Fernco Drain Couplings, sometimes referred to as couplers, are simple, easy to use drainage pipe connectors. Drain Couplings are designed to connect two pipes with the same or similar (within 10mm) outside diameter. The flexible nature of these fittings allows the user to connect and repair, what would be in normal circumstances, incompatible pipe systems. The range of flexible diameter plumbing couplings are easy installers; simply slide the coupling over the ends of the pipes to be connected and tighten the clamps using a nut driver or flat head screwdriver. This method also allows users to disconnect and reconnect as many times as required.

Features & Benefits:

• Made from EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) and two high performance stainless steel clamp bands.
• Quick and easy to install.
• Provides a reliable flexible seal which is watertight and airtight.
• Universal, can be used on any pipe material.
• Ideal for connecting incompatible pipe systems and adjust to various diameters.
• Easy transition between metric and inch measurements.
• Reduces vibrations in pipes.
• Can be installed even in cold or frosty conditions.
• Allows quick and easy emergency repairs.
• Works well with connections that may not seal perfectly.
• Resists UV rays, root growth, sewer gases, bacteria, and various chemicals.
• Can be used to connect plain ended pipes.
• Repair of existing pipe systems by replacing short sections of pipe.
• An inexpensive option for unadopted (private) drainage pipes.

Applications:

• For unadopted drainage applications like housing sites, private roads, industrial sites, agriculture land and more.
• Designed for drainage applications because of their durability and resistance to environmental factors like UV, ozone, and temperature variations.
• Perfect in industrial applications where access may be restricted after completion of first fix.
• Compatible with any pipe system: plastic, clay, concrete, etc.
• Particularly useful for materials that cannot, or cannot easily, be glued, such as steel, PP, PE, concrete and polyester.
