Flex Restraint

The Plasson Flex Restraint is used to provide axial restraint of PE pipe. It is a flexible bar that is fused to the pipe via electrofusion, creating a welded shoulder. This allows the restraint to anchor the pipe to structures like concrete walls or fix pipes to thrust blocks. It can also be used to restrain pipes during repairs using mechanical couplings. The Flex Restraint accommodates PE pipes from 6 to 63 inches and can withstand axial forces of up to 7,000 pounds. It is installed by clamping one or multiple restraints to the pipe with a ratchet tensioned strap.

Plasson Flex Restraint


For applications where axial restraint of a PE pipe is required
Plasson introduces the Flex Restraint:
The restraint is a flexible bar, which
is fused to the pipe by electrofusion
to create a welded shoulder that can
restrain the axial movement of pipes
in various applications:

Anchoring the pipe to a concrete


wall such as a manhole or tank.

Fixing a sinker or thrust block to the


pipe.

Restraining the pipe to a gasket bell


fitting to facilitate cross connection with
other piping systems.

Pipe repair by using a mechanical


un-restrained coupling.

Blocking pipe movement after


slip- lining
