‡ The Groove Width “B” dimension is listed for information only.
IMPORTANT –
Grooving pipe to AGS specifications enlarges the pipe length by approximately 1/8 inch (0.125 inch/3.2 mm) for each groove. For a pipe length with an AGS groove at each end, the
length will grow approximately 1/4 inch (0.250 inch/6.4 mm) total. Therefore, the cut length should be adjusted to accommodate this growth.
EXAMPLE:
If you need a 24-inch/610-mm length of pipe that will contain an AGS groove at each end, cut the pipe to a length of 23 3/4 inches/603 mm to allow for this growth.
NOTICE
When grooving pipe for use with Style W07 or Style W77 Couplings, Victaulic roll grooving
•
tools must be equipped with Victaulic AGS (RW) roll sets. Style W07 and Style W77
Couplings MUST NOT be installed on pipe that is prepared with original-type grooving roll
sets.
The Groove Width “B” dimension will be achieved with properly maintained Victaulic tools
•
equipped with Victaulic AGS (RW) roll sets.
It is critical to measure the Groove Diameter “C” dimension, along with the Gasket Seat “A”
•
dimension and the Flare Diameter “F” dimension. These measurements must be within the
specifications listed in the table below for proper joint performance.
