摘要： An assembly includes a tubular body having an axis, an axial end, a bore that is axial an aperture and a retainer groove formed in the bore and contiguous with the aperture. The assembly also includes a retainer mounted in the retainer groove. The retainer has a debris shield located external to the tubular body. The retainer includes a nominal configuration wherein the debris shield is configured to close off access to the aperture and the retainer groove to prevent debris from accumulating therein. In addition, the retainer includes an expanded configuration wherein the debris shield is not configured to completely close off access to the aperture and the retainer groove.

摘要： A seal has a seal body with an axis and axial-facing surfaces. The seal body is configured to be mounted to a tubular member, and seal between the tubular member and a second tubular member. A visual indicium can be located on only one of the axial-facing surfaces. Prior to assembly of the tubular member and the second tubular member, the visual indicium is configured to be visible to a user after being correctly mounted to the tubular member without the user physically contacting the seal body.

摘要： Systems, methods and components for a tool-less, pre-assembled restrained joint for a pipe are disclosed. For example, a pipe can include a tubular member having an axis, a spigot on one axial end, a bell on an opposite axial end, an outer retainer groove in an outer surface of the spigot, and an inner retainer groove in an inner surface of the bell. A retainer comprising a split ring can be configured to be mounted in the inner retainer groove. The retainer can include a single annular finger cantilevered therefrom and circumscribing an entirety of the split ring in spring bias. The finger can be configured to engage the outer retainer groove of a second pipe in a pipe assembly.

摘要： A pipe restrained joint seal and lock can include a ring that is continuous and annular. The ring can have an axis, a proximal end and a distal end axially spaced apart from the proximal end. A spline can extend from the ring to engage a spline groove of a tubular component. The spline can include one or more of the following features: a seal mounted to the distal end of the ring; the seal mounted to the ring axially distal of the spline; the seal mounted to the ring radially outward of the spline relative to the axis; and the seal mounted to the ring, the seal having a seal groove extending in a distal direction, and a portion of the ring is located in the seal groove.

摘要： A system for integrated water management of a basement is disclosed. The basement has a footer, a wall extending upward from the footer, and a sill plate on top of the wall. The system may include a sill plate barrier with a base located between the sill plate and the wall. The system may include a vertical barrier coupled to the sill plate barrier and extending downward along an exterior of the wall toward the footer. In addition, the system may have a footer barrier coupled to the vertical barrier and extending over an exterior of the footer. The system may include a drain member adjacent the exterior of the footer and coupled to the footer barrier. In one version, the sill plate barrier, vertical barrier, footer barrier and drain member collectively form the integrated water management system for the exterior of the basement to prevent water intrusion.

摘要： A pipe system has a pipe with an axis and a retainer groove formed in an exterior of the pipe near an axial end of the pipe. The pipe system also has a tubular body with an interior and one end sized to receive the axial end of the pipe therein to form a pipe assembly. The pipe system also has a retainer configured to be received in the retainer groove and to be both axially movable and radially movable relative to the retainer groove during formation of the pipe assembly and to retain the pipe and the tubular body in the pipe assembly.
