The Alfarapid joint manufactured by Plastica Alfa is ideal for connecting grooved pipes (Victaulic type) and is used in water treatment, ultrafiltration, irrigation, plumbing and thermal hydraulics. It stands out for ease and speed of assembly, saving time and money during installation and maintenance, as welding, flanging, threading and gluing are not required.
The joint, made of UV-stabilised PAGF, is a viable alternative to metal systems. The gasket is made of EPDN and the bolts supplied are made of galvanised steel (on request: bolts in inox stainless steel and antigrip nuts silicon bronze).
