Orangeburg's engineers were governed by this vilaJ * truth when they originated and perfected the Taper- weld Joint. Orangeburg's Taperwsld Joint is one of the xrocfc important improvements in rawer pipe de- slopmsnl In tho past 100 years. The Taperweld ....yoint requires no cement, no caulking, no com pounds nor rubber rings. An accurately machined 2" taper on pipe end fits into a mating taper in the sleeve coupling. A few light blows drive the coupling onto the pipe, producing a self-sealing joint that remains tight against leakage, infiltration and that major causa cf sewer line problems, root entry. Both pipe and tidings are joined in this easy, simple man ner. When it is necessary to cut the pipe to a shorter than standard length, a factory-quality taper may be made c*i the pipe right on the job with a light, inexpensive Orangeburg Tapering Tool. Since its introduction meny "case histories" have proved the leak-preventing effectiveness cf Orangeburg Taperweld Joint's design.

The pipe comes in 8' lengths and is constructed with two rows ol %" perforations on 3" centers. 100 degrees apart. The perforations are scientifically de signed to provide uniJona distxibutkn and seepage dong the entire line. The lengths ol pipe are joined with a unique snap coupling which requires no special tools. The slot at the bottom of the snap coupling assures complete seepage. Orangeburg Fittings are used with Orangeburg Perforated Pipe by tapering the pipe ends with an Orangeburg xapering Tool. The 50-year record cf Orangeburg Perforated Pipe in septic tank disposal fields shows that it does not corrode, disintegrate or crack and maintains that all-importadjoint alignment. Orangeburg Perforated Pipe also is made xi 6" sire lor subsurface drainage such as foundation drains, farm and land drainage and highway subdrainage. The 6" sire has Taperweld Joints and 4 longitudinal rows oi 3/g" perforations on 3" centers on one semi circumference. The two bottom rows are 90' apart and the two top rows 160' apart.
