For use in
municipal water systems,
firelines and other
critical services.
Strength
Class 100, 150 and 200 Blue Brute water
pipes have long-term hydrostatic
strength that meet the commonly
accepted high safety requirements of
municipal water systems. Blue Brute
conforms to cast iron O.D.'s and is
available in 4", 6", 8", 10" and 12" sizes
in Class 100, 150, and 200.
Meets AWWA C900
Underwriters Laboratories and NSF 61
Listed, Factory Mutual Approved.
J-M Manufacturing's Blue Brute
Class 150 and 200 PVC water pipes
are listed for critical use in firelines
and water mains and are F/M approved.
Blue Brute Class 100 is intended for
water mains.
Light weight
A 20 foot length of Class 150, 8" Blue
Brute water pipe weighs approximately
181 pounds. That makes it easy to load,
easy to transport and easy to handle.
Installers prefer it because it goes into the
ground quickly -- thus saving on
installation costs.
Long laying lengths
A standard laying length of Blue Brute
PVC water pipe is 20 feet. That means
you can cover a lot of ground during
installation. At the same time, you
eliminate the cost of unnecessary joints.
Corrosion resistance
Blue Brute is unaffected by electrolytic or
galvanic corrosion, or any known soil or
water condition. You don't have to worry
about tuberculation, or the need for costly
lining, wrapping, coating or cathodic
protection.
Quality control
Without exception, each length of pipe is
hydrostatically tested and subject to
inspection by our quality control
inspectors throughout every step of the
manufacturing process.
Flow capacity
This PVC water pipe has a smooth
interior that stays smooth over long years
of service with no loss in carrying
capacity. Its coefficient of flow is C = 150
(H&W) -- the best available in common
use in water systems. This capacity often
allows savings in pumping costs as well
as savings on the size of pipe required.
Field cutting
You can cut Blue Brute with a powersaw
or an ordinary handsaw. It eliminates the
need to invest in costly cutting equipment.
Service life
Because it is nonmetallic, the pipe does
not lose strength due to either potable
water corrosion or external galvanic or
soil corrosion. And its design includes a
surge allowance for a 2 ft./sec, stoppage
of flow.
Ring-Tite joints with
factory installed rings
Blue Brute's Ring-Tite joint can be
assembled quickly. Seated in a deep
groove, the flexible elastomeric ring
provides a tight seal that protects the
line from shock, vibration, earth move-
ment and compensates for expansion
and contraction of pipe lengths. And
there's no field mixing or application
of cement, it's a simple push-together
joint that remains tight under normal
operating conditions.

meet the requirements of DR 25, Class
150 pipe shall meet the requirements of
DR 18 and Class 200 the requirements
of DR 14.
Pipe
All pipe shall be suitable for use as
pressure conduit. Provisions must be
made for expansion and contraction at
each joint with an elastomeric ring.
The bell shall consist of an integral wall
section with a factory installed, solid
cross section elastomeric ring which
meets the requirements of ASTM F-477.
The bell section shall be designed to
be at least as hydrostatically strong as
the pipe wall and meet the requirements
of AWWA C900. Sizes and dimensions
shall be as shown in this specification.
Joint design meets qualification
requirements of ASTM F3139.
Hydro Testing
Each pipe shall be tested to four times
the pressure class of the pipe for a
minimum of 5 seconds. The integral
bell shall be tested with the pipe.
Standard Laying Lengths
Standard laying lengths shall be
20 feet (----_ 1 ") for all sizes.
accordance with ASTM D 1599 shall
withstand, withoutfailure, pressures
listed below when applied in 60-70
seconds.
