example at a field location in its most preferred form the manufacturing method and device of the invention provide an improved restraint system for plastic pipe joints utilizing the u201c gasket formed u201d bell groove which does not require assembly in the field and which thus simplifies installation of pipe sections at the pipe joints used to form a fluid conveying pipeline thereby reducing the chance of human error or of damage or contamination of the gasket sealing surfaces the integral restraint system of the invention eliminates the need for an external clamping device of the type presently used in the industry to achieve the restraining function which device is totally separated from the sealing function the system of the invention is also simple in design dependable in operation and is less costly to manufacture than the prior art restraining systems which utilize external glands and mechanical restraint components because the ring components of the restraint system of the invention are pre installed the possibility of mistakes during field assembly is virtually eliminated also the gripper ring component of the invention applies more pressure to the exterior surface of the mating male spigot pipe end as internal pressure builds within the fluid coupling this action helps to ensure the integrity of the joint in addition the gripper ring component aids in sealing the joint by keeping a constant gripping pressure on the male pipe end at even the lowest operating pressures of the pipeline two additional aspects of the gripper ring component of the restraint system of the invention are.
