt Coupling assemblies consists of two-piece ductile iron casting, captive rubber gasket, nuts and bolts to secure the coupling halves together.

  • Fast installation time
  • Easy cleaning

SUPER HIGH PRESSURE

  • Male / female interlocking weld end design
  • O-ring seal
  • 20° tapered faces aid installation
  • 4″ – 10” (101.6mm – 254mm) are available
  • Pressures depend on system design

HIGH PRESSURE 

Paste Systems:

  • Slip-on Hevi-Duty weld end design
  • Cavity gasket seal
  • 20° tapered faces aid installation
  • 4″ – 10” (101.6mm – 254mm) are available
  • Pressures depend on system design

Water / Sludge Systems:

  • Male / female interlocking weld end design
  • Dual sealing; cavity gasket plus quad seal
  • 20° tapered faces aid installation
  • 4″ – 10” (101.6mm – 254mm) are available
  • Pressures depend on system design

STANDARD HEVI-DUTY 

  • Slip-on Hevi-Duty weld end design
  • Cavity gasket seal
  • 20° tapered faces aid installation
  • 3″ – 10” (76.2mm – 254mm) are available
  • Pressures depend on system design

FLANGES

Ultra Tech flanges secure two pipes together using bolted connections.

Flanges are the most common end-style and a great solution for field-installs already using Flange connections. Ultra Tech flange sizes range from 2.5” to 24” (63.6mm to 609.6mm)

Meets ASME B16.5 standards

STANDARD FLANGES:

  • From 150# up to 2,500#
  • Available in Raised Face or Flat-Face Slip-On Flanges
  • Other styles are available upon request

STANDARD ROTATING FLANGES:

  • 150# up to 2500# Rotating Flange
  • Rotating collar over fixed hub

CUSTOM:

  • Custom flanges available. Consult factory for details.

WELD RINGS

Permanent steel ring connections can easily be field-welded which provides a rigid fit. Made from mild steel specially designed to prevent heat treat loss at joint connection.

Rings are designed for vertical loads and pressure applications.

Conventional

  • Flush with pipe face

 

Self-Aligning Weld Rings 

  • male/female engagement

 

Common Applications: Boreholes, Dredges, Offsets (S-bends)

END GROOVES

Cut grooves on the outer diameter of the pipe. They are used in conjunction with couplings for rigid or flexible connections. This connection is dependent on the coupling style. 

Cut Grooves are available in multiple styles:

Grooves can be added to nominal pipe sizes 2.5″ up to 20″ (63.5mm – 508mm). Coupling dictates groove style used. Consult factory with details.

D-Rings:

Slip-on style ring with specified groove to prevent cutting into pipe wall. This prolongs the life of the pipe. Requires coupling the next size up.
