LUBRICATE BELL Lubricate bell jointing surface liberally. Use a brush, cloth, sponge or gloves to cover entire surface. Only approved lubricant should be used. A bell not lubricated or improperly lubricated may cause gasket to roll and possibly damage the bell. LUBRICATE SPIGOT Lubricate the spigot or tongue end of pipe, especially the gasket recess. Gasket may twist out of recess if lubricant in recess is lacking or insufficient. 40 <strong>American</strong> Concrete Pipe Association • www.concrete-pipe.org
LUBRICATE GASKET Lubricate the gasket thoroughly before it is placed on the spigot or tongue. Excess force will be required to push the pipe to the home position if gasket is not well lubricated. INSTALL GASKET Fit the gasket carefully. Equalize the rubber gasket stretch by running a smooth, round object, inserted between gasket and spigot, around the entire circumference several times. Unequal stretch could cause bunching of gasket and may cause leaks in the joint or crack the bell. <strong>American</strong> Concrete Pipe Association • www.concrete-pipe.org 41
