Tyco Products 57730ACP Rigid Coupling Size 3

Product Description

The TYCO PRODUCTS 57730ACP is a rigid coupling from the 577 model series, designed to create a fixed, zero-flex joint between pipe segments in fire protection and related piping systems. Rigid couplings in this class transmit both axial and rotational loads across the joint, preventing any angular or linear movement at the connection point. This part is sold as a single unit and is intended for installation by licensed fire protection contractors or qualified pipefitters working on sprinkler and suppression system piping.

The 57730ACP is suited for use in fire sprinkler piping installations where a rigid joint is required by design or code, typically in commercial or industrial settings. Rigid couplings are commonly specified on branch lines, mains, and cross-mains where pipe deflection or movement must be eliminated. Installers should verify that the pipe size, pipe material, and groove dimensions match the coupling specifications before installation.

Key Features

• Rigid coupling design prevents angular, axial, and rotational pipe movement at the joint
• Part of the established 577 model series from Tyco Products
• Size 3 nominal pipe configuration
• Sold as a single unit for exact replacement or new installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit coupling for grooved piping systems requiring a rigid joint at size 3 nominal pipe diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed fire protection contractor or qualified pipefitter in accordance with NFPA 13 and applicable local codes. Verify that pipe ends are properly grooved to the correct profile and dimensions before seating the coupling. Depressurize and drain the affected piping section completely before removing or installing any coupling. Do not substitute gasket materials or housing components from other coupling series or manufacturers without confirming compatibility.
