{"product_id":"grooved-viclets","title":"Grooved Viclets","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Grooved Viclet is a versatile mechanical branch outlet designed to create a threaded connection directly from an existing pipe without the need to install a full tee. Ideal for fire protection, HVAC, and mechanical services, it provides a fast and efficient solution for adding smaller branch lines to grooved piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cbr\u003eManufactured from durable ductile iron, the viclet is secured to the pipe using a bolted housing and gasket arrangement, forming a reliable, pressure-responsive seal. A hole is cut into the pipe to create the outlet, allowing installation without removing or replacing sections of pipe—making it particularly well suited for retrofits, extensions, and on-site modifications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cbr\u003eSupplied with a 15mm BSP threaded outlet, this fitting is designed for smaller branch connections such as drains, test points, and gauge lines, while maintaining full compatibility with standard grooved pipe systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e \u003cbr\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Mechanical tee (viclet) design – allows branch connections without cutting out pipe sections \u003cbr\u003e• 15mm BSP threaded outlet for small-bore connections \u003cbr\u003e• Suitable for pipe sizes 100–200mm \u003cbr\u003e• Ductile iron construction for strength and long service life \u003cbr\u003e• Clamp-on installation using bolted housing and gasket \u003cbr\u003e• Pressure-responsive sealing system for reliable leak resistance \u003cbr\u003e• No hot works required, improving safety and installation speed \u003cbr\u003e• Available with BSP threaded outlets as standard \u003cbr\u003e• Compatible with standard grooved piping systems\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e \u003cbr\u003eApplications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Fire sprinkler systems (drains, inspector’s test lines, gauge connections) \u003cbr\u003e• HVAC and chilled water systems \u003cbr\u003e• System extensions and retrofit installations \u003cbr\u003e• Industrial and commercial pipework\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cbr\u003eDesigned for flexibility, speed, and reliability, the grooved viclet provides an efficient method of adding threaded branch connections while minimising disruption to existing pipework.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GRUVLOK","offers":[{"title":"100mm - 200mm \/ 923 \/ 15mm BSP Outlet","offer_id":54024490778957,"sku":"GRVVICLET923","price":150.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9925\/1021\/files\/grooved-viclets_GRVVICLET923.png?v=1780480250","url":"https:\/\/fire-mechfixings.co.uk\/products\/grooved-viclets","provider":"Fire Mech Fixings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
