About the MJ Connector

The SIGMA MJ Connector joins two mechanical joint bells, such as an MJ valve and an MJ fitting, with no pipe between them. Its compact design gives a bolt-through restraint option when space is limited, and the two joints are connected with one accessory kit instead of two.

Close-coupled connections can be put together before the parts go to the job site. Use the standard accessory pack with C153 compact fittings and valves. Full body C110 fittings and some butterfly valves with thick bolt flanges take a long-bolt pack: ask your regional team for it.

Questions and answers4 questions buyers ask about the MJ Connector

Where do I find the price?

On SIGMA's price lists. Where an item is on a posted list, the View price list button near the top of this page opens it, and every posted list is on the Price Lists page. SIGMA sells through waterworks distributors, and your distributor sets your price. For contract pricing, ask your regional team.

What comes in the kit?

One MJ x MJ connector, two SBR mechanical joint gaskets, T-head bolts with nuts, eye bolts where the size takes them, and T-head spacers. The catalog lists the counts for each size.

Which accessory pack do I need?

Match it to the fittings and valves. The standard pack is for C153 compact fittings and valves. Full body C110 fittings and some butterfly valves with thick bolt flanges take a long-bolt pack: ask your regional team for it. Type 304 and 316 stainless steel and blue fluoropolymer packs are on the price list too.

What do the eye bolts and spacers do?

The eye bolt's shape makes it easier to bolt the connector to some wide-bodied valves. The T-head spacer raises the nut so it does not hit the fitting when you tighten it.

The fittings it joins, and the restraints for them.

C153 and C110 MJ fittings, and ONE-LOK restraints for the mechanical joints on ductile iron and PVC pipe.
