Clamp coupling GEBO QA 1/2" female threaded for steel pipes, model 17.195.00.01

GEBO QA clamp coupling with a 1/2" female thread is a mechanical sleeve designed to join or repair steel pipes by providing a secure threaded outlet. The coupling fits over the outer diameter of a steel pipe and creates a pressure-resistant connection without the need for welding. It is intended for plumbing and industrial piping systems where a threaded transition on a steel pipe is required for attaching valves, fittings, or other threaded components.

Advantages

The clamp coupling offers a practical, on-site installation method that reduces downtime compared to hot works or replacement. Its mechanical design enables fast assembly with standard hand tools and creates a reliable seal on prepared steel pipe surfaces. The integrated female thread provides a direct connection point for 1/2" threaded fittings, simplifying retrofit and repair tasks while maintaining the integrity of the existing pipe run.

Suitable for

• Repairing damaged or corroded steel pipe sections where a threaded outlet is needed
• Adding valves, taps, or threaded fittings to existing steel pipelines
• Temporary or permanent on-site piping repairs in plumbing and industrial installations
• Situations where welding is impractical or prohibited

Key specifications

• Type: clamp (mechanical) coupling with female threaded outlet
• Thread size: 1/2" female thread suitable for standard 1/2" fittings
• Intended pipe material: steel pipes
• Connection method: external clamp sleeve with sealing element (mechanical seal)
• Typical application: plumbing and industrial pipe systems requiring a threaded transition

How to use

Prepare the steel pipe by cleaning the external surface and removing paint, rust, or scale at the location of the coupling to ensure proper sealing. Position the clamp coupling over the pipe so the threaded outlet aligns with the desired orientation. Tighten the clamp screws or bolts uniformly using appropriate hand tools to compress the sealing element and secure the sleeve. After installation, verify the mechanical grip and seal by applying appropriate test pressure or performing a leak test according to the system requirements. Attach a 1/2" male threaded fitting to the coupling's outlet to complete the connection.

Usage recommendations

Ensure compatibility between the clamp coupling and the actual pipe outer diameter before installation. Follow site safety rules and pressure testing procedures. Use corrosion-appropriate materials and, where necessary, apply protective measures or coatings for long-term installations in aggressive environments.
