Fernco 1056-86 8 Flexible Pvc Compression Coupling 8x6 in

Product Description

The FERNCO 1056-86 8 is a flexible PVC compression coupling designed to join dissimilar pipe materials in sewer, drainage, vent, and waste systems. The coupling body is made from resilient PVC that resists soil conditions, chemicals, ultraviolet exposure, and fungus growth. Stainless steel clamps are included and provide rustproof, corrosion-resistant clamping force to create a secure, leak-resistant connection. Licensed plumbers and drain technicians install this coupling where a watertight transition between different pipe types is required without the need for solvent cementing or threading.

This coupling is suited for residential and commercial plumbing applications where pipes of different materials meet. It is commonly used in new construction tie-ins, repair work, and retrofit installations involving sewer, drain, waste, and vent lines. The flexible sleeve accommodates minor pipe misalignment and offset, making it practical for field repairs where pipe ends may not be perfectly aligned.
