Proco Series 450
The Proco Series 450 Rubber Sleeve Type Pipe Connectors are constructed of neoprene rubber, and reinforced with impregnated woven nylon. Sealing beads are molded on the interior of the sleeve to provide extra sealing action for the clamping area. Internal reinforcing rings prevent deformation of the connector during surges or temporary negative pressure conditions. Outer reinforcement rings are added to provide even more external reinforcement.
Some notable features of the Proco Series 450 include:
- Absorption of pipe movement and stress
- Noise reduction
- Vibration isolation
- Electrolysis elimination
- Compensation for alignment / offset
- Protection against start-up and surge forces
