A compression coupling is a simple, reliable fitting for joining or repairing galvanized water pipes in residential plumbing systems. This 2-inch iron pipe size (IPS) coupling allows you to connect two pieces of galvanized pipe end-to-end, making it ideal for repairs, replacements, or new installations where galvanized steel pipe is already in use.
The B & K coupling features a hydroformed steel body with a rubber compression gasket and metal friction ring that create a watertight seal when tightened. It is rated up to 125 psi at 210°F, meeting the pressure demands of typical residential potable water applications.
Features and Benefits
- Hydroformed Steel Construction: The formed steel body provides strength and durability for long-term use in residential water supply lines.
- Compression Seal Design: The rubber gasket and metal friction ring create a watertight seal when the coupling is tightened onto the pipe ends.
- Galvanized Finish: The galvanized coating helps protect the coupling in residential water applications.
- Rated for Residential Water Service: Designed for potable water applications at up to 125 psi at 210°F.
- Iron Pipe Size (IPS): The 2-inch IPS design works with standard galvanized piping for seamless repairs and connections.
