September 20th, 2010: EASY-REP
EASY-REP is a rubber flexible repair coupling supplied in an easy to install kit form for ALL pipe materials available from DN 300. EASY-REP is designed to allow pipe repairs to be carried out to sewerage and drainage pipelines which have been subject to local damage or cracks, without the need to replace the section of pipe or even to stop the flow of water whilst carrying out the repair. EASY-REP can be used to repair low pressure pipes of ALL pipe materials and once installed in accordance with the instructions, repairs are reliable, permanent and will resist an internal water pressure of up to 0.5 bar. EASY-REP has been designed to the same profile of our Standard Coupling Canada Plus, Type 2B, with a width of 190 mm and is manufactured to customer´s specific size requirements. It is essential to measure the outside diameter of the damaged pipe to ensure the best possible repair.  Data Sheet     read more

June 17th, 2010: Features & Benefits of MÜCHER Couplings
Mücher Dichtungen, the world-wide market leader for flexible couplings, is permanently setting new standards with regards to quality and product innovation. Mücher couplings withstand 2.5 bar of internal water pressure compared to just 1.0 bar offered by our competitors. Mücher use TOX-Technology to join the clamps to the shear band. Our competitors spot weld their clamps which burns the stainless steel, possibly resulting in corrosion. The unique "lock in place" profile of the rubber sleeve ensures that the clamps and shear band remain firmly in place during transit. For ease of installation, our new patent-registered bolting system enables the installer to use a standard 13mm socket wrench instead of an awkward open ended spanner. Mücher Standard Couplings comply with and exceed the requirements of the Water Industry Specification (WIS 4-41-01) and have recently been certified with the European Technical Approval. Our bespoke couplings are made to your customer´s pipe size by our fabrication teams in Germany and England. Read more and download data sheet below:  Data Sheet
