When pipe diameters differ significantly, a fabricated bush can be just the answer you need. The bush is effectively an elastomeric sleeve of varying thickness which is put over the smaller pipe to create a larger diameter which can then accommodate a standard coupling.

VIPSeal^® bushes are engineered from the same high quality elastomeric rubber as our seals whether standard (VSC), large (VLC) or extra wide (VSCW/VLCW). Most bushes are fabricated individually to meet the specific site requirement. Outside dimensions should be specified at time of ordering.

Fabricated & moulded bushes applications & benefits:

Benefits

Manufactured from high grade materials ensuring high performance and long service life
3 Manufactured to suit specific differences in pipe outside diameters
3 Conforms to WIS 4-41-01 when used in conjunction with a VIPSeal® Standard Coupling
3 Can be used where there is an increase or reduction in pipe size

Applications

Used when the outside diameters of pipes are significantly different
To be used when the application is required to conform to the WIS standard
Available in a variety of thicknesses
