What is a victaulic fitting?

A Victaulic fitting is really a grooved end fitting that is used with grooved end pipe, joined with a coupling. These are found on a variety of commercial and industrial piping systems. Victaulic is the company that originated the grooved piping method so the name "Victaulic" is their registered trade name. The correct generic terminology for these fittings is simply grooved end fittings.


Why was Victaulic plainlock style 90 coupling discontinued?

The Victaulic plainlock style 90 coupling was discontinued primarily due to advancements in technology and materials that led to the development of more efficient and higher-performing coupling designs. Additionally, changes in industry standards and customer preferences for improved features, such as enhanced sealing capabilities and easier installation, contributed to its phase-out. The company likely focused on streamlining its product offerings to prioritize more innovative solutions that better meet modern piping system needs.


When was Victaulic created?

Will the victaulic coupling dampen the vibration from the source equipment?

The Victaulic system will dampen a small amount of the vibration from the source equipment due to the type of connection it is, pulse and axial forces due to the displacment of the product or the action of the delivery equipment or just the expansion of the piping will not be dampened. I believe there are fittings available to address the problem of vibration transfer. cheers
