A joint system for water well conduit assemblies includes a plurality of similar modular conduits. Each conduit comprises a cylindrical end portion at a first end and a socket at an opposite, second end configured to receive the cylindrical end portion. Matching configurations of apertures are defined in the cylindrical end portion and the socket. The cylindrical end portion of a first conduit is inserted into the socket of a second conduit. An inwardly deformable pin is inserted through each through hole defined by a pair of aligned apertures. The pin includes slots and a central axial hole with a serrated upper portion and an annular groove. A plug with a serrated head and an annular bump is disposed in the central axial hole to lock the pin in place and thus secure the conduits together. A seal is formed between the cylindrical end portion and the socket. |
