Joining Systems
Fab-Tech PermaShield™ duct accommodates fast and easy installation with its joint systems including EZ Clamp, cast ring and angle ring options
When you specify EZ for a system joint, companion angle rings with multiple fasteners are replaced with a single fastener and band style clamp. This joining system provides safe, reliable joints without sacrificing flexibility or integrity. The combination of half round backing rings and the unique angled clamp band provides excellent clamping force with the added benefit of ease of installation.
- The EZ-Clamp system is FM 4922 approved and is ideal for tool hook-up and drain line use. Available for 2" (50.8 mm) - 14" (355.6 mm) diameter sizes.
- Cast rings available for 4" (101.6 mm) - 14" (355.6 mm) diameter sizes.
- SS Stainless steel angle rings available for 4" (101.6 mm) - 128" (3251.2 mm) diameter sizes.
- BI Black iron angle rings available for 16" (406.4 mm) - 120" (3048 mm) diameter sizes.
Fab-Tech PermaShield installations use half of the labor of FRP system installations, and unlike FRP and "glued" plastic systems, there is no need for grinding, sanding, prep work or the use of malodorous epoxies and heating blankets, which is especially important in cleanroom settings.
Using the EZ-Clamp joining system can save an additional 40% labor over other PermaShield joining systems. EZ-Clamp duct and fittings have the ability to be field-modified (shortened, add nozzles or drain ports) and the stainless steel exterior will never need painting.
