Starflange® – Series 3200

Restrained Adapter Flange Coupling for Ductile Iron Pipe - Sizes 3" - 36"

Information

StarFlange™ Series 3200 is a restrained adapter flange coupling device designed to connect plain end ductile iron pipe to a flanged pipe, valve or fitting. A ductile iron flange body provides the flange connection and includes an O-ring gasket that seals with the mating flange. The Stargrip® Series 3000 provides restraint for the plain end ductile iron pipe. StarFlangeTM Series 3200 pressure ratings listed on the next page are based on use with PC 350 or TC 50 (or above) ductile iron pipe.

Restrained adapter flange is to be used to connect plain end ductile iron pipe to a flanged pipe, valve or fitting. The device shall be manufactured of high strength ductile iron in accordance to ASTM A536 Grade 65-45-12 for all sizes. The restrainer portion of the device shall be of wedge type design with torque limiting bolts to insure proper engagement of the wedges.

Applicable dimensions shall conform to ANSI/AWWA C111/A21.15, C110/A21.10 and C153/A21.53. Flange ends to meet ANSI Class 125/150 & ANSI/ AWWA C115/A21.15 drill pattern.

The restrained adapter flange shall have a maximum working pressure of 350 PSI for sizes 3″-16″ and 250 PSI for sizes 18″–36″. All sizes shall have a minimum safety factor of 2:1 (i.e. twice the maximum rating of the StarFlange™ Series 3200). Restrained flange adapter shall be Star® Pipe Products StarFlange™ Series 3200 or an approved equal.
