Carrhill SR112114 Mdpe Gas Coupling 1.5x1.25 in

Product Description

The CARRHILL SR112114 is a socket fusion coupling designed for joining medium-density polyethylene (MDPE) gas distribution piping. This yellow-coded fitting accepts a 1.5-inch socket on one end and a 1.25-inch socket on the other, making it a reducing coupling suited for transitioning between two pipe sizes in underground or direct-bury natural gas or propane distribution systems. Yellow coloring follows industry convention for gas-service fittings, providing a quick visual identification in the field. Installation requires socket fusion tooling and is performed by qualified gas piping professionals in accordance with applicable codes.

This coupling is used in residential and commercial gas distribution piping systems where MDPE pipe is the specified material. Typical applications include service line runs, meter set connections, and distribution mains where a reducing transition between 1.5-inch and 1.25-inch MDPE pipe is required. The socket fusion joint style creates a homogeneous bond between the fitting and pipe, eliminating mechanical connections in buried service.

Key Features

• Reducing socket fusion configuration: 1.5 inches x 1.25 inches
• MDPE construction rated for gas service distribution piping
• Yellow color coding identifies fitting as gas-service rated
• Socket fusion end style creates a continuous, leak-resistant joint
• Order increment of 1 unit for flexible purchasing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style socket fusion replacement coupling for 1.5-inch by 1.25-inch MDPE gas distribution piping systems.

Installation Notes

Socket fusion MDPE gas fittings are installed by licensed gas piping contractors or qualified utility personnel in accordance with IFGC and applicable local codes. All gas flow must be shut off and the line depressurized before cutting into an existing system. Proper socket fusion tooling, including a fusion unit with correctly sized facing and heating tools, is required to achieve a code-compliant joint. Do not use solvent cement or mechanical compression methods with socket fusion fittings.
