- The Series 1400 was originally designed to provide joint restraint for ductile iron pipelines installed in areas subject to earthquakes. Its unique "controlled expansion and flexibility" feature has allowed it to withstand several major earthquakes, one as large as magnitude 7.7 in 1983 and another of magnitude 7.8 in 1993.Uni-Flange® has licensed this technology and has adapted the design to AWWA standards and dimensions.
