Abstract: A boltless mechanical pipe joint uses an singly cast segment of joint pipe, bell housing with internal gasket recess and flange to secure pipe segments, including water main segments. The bell housing is elongated to accommodate the internal gasket recess, prefabricated and precisely placed gasket and flange. The flange receives a plurality of restraint components which secure the boltless pipe joint to a second pipe segment. The elongated bell housing also provides additional support.
