Forest, It may seem expensive, but a little bit goes a long way. If you are doing a freezer or refrigerated warehouse, it is well worth it. We have used it with no issues and we stuck with the Tyco stuff.
Ken Holsopple Design Manager Rowe Sprinkler Systems, Inc. Forest wote: This question pertains to the Tyco Grooved Coupling Gaskets listed for use with dry systems. The literature requires the use of a silicon Sealant, Dow Corning #6. To buy a 5 oz tube is $55. This seems extremely high to me. For those contractors that use these couplings, do you buy the lubricant? If so, from Tyco or a Dow Corning alternative?
