KRAUSZ Launches The HYMAX GRIP Swiveljoint, The Latest Technology In The Water Industry, At ACE 17

KRAUSZ, the innovator in water pipe repair technology, continues to lead the industry with the launch of the one-of-a-kind HYMAX GRIP Swiveljoint, at the ACE ANNUAL CONFERENCE & EXPOSITION, Pennsylvania convention center.

HYMAX GRIP Swiveljoint, designed for both the pipe-repair and new construction markets, can connect and restrain two pipes at any angle from 0° to 90°, providing an efficient solution for field situations involving irregular angles between pipes. The product can do the job of multiple products that would otherwise be needed, saving space on the truck and time in the ditch. 

“No matter what angle installers need to join two pipes,” said Krausz USA’s sales vice president Cindy Kransler, “the Swiveljoint can connect them easily and quickly. Installers can reduce their inventories and crews can make this kind of repair with fewer products in the truck as the HYMAX Swiveljoint can do the job of multiple products.”

Based on the market-leading GRIP restraint by Krausz, this one-of-a-kind wide-range product includes all of the HYMAX GRIP's advantages: ready to use, stab-fit design- enabling faster and safer installation; unique radial gripping system that prevents pipe motion; universal gripping teeth that fit metal and plastic pipes; up to 4° dynamic deflection per end that reduces future pipe damage, saving money on constant pipe repairs; a patented hydraulically-assisted gasket with 2-stage sealing and more.

“Considering its capacity to join pipes at any angle, its stab-fit design and light weight,” said Kransler, “the Swiveljoint is an ideal restraint solution that allows crews to go into the ditch, make the repair quickly, and go home safely.”
