Reduce your maintenance and stocking costs with Uniflex pipe coupling. Uniflex has a spiral wound gasket that has successfully solved frequent leakage, intensive maintenance and stocking difficulties associated with ground joint pipe unions. A spreadsheet program is available upon request which calculates guaranteed savings when using Uniflex.

- No energy losses - from expensive steam and process fluid leaks, a spiral-wound gasket ensures a leak-tight seal
- Lower maintenance/labor costs - replacement of the union housing is eliminated. Only a change of gasket is required when the Uniflex coupling is disassembled. No need to spring the pipe during make-up or disassembly, It is less costly to make and break than flanges
- Lower inventory costs-only a few Uniflex pipe couplings and gasket kits in each size are required to back up installations, one Uniflex satisfies all pressure series of flanges in pipe sizes 1/2 - 2 IN
- Ease of Installation - the gasket is held firmly in place with a patented retainer. There is no danger of damaging the seal during installation as it is fully protected from overtorquing
- Welded piping systems -with the gasket removed while welding coupling into the piping, the danger of damaging the seal is eliminated, costly removal of sections of pipe to replace leaky unions is eliminated
- Component interchangeability -all components of the Uniflex couplings, IN each size class, are fully interchangeable. end connections can be socket weld, threaded, or a combination of both
- SUA-SW socketweld carbon steel
