CertainTeed Certa-Lok™ PVC pipe is the industry original metallic mechanically restrained joint system. Certa-Lok pipe and couplings provide a restrained joint by utilizing precision-machined grooves on the pipe and in the coupling/integral bell which, when aligned, allow a spline to be inserted. The result is a fully circumferential restrained joint that locks the pipe and coupling together. A flexible elastomeric seal (O-ring) in the coupling and/or integral bell provides a hydraulic seal.
If needed, Certa-Lok™ restrained joints can be easily disassembled, allowing for system changes, extension, movement or reuse of the entire system.
