\n\tA contractor in Hungary working on a main where water hammer was a problem turned to Viking Johnson’s UltraGrip flange adaptors to eliminate the risk of connections being pulled apart by sudden surges.
\n\n\tUltraGrip DN300 flange adaptors from the company’s Hungarian distributor Kristaly were used to connect valves and sections of pipe during modification of the main, in the city of Pecs in the Southern Transdanubia region.
\n\n\tThe unique ‘anti-pullout’ gripping mechanism, which holds the pipe more firmly as pressure increases, works on almost every combination of pipe materials.
\n\n\tUltraGrip can also accommodate differences in diameter of up to 44mm and, if the grippers are removed, allows for as much as eight degrees of angularity between pipes.
\n\n\tThis flexibility means that pipes of different materials and diameters can often be joined by a single UltraGrip coupling – especially convenient in Eastern Europe, where mains were sometimes laid using pipes from different countries, each of which manufactured to its own standards and dimensions.
\n\n\tAs well as flange adaptors the UltraGrip range includes couplings and end caps, and was recently expanded with the addition of reducing couplings and pecatadaptors.
\n\n\tAll Viking Johnson products are available across Europe from the company’s extensive and growing network of local distributors, which currently encompasses almost 30 countries.
