Grooved couplings are mechanical fittings used to connect two pieces of pipe together in piping systems. They consist of a grooved pipe end and a coupling that fits over the groove, secured with bolts or clamps.
Grooved Couplings
High Quality Grooved Couplings
SSM produces grooved couplings, which are mechanical fittings designed to connect two pieces of pipe in a piping system. These couplings consist of a pipe end with grooves and a coupling that fits over the grooves, secured by bolts or clamps for a secure connection.
Provided with a variety of ring options to maintain total pipe wall thickness for abrasive systems
- Sizes from 4 – 60″ | DN100 – DN1500
- Pressures up to 175 psi | 1207 kPa | 12 bar
Grooved Couplings Features
- Quick Installation: No welding or complex connections are required, allowing for fast installation.
- Flexibility: Adapts to different pipe sizes and materials within the piping system.
- Sealing Performance: Rubber gaskets typically ensure good sealing and prevent leakage.
- Vibration Resistance: Suitable for dynamic load applications, effectively absorbing vibrations.
Grooved Couplings with Rings
For connecting large-diameter pipes unsuitable for direct grooving, Steel-Ring adapters can be used to adapt the pipe. Select the appropriate fittings to ensure a secure and reliable connection. This method allows for effective integration of large-diameter pipes within the piping system.

Installation Steps for Grooved Couplings for Use with Steel-Ring Applications and Shouldered-End Pipe:
Step 1: Preparation:
Ensure the pipes and fittings are clean, removing dirt, grease, and other debris.
Check the dimensions and specifications of the pipes and fittings to ensure compatibility.
Step 2: Install Steel-Ring Adapter:
Slide the Steel-Ring adapter onto the end of the pipe, ensuring the correct orientation.
If necessary, use welding or other fastening methods to secure the adapter to the pipe end.
Step 3: Align the Pipes:
Align the pipe with the Steel-Ring adapter with another pipe, ensuring the axes of both pipes are aligned to avoid unnecessary stress.
Step 4: Install Grooved Coupling:
Place the Grooved Coupling over the grooves of the adapter, ensuring it fully covers the adapter’s grooves.
Use appropriate bolts and nuts to secure the coupling to the adapter, ensuring that all bolts are evenly tightened for a proper seal.
Step 5: Check and Test:
Perform a pressure test in the piping system to ensure there are no leaks at the connections.
Inspect all fasteners to ensure they are secure and reliable.
Step 6: Cleanup:
Clean the work area, removing any debris and tools generated during installation.
Notes:
Follow the specific installation instructions provided by the manufacturer.
During installation, wear appropriate personal protective equipment (such as gloves and safety glasses).
Regularly inspect the installed connections to ensure safety and reliability during use.
Following these steps, you can successfully install Grooved Couplings for Steel-Ring applications and shouldered-end pipes.
