Victaulic products are typically installed in large buildings (condominiums, hospitals, schools, and across a wide range of industries) and are clearly identifiable by their “Victaulic” branding visible on the products in pump and mechanical rooms

Lieff Cabraser is investigating defective synthetic rubber Victaulic piping products (plumbing gaskets, valves, and joinings). These piping products—including Victaulic’s 606, 607 and 107H style couplings—are the subject of reports of premature degradation allegedly due to the composition of the synthetic rubber, which can fail when exposed to chemicals and varying temperatures from the water supply that runs through the pipes. The resulting failures can lead to leaks, property damage, and costly repairs, and contamination of drinking water with black particulate matter, among other issues.

If your building includes these Victaulic plumbing products, whether or not the products have resulted in a plumbing failure to date, we urge you to contact an experienced product defect lawyer at Lieff Cabraser today about your legal rights.
