Asc Engineered Solutions 311095418 Galvanized Extension Coupling

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 311095418 is a 1/2-inch galvanized extension coupling designed for joining threaded pipe sections in plumbing and mechanical piping systems. This fitting extends or connects pipe runs where a standard coupling falls short, providing a secure threaded connection in a galvanized steel construction. Weighing 0.18 pounds, it is a compact, lightweight fitting suited for installation by licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on both residential and light commercial systems.

This extension coupling is used in threaded iron or steel pipe assemblies, typically found in water supply, fire protection, and general mechanical piping applications. Its 1/2-inch size makes it a common fit for branch lines, risers, and short extensions where a standard nipple or coupling does not provide enough thread engagement. It is well-suited for indoor mechanical rooms, utility spaces, and similar installations.

Key Features

• Galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance in standard plumbing environments
• 1/2-inch fitting size for compatibility with common threaded pipe systems
• Extension coupling profile provides added thread depth versus a standard coupling
• Lightweight at 0.18 pounds, easy to handle and install in tight spaces
• Threaded connection for reliable, wrench-tightened assembly

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard fitting for 1/2-inch threaded iron and steel pipe systems in residential and commercial plumbing and mechanical piping applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before beginning work. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to all male threads before assembly, and tighten with a pipe wrench to a snug, leak-free fit without over-torquing the fitting.
