2 02/18 CASING-TITE SEAL: The Casing-Tite Seal shall be 30 mil high temperature tape. FITTINGS: All FRP fittings shall be uninsulated and shall be compression molded or filament wound. All fittings shall be designed to be used with the carrier pipe. Fittings may be configured with spigot ends to match pipe and connect with Vee-Tite couplings or have a bell end with a taper to match a properly tapered spigot end, or a flanged end. Adhesive where required shall meet the requirements of the operating conditions of the system. Fittings shall be un-insulated for encasement in concrete thrust blocks. FLANGES: All FRP flanges shall be uninsulated and may be compression molded or filament wound. All flanges shall be designed to be used with the carrier pipe and meet ANSI B 16.5 with a 150-pound bolt hole circle and number of bolts. Full-face gaskets 1/8" thick with a durometer rating of 60-70 are recommended. WALL PENETRATION SLEEVES: Provide where piping passes through walls below and above grade, in floor, or in roof slabs, shall be schedule 40 or standard weight coated black steel pipe or shall be as specified by the Design Engineer. Space between the pipe OD and the sleeve ID shall never be less than 1/2”. Sleeves shall be held securely in proper position and location during construction. Sleeves shall be of sufficient length to pass through entire thickness of walls or slabs. Sleeves in floor slabs shall extend 2 inches above the finished floor. Refer to typical detain of wall penetration as shown. In existing concrete manholes or building walls, penetrations may be made using the "core drilling" method providing proper care is taken to drill the holes to the size needed and square to the line of the pipe. WALL PENETRATION SEALS: All wall penetrations shall be sealed to prevent water from entering the building or manhole. The sealing material shall be specified by the engineer. VEE-TITE APPLICATION ENGINEERING PIPE SYSTEM DESIGN: Standard design techniques and practices for VEE- TITE shall be used. Thermal Pipe Systems, Inc. Engineering Department may on request provide certain detailed design aspects of the piping for each project based on the project documents and drawings provided by the Design Engineer. It is understood that the project specifications and layout drawings will specify the type of service, location of the site, temperature and pressure classifications, soil conditions, general path and elevations of the system, location and design of manholes, known obstacles, size of the carrier pipe, and the maximum permissible heat losses. It is further understood that other requirements such as the type of pipe, the location size and capacity of valves, traps, pumps, anchors, controls, expansion devices and
