They are intended for nominal pipe sizes 2 in. (50 mm) through 12 in. (300 mm). Full-encirclement repair clamps shall be manufactured completely from stainless-steel or a combination of stainless-steel band and cast ductile-iron lug, along with stainless or low-alloy carbon steel bolts and nuts, depending on service requirements and the purchaser’s documents. Tapped service connection outlets may be provided and shall range from 1/2 in. through 3 in. (12 mm through 75 mm) sizes., with either NPTor AWWA-type threaded connections.
