MODEL MD GROOVE RULE
The Lede grooved diameter rule is a simple and easy to
use steel tape rule used for taking circumferenƟal
measurements. The Model MD rules are designed to
accurately measure the standard groove dimensions of pipe
and are available for measuring, sizes 25mm through
1050mm (1’’- 42’’). The double sided direct reading diameter
rule features two scales and a quick check reference which
indicates the acceptable groove range for all pipe sizes.

SELF LUBRICANT
All Lede EPDM gaskets are self-lubricant, it allows the
gaskets to be installed on the pipe without sparying
lubricant. for other gaskets except EPDM, like silicon gasket,
lubricant is recommended and to help prevent the gasket
from being pinched. The lubricant is applied in a thin coat
to the gasket exterior, the gasket lips and/or the housing
interiors.
