Here are some common applications and uses of
grooved joint fittings in plumbing and piping systems:
Fire sprinkler systems
Very commonly used to join pipes in wet and dry fire sprinkler installations. Grooved joints are fast and reliable.
Industrial plants
Piping networks for factories, processing plants, power facilities etc. often utilize grooved fittings.
Chilled water systems
Used to connect copper, steel or other pipes for chilled water HVAC applications like coil connections.
Commercial buildings
Plumbing in large buildings such as hospitals, schools, malls etc. frequently specifies grooved joints.
Food processing
Hygienic grooved fittings avoid collecting debris inside compared to threaded or flanged joints.
Marine applications
Shipboard piping, ventilation and seawater systems may use grooved joints that withstand vibration.
District heating/cooling
Underground pre-insulated pipe manifolds and branch-offs can use grooved connections.
Underground utilities
Gas, water, sewer and other piping buried in ground or beneath floors is often grooved for ease of joining.
Dam projects
Complex piping arrangements transporting water for hydroelectric power generation may incorporate grooved fittings.
Connecting to equipment
Features like pumps, heat exchangers, valves are commonly grooved-connected for assembly/maintenance access.
Their speed of assembly and reliability make grooved joints very popular for large commercial/industrial piping applications.
