Mueller announced the launch of HYMAX Pro dedicated size coupling, the newest addition to the HYMAX repair and installation portfolio for the North American market.
Applicable to the water/wastewater, irrigation and industrial markets, the HYMAX Pro dedicated size couplings are available from sizes 4 to 24 inches. The 4-inch to 10-inch sizes feature an industry-first, two-bolt, stab-fit construction. All couplings from this HYMAX Pro line conform to the AWWA C219, NSF 61 and NSF 372 standards for drinking water system components.
“Like all of our HYMAX products, we built this line with safety and product longevity in mind,” said Phil Elovic, general manager of Repair and Installation Services at Mueller. “The bolts are strategically positioned to face the top for quick installation; and the one-piece stab-fit construction is designed to eliminate dissembling and reassembling.”
The 304SS stainless-steel fusion-bonded epoxy-coated hardware and EPDM gasket are built into the standard product specifications of this line without additional cost.

During the hands-on “petting zoo” portion of the program, which involves smaller groups of attendees, one of the most frequently asked questions I get from people came up: What’s the difference between direct-acting and pilot-operated SOVs, and how do we make a choice?
