JM Eagle™ Ring-Tite PVC Pipe

This information is furnished in order to provide a brief review of the installation requirements for JM Eagle™ Ring-Tite PVC pipe. This is not a replacement for the full version JM Eagle™ Installation Guide. Please refer to the complete Installation Guide or contact JM Eagle™ Product Assurance directly.

  1. Check to see that the rubber gasket is properly seated in the bell groove, and that the bell and spigot are clean before assembly.
  2. Apply the approved lubricant to the spigot end of the pipe only, paying particular attention to the bevel. The coating should be equivalent to a brush coat of enamel.
  3. Assemble the joint to the black reference mark only.
  4. If undue resistance to insertion of the spigot is encountered, or the reference mark does not reach the flush position, disassemble the joint and check the position of the rubber gasket.
  5. There is no angular deflection allowed in the pipe joint. Any curvature of the line is attained by bending the body of the pipe – Do Not Bend At The Joint! Exception: Pipe 14” and larger can be installed with an angular deflection at the joint of up to 1.5 degrees.
  6. Prior to backfilling, check to see that the reference mark is flush with the end of the bell.
