Common Applications
- Pressure systems (potable water, mining, industrial plants)
- Drainage and sewer lines
- Fire protection systems
- Temporary or emergency repairs
- Vibration and movement zones (e.g., pump stations)
- Joining dissimilar materials (PVC to HDPE, steel to ductile iron)
Selecting the Right Pipe Coupling
Application | Recommended Type |
---|---|
Joining same-sized pipes | Flex Grip / Metal Lock / Straub Metal |
Repair clamp for leaking section | Orbit Open Flex / Straub Open Flex |
Joining different OD pipes | Stepped Coupling / Step Flex |
Plastic-to-metal pipe join | Orbit Combo Lock / Straub Combi Grip |
Fire systems | Straub Fire Fence / Orbit FP Coupling |
Misalignment or movement | Flex or Open Flex Series |
Installation Notes
- All couplings require minimal pipe prep – no welding, threading, or beveling.
- Torque values are indicated on each coupling.
- Open-style couplings (Straub Open Flex, Orbit Open Flex) are ideal for retrofit work.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Can I use Orbit or Straub couplings on potable water lines?
Yes – Orbit couplings are fitted with WRAS-approved EPDM rubber seals suitable for potable water. - What’s the difference between restrained and non-restrained couplings?
Restrained couplings (e.g., Flex Grip, Metal Grip) prevent axial pipe movement. Non-restrained versions (e.g., Flex/Open Flex) allow for movement and vibration but need pipe anchoring. - Do you ship across Australia?
Yes – we offer free delivery Australia-wide on most couplings. - What’s the lead time?
Most Orbit models are in stock and ship within 1–2 business days. Straub lead times vary based on model and size – contact us for ETA. - What if my pipe diameters don’t match exactly?
Use a stepped coupling or consult us for a custom-fit recommendation.
