Cash-acme UIP3020 Pvc Slip Coupling 1 Inch Ips

Product Description

The CASH-ACME UIP3020 is a 1-inch IPS PVC slip coupling designed for joining or repairing PVC pipe sections in residential and light commercial plumbing systems. Manufactured as a lead-free fitting, it meets current potable water compliance standards, making it appropriate for both water supply and drain applications where PVC slip connections are specified. Plumbers and pipefitters install this coupling using standard solvent-cement methods. At 0.47 pounds, it is lightweight and easy to handle in tight spaces. The slip design allows the fitting to slide fully onto the pipe for alignment before bonding, which is useful in repair scenarios where pipe movement is limited.

This coupling is suited for residential and light commercial installations involving schedule 40 or schedule 80 PVC pipe at 1-inch IPS sizing. Typical applications include water distribution repairs, irrigation system connections, and general-purpose PVC piping assemblies. It is commonly specified when replacing damaged pipe sections in-line or when extending existing PVC runs.
