Brent, Did not look closely at the unit that was on our pier a short
time ago but from inspection of the images, it looks like the mating unit is
one or the other but not both. The two-part clamping ring interfaces with
beveled surfaces so that when the tighter it is drawn together, the more
pressure is put on the flat mating surfaces. R/Jay Respectfully, Jay K. Jeffries Andros Is., Bahamas As scarce as the truth is, the supply has always been in excess of
the demand. -Josh Billings From:

So does
that mean they can be locked by both a rotating ring type, as well as a
two-part coupling flange, as it appears this DART unit can? Are
all the outer mating parts of the two-part coupling flange beveled so they
increase the pressure on the seal further as the two clam shells are brought
closer together? |
