Manufacturing Filament Wound Pipe

Custom interior liners, extra wall thickness, special flanges, and many new plastic resins to choose from are all reasons that make filament wound pipe practical and economical.

Fitting Joining Methods

There are three pipe joining methods for Dura-Wound Pipe systems:

Butt Wrap Joint - This is the most common and economical method to use and provides a stronger joint than the pipe itself. For long runs of buried high pressure systems, it is the most dependable of all joint methods.
Bell And Spigot Joint - This joint system is fast and dependable. On large pipe systems where high pressure is involved, the bell spigot can be used for alignment with an over wrap to insure a leak proof joint.
Flanged Joint - Flanged joints are recommended where the pipe system is to be connected to pumps, valves, etc. or when the pipe system is to be disconnected often. Dura-Wound Flanges are of two types - Vanstone type and full face fiberglass. Both types can be butt wrapped or bell and spigot joined to pipe ends.
