The hydroformed steel body delivers consistent wall strength throughout the fitting. A double-tapered rubber gasket creates two independent seals at each end, reducing the risk of leakage without requiring adhesives or threading. A metal friction ring holds the gasket in place during installation. The coupling is rated up to 125 psi at 210 degrees F, making it suitable for a wide range of pressurized plumbing and water distribution applications. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting as a repair or transition coupling in both new construction and service work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis coupling fits the outside diameter of 1-1\/4 inch Schedule 40 iron pipe and 1-1\/4 inch Schedule 40 PVC pipe. The 4-1\/2 inch body length provides adequate pipe engagement for a secure, leak-resistant joint. Typical applications include water service repairs, underground or above-ground piping systems, and situations where cutting threads or using solvent cement is not practical. The galvanized steel construction suits both indoor mechanical rooms and outdoor or buried installations where corrosion resistance is a factor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHydroformed galvanized steel body for consistent wall strength and corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDouble-tapered rubber gasket creates two seals at each end for reliable leak protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMetal friction ring secures the gasket during assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated to 125 psi at 210 degrees F for pressurized water systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLong-pattern body at 4-1\/2 inches provides extended pipe engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFits Schedule 40 iron pipe and Schedule 40 PVC outside diameters — no threading or solvent required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSized to fit the outside diameter of 1-1\/4 inch Schedule 40 iron pipe and 1-1\/4 inch Schedule 40 PVC pipe.

Shut off and depressurize the water supply before cutting into any existing line. Pipe ends should be cut square and deburred to ensure full, even contact with the rubber gasket. Do not over-torque the coupling nuts, as this can distort the gasket and compromise the seal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 125 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 210 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Galvanized steel (hydroformed)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePattern\u003c\/strong\u003e: Long pattern\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Pipe Schedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: Schedule 40 iron pipe, Schedule 40 PVC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.867 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 00032888600065\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: BK\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 160-006\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"B\u0026K","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51342776664370,"sku":"160-006","price":30.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310549727.jpg?v=1782006252","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/bk-160-006-compression-galvanized-coupling-1-1-4-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
