4.8. FOR SHOWERS WITH VICTAULIC

FITTINGS:
4.8.1. Disassembly - Piping systems must always be depressurized and drained before
attempting disassembly and removal of any VICTAULIC

piping products. Failure to do so
could result in serious personal injury, property damage, improper installation, joint
leakage or joint failure.
4.8.2. Check pipe ends: Pipe must be free from indentations, projections, or roll marks on
exterior from the end to the groove, to assure a leak tight seat for the gasket.
4.8.3. Check gasket and lubricate: Apply a thin coat of silicone lubricant to gasket lips and
outside of gasket. Install gasket: Place gasket over pipe end, being sure gasket lip does
not overhang pipe ends.
4.8.4. Join pipe ends: Align and bring two pipe ends together and slide gasket into position
centered between the grooves on each pipe. No portion of the gasket should extend into
the groove on either pipe.
4.8.5. Install housing: Place housing over gasket, being sure the housing keys engage into the
grooves.
4.8.6. Install nuts: Insert bolts and finger tighten nuts.
4.8.7. Tighten nuts: Tighten nuts alternately and equally until housing bolt pads are firmly
together - metal-to-metal . Excessive nut tightening is not necessary. Note : Uneven
tightening may cause gasket to pinch.
