About C153 push-on fittings
C153 push-on fittings are compact ductile iron fittings: the straight section of the body is left out, so each fitting is shorter and lighter without reducing strength or flow characteristics. The bells use the TYTON JOINT push-on bell design, made by SIGMA under license from the United States Pipe and Foundry Company.
The line covers bends, tees, crosses, wyes, reducers, caps, plugs and adapters. Weights and dimensions for standard fittings are in the catalog.
Highlights
- 350 psi water working pressure, 4 to 24 in.
- Joint deflection up to 5°, per the TYTON JOINT bell design
- Standard, bare, FBE and zinc options on the price lists
