• LC800 Large Diameter Drain Coupling (800-899mm): Suited for larger drainage applications, this coupling delivers reliability under heavy flow and pressure conditions.
• LC1000 Large Diameter Drain Coupling (1000-1099mm): Designed for very large diameter pipes, this coupling offers maximum strength and durability in high-capacity sewer and drainage systems.

These large-diameter shear band couplings are built to support pipe stability and alignment across diverse settings, making them crucial for applications requiring high resistance and dependability in demanding sewer and drainage networks.

Adaptability for Straight and Adaptor Connections

Flexseal shear banded couplings are compatible with pipes of the same diameter and can also accommodate different-sized pipes using an adapter bush. This flexibility makes them ideal for complex sewer and drainage networks, enabling a precise fit across varying pipe sizes.

Applications for the 190mm Large Diameter Coupling

Designed for diverse applications, the 190mm large diameter coupling can be used independently or with bushes, making it suitable for construction, maintenance, and repairs of sewer and drainage pipelines. Key uses include:

• Connecting Plain-Ended Pipes: Ensures secure joints between plain pipe ends.
• Pipeline Repairs and Maintenance: Ideal for restoring damaged or aging pipelines.
• Post-Construction Connections: Enables easy additions to existing pipelines.
• Rocker Pipe Installations: Suitable for connecting rocker pipes outside structures or manholes.
• Joining Different Diameters: Use bushes to connect pipes of varying sizes.

Enhanced Design for Effective Installation

Flexseal large-diameter couplings feature high-torque bolts and a 13mm socket with a ⅜” square drive, providing consistent pressure for a reliable, watertight seal. This design enables quick, efficient installation with a secure fit, critical for preventing leaks and ensuring long-term system integrity.
