a �,t joint which 1 promotes fast, posi- tive make- up and pre- vents "back - F out" problems during cure time. These features assist the installer and assure economical installation. • Reliability - Smith Fiber- glass Products fiberglass pip- ing is designed and manufactured to meet the requirements of governmen- tal environmental regulations, in- cluding EPA. Fiberglass piping differs from other products which are designed for easy replacement in the event of failure. REFER TO BULLETIN B2150 for dimensions of available UL/ULC Listed RED THREAD IIA product and containment fittings. Easy, Economical Installation The exclusive T.A.B. joint is factory - installed on product piping. Spigots and bonded -on coupling ends are threaded with special profile double - lead threads. The standard joining procedure for field -made epoxy bonds is achieved by the mechanical locking action of matching bell and spigot tapered angles. Compatible adhesives from Smith Fiberglass Products are used to bond the piping system. The components needed to make a bond, along with a detailed instruction sheet, are included with each adhesive kit. When RED THREAD IIA product pipe is cut to length on the jobsite, the cut end must be retapered. Tap- ering tools, available from Smith Fiberglass Products (Bulletin No. F6600 and F6625), quickly apply the proper matching taper similar to a pencil sharpener. Plain, unthreaded field -made tapers can be joined with factory -installed T.A.B. joint coupled ends. Either T.A.B. spigots or field - made tapers may be joined with belled fittings. When connecting containment pipe and fittings, plain ends of the contain- ment pipe are machined or thoroughly sanded to accept the two-piece UL/ ULC Listed containment fitting. Match- ing adhesives are used to bond the system.
