Abstract: A tube coupling (10) which includes a tubular, electrically conductive housing (11), a seal (12) for sealing against the outside of a tube, a substantially annular and electrically conductive grab ring (13) for gripping the outside of a tube and an annular cartridge ring (15) between an inner surface of the housing (11) and the grab ring (13). The cartridge ring (15) includes a projection (30) that projects radially inwardly and is positioned so that upon insertion of a tube into the tube coupling (10), an edge of the grab ring (13) bears against the projection (30) and the cartridge (15) bears against a facing surface of the housing (11) to provide electrically continuity between the grab ring (13) and the housing (11).

Abstract: A concrete structure with a corrugated bottom surface has a pipe passing through a passage in the structure. A fire stop assembly has a first portion with a split plate, split cage, split intumescent ring, split inner smoke ring and split outer smoke ring each fastened together to rotate together about a hinge on the split cage. The fire stop assembly has a second portion of the split plate, split cage, split intumescent ring, split inner smoke ring and split outer smoke ring fastened together to rotate together about a hinge. The first and second portions have free ends that spread apart to fit around the tube in an open position, and close around the tube in a closed position.

Abstract: A tube fitting for connection to a tube includes a main body structure and a tube liner. The main body structure is configured to receive an end of the tube and fluidly connect the tube to another component. The tube liner is positioned at least partially within the main body structure and is configured to extend into the tube. The main body structure and the tube liner are configured such that, when the tube is fully inserted into the tube fitting, the end of the tube is positioned at a predetermined depth within the tube fitting, and the main body structure and the tube liner cooperate together to provide an audible indication to indicate that the tube has been fully inserted into the tube fitting.

Abstract: An excess flow valve (EFV) is disclosed that has an efficient and durable construction. The EFV is efficient in terms of both size and cost. It is durable partly due to a design with few parts and also because of optional all metal construction. In some embodiments, an intumescent material is included that expands to close off the valve by pressing the valve plug into sealing engagement with the valve seat and permanently stopping the flow of gas when a pressure differential or flow velocity threshold is exceeded.

Abstract: A tube coupling having a coupling body with an opened ended throughway to receive a tube. A collet located in the open end of the through way has a ring and flexible arms extending generally axially of the ring into the throughway. The throughway has a tapered surface convergent towards the open end and the collet arms have heads at their distal ends for engaging both of the tapered surface and a tube extending through the collet. A collet lock is formed on the collet, the collet having a locked rotary position and an unlocked rotary position. One of the body and the collet is provided with a cam surface and the other is provided with a cam follower, the cam surface being provided to provide the locked and unlocked positions. The disclosure also extends to the collet.

Abstract: The present application relates to a water system that includes a prefabricated fitting tee for use with a water heater. The prefabricated fitting tee includes a fitting tee body that has a first port, a second port, and a third port. The first and third ports can be aligned along a main axis and the second port can be aligned along an axis angled relative to the main axis. The fitting tee body defines an interior passageway that is in fluid communication with the first, second, and third ports. One of the first and second ports is configured for connecting to a water inlet conduit for supplying water from an external source, the other one of the first and second ports is configured for connecting to a pressure relief or pressure absorption mechanism. The prefabricated fitting tee does not include a check valve for preventing flow from the first port to the third port and no check valve for preventing flow from the second port to the third port. A swivel nut can be rotatably mounted at the third port of the prefabricated fitting tee to provide an interconnection to the water heater. When the swivel nut is in a first condition, the swivel nut allows the prefabricated fitting tee to be rotated relative to the water heater about the main axis to allow a rotational orientation of the second port to be established. When the swivel nut is in a second condition, the swivel nut clamps the prefabricated fitting tee in the established rotational orientation.

Abstract: A sealing device is provided for use with a fitting. The fitting has circular port and a flow path with a longitudinal axis. A circular port encircles a portion of the flow path opposite the port with the sealing device inserted into the port. The sealing device has a circular top with two opposing surfaces depending therefrom but inclined so the surfaces are closer at the top. A continuous sidewall joins the periphery of the two surfaces. The opposing surfaces are inclined and spaced apart further at the top than at an end opposite the top. A cylindrical hole through the opposing surfaces encircles the flow path during use.
