Mueller announced that the HYMAX grip restraint is available on the 4 to 12-in. A-2361 Resilient Wedge Gate valves (RWGV) and Super Centurion 250 fire hydrants. The grip restraint is a versatile, single-bolt restraint capable of joining a wide selection of pipe types and diameters—resulting in easier, more flexible installations.

“Mueller is excited to offer Resilient Wedge Gate Valves and Super Centurion hydrants using our patented, reliable HYMAX grip restraint,” said Adam Donnelly, VP and general manager of the Iron Gate valves product lines at Mueller. “We continue to look for new ways to help our customers realize efficiencies and lower costs through use of our products. Combining the Mueller RWGV and Super Centurion hydrant with the HYMAX Grip restraint is a perfect example of how our customers will be able to leverage easier, lower cost installation with the products they already know and trust.”

The factory assembled grip restraint significantly reduces installation time and effort and—coupled with the A-2361 RWGV and Super Centurion 250 fire hydrant—it helps to drive improvements in planning, efficiency and cost savings within the water network.
