CAST-A-SEAL 12-08: Cast-In Convenience with Boot-Style Performance

CAST-A-SEAL 12-08 is a patented cast-in boot-style connector for 8” PVC pipe. Its unique design provides sure sealing and maximum flexibility of pipe installation. Available casting mandrels for either 48” and 60” manholes make it simple to put into production, and the patented design allows for replacement of the connector if the pipe changes or if the connector is damaged. CAST-A-SEAL 12-08 conforms fully with the requirements of ASTM C 923 and ASTM C 1478.

  Product Description

What is unique about the Cast-A-Seal 12-08?
The Cast-A-Seal 12-08’s unique molded design gives users greater deflection than standard cast-in/compression seal connectors along with meeting and or exceeding ASTM C923 and ASTM C1478. See back of literature for additional specification information.

If the Cast-A-Seal 12-08 ever gets damaged, the problem is solved with a unique feature. Simply cut out the 12-08 at the concrete surface and install a Press-Seal Gasket PSX: Direct Drive or other mechanically installed connector on the concrete ledge that is formed by the mandrel. Now you are ready to ship or install in the ground without losing the cost of a structure.

How does the Cast-A-Seal 12-08 work?
If you are a precaster who cores your holes, then cast all your outfall holes and straight through holes using the simple mandrel system that attaches to the jacket.  If you are a precaster who casts your holes with fiberglass, steel or other hole forming system, you can cast all your incoming 8” PVC needs along with the outfall hole. The magnetic mandrel system attaches to the core and eliminates drilling holes. It also provides labor savings over tying hole formers to wire.

How does the Cast-A-Seal 12-08 save money?
Coring holes, then installing a mechanical boot style connector can be an expensive process at times because of coring machine wear and tear and ongoing maintenance expenses. New core bits and resegmenting worn bits, only add to the cost of coring holes. By casting the outfall hole, you are reducing coring costs by extending the life of your machine and bits up to 50% over time. You are also freeing up machine usage during peak times. This can lead to faster customer response times.

Combining the steps of casting a hole with the 12-08 replaces a step in the process. This saves time and money by eliminating the installing of a mechanical connector right after stripping a hole former, coring a hole or right before shipping your product.
