2" Two-Piece Cast Iron Lever Clamp

The Dixon L02BU uses a two-piece coupling body that assembles around properly prepared grooved pipe ends. This configuration provides a mechanical connection without requiring threaded pipe ends or permanent joining methods.

Both coupling halves should seat evenly around the pipe grooves before the bolts are fully tightened. Confirm the pipe outside diameter, groove dimensions, and mating components before beginning installation.

The L02BU is manufactured from ductile iron and finished with rust-inhibiting paint for compatible industrial service. Dixon identifies the Series-L design for applications requiring moderate internal pressure or where coupling weight is a consideration.

Inspect both housing sections before installation for cracks, deformation, excessive corrosion, or damaged groove-engagement surfaces. Components showing visible damage should not be assembled into the piping system.

A nitrile rubber gasket is supplied with the L02BU and forms the sealing element between the two grooved pipe ends. Proper gasket positioning is important so the seal remains centered over the joint as the housing is tightened.

Inspect the gasket for cuts, flattening, contamination, or deterioration before installation. Confirm nitrile compatibility with the intended fluid, temperature, and service conditions before placing the connection into operation.

Dixon rates the L02BU for a maximum operating pressure of 500 PSI at 70°F when properly installed with compatible grooved components. Applications include general-purpose systems, mining, irrigation, and compressed-air service where limited deflection is required.

The Series-L coupling is designed for applications where deflection of 5% or less is required. Verify pressure, temperature, pipe OD, groove preparation, gasket compatibility, and complete system requirements before installation.
