• The UL classified firewall penetration system is simple,
easy to install and effective.
• Couplings for KIMAX Glass Drainlines require no field
beading, welding or fusion. To assemble a drain or vent
system with the KIMAX bead-to-plain coupling, the pipe
is merely cut, inserted into the coupling, and a bolt is
tightened. The two pieces of pipe can even be up to 4°
out of line.

The installed cost of a KIMAX Glass Drainline system is

cost-competitive and often less expensive than other drain-
line systems.

Right: Plastic systems do not provide joint deflection capability.

All couplings are not alike. KIMAX B/P Couplings are de-
signed to stand up to harsh operating conditions. Tested by
an independent testing laboratory, KIMAX B/P Couplings
were found to be sound even after simulated 20-year test-
ing.

KIMAX® B/P Couplings Passed the Following Tests

• Simulated 20-year underground corrosion test: Immer-
sion in hydrochloric, nitric and sulfuric acid (pH of 2.6) or
sodium hydroxide (pH of 8.0) for 15 days at 186°F, KIMAX
B/P Couplings still did not leak and retained their
strength. They will not pull apart, even with a 375-pound
pull force.
• Thermocycle test: With the two pipes deflected 4°, the
KIMAX B/P Coupling was subjected to thermocycles from
0°F to 200°F. A 25 psi pressure check showed no leakage
after any of the temperature cycles, and a 375-pound pull
would not pull the coupling apart.
• Deflection testing: While under 25 psi internal pressure,
the coupling was flexed over its 4° deflection range
15,000 times. No leakage occured and the coupling still
would not pull apart with a 375-pound pull.

(Details of the B/P coupling tests, performed by Pittsburgh

Testing Laboratories, are available upon request.)

needs only to be cut.

KIMAX® Glass Drainlines for Long-Lasting,

Durable Underground Installations
The toughness and durability of KIMAX® Glass Drainline is
demonstrated by its superior performance in thousands of
underground installations. Underground drains have more
exacting performance criteria than above-ground drains.

KIMAX Glass Pipe is corrosion resistant, it can handle future

anticipated requirements. And glass pipe is not affected by
external corrosion either. KIMAX Glass Drainlines are un­
affected by lime, moisture, and other materials in the soil.
The smooth, non-porous surface of a KIMAX Glass Drainline
minimizes plugging and scale build-up – an important fea-
ture for buried pipe.

KIMAX Glass Drainlines are also tough enough to withstand

the rigors of underground installation methods. EPS*-covered
KIMAX Glass Drainlines meet or exceed ASTM requirements
for buried heavy schedule cast iron pipe. EPS-covered KIMAX
Glass Drainline passes the ASTM three-edge bearing test,
the impact test, and the earth loading test. (Testing report
from Pittsburgh Testing Laboratory available uopn request.)

KIMAX B/P Couplings not only resist internal and external

corrosion, but their ability to deflect up to 4° without leak-
ing allows buried KIMAX Glass Drainlines to flex with shift- Scoring head assembly
