Push-on-joint pipe vs mechanical-joint pipe?
Push on joints seal by the spigot end expanding (and thus compressing) the rubber gasket in the bell. A Mechanical joint compresses the gasket in the bell by pressing a gland follower against the gasket, by tightening bolts. They both achieve good seals when done according to makers instructions, but MJ joints are more work, and have bolts that can corrode and freeze. If there is an advantage to,MJ joints I have been unable to find it. Note: MJ joints do NOT prevent pipe pull-out. The pipe must be restrained somehow, just as with push-on. David Philips PE

A pipe joint is a key component to any successful plumbing system. Pipe joints means the connection at the ends of pipes that ensures tight sealing and strength.
