With a variety of Ultra Tech pipe connections to choose from, you will be able to join pipes together to create a continuous flow path for your materials, no matter your application. Connections are crucial for ensuring your piping system functions properly, without leaks or breaks and with the right flow direction.
The Ultra Tech Ultra Duty 8″ High Pressure Coupling is our top-of-the-line forged coupling, exceeding the pressure ratings of previous models at 2,650psi (182bar). Its slip-fit design instead of a male-female connection, means there is no need to jack pipe apart to disconnect the system. By eliminating the need for a cut groove on the pipe, this coupling system improves wear life and offers improved pressure ratings. Plus, the total weight (43.8lbs) of the coupling remains below NIOSH guidelines of 51lbs for single person lifting. Compared to other premium couplings on the market, the UD-8 coupling is safer, more affordable, and easier to install and maintain.
OUTLASTS AND OUTPERFORMS THE COMPETITION EACH AND EVERY TIME
Ultra duty 8” High pressure forged coupling
Competitor Couplings
Safer
Ductile forgings bend before breaking, causing pressure loss before catastrophic failure.
Safety
Brittle castings do not bend and can result in a violent failure mode.
Better User Experience
At almost half the weight (43.8lbs/19.9kg) and with a simple 2-bolt, slip-fit design, installation and removal are quick and easy.
Ease
Weighing approximately 80lbs (36.2kg) with 4 bolts, installation is cumbersome.
Better Value
Better design and manufacturing result in a more reasonable price point.
Value
Higher cost without added benefits.
