Fernco Inc P1056-150 Flexible Coupling 1.5 Inches

Product Description

The FERNCO INC P1056-150 is a 1.5-inch flexible pipe coupling designed to join two pipe ends in drain, waste, and vent (DWV) plumbing systems. The coupling uses a flexible elastomeric sleeve secured by two stainless steel clamps to create a leak-resistant, mechanically sound connection without solvent cement or specialty tools. It accommodates minor pipe misalignment and is well suited for repair, replacement, or new rough-in work where rigid fittings are impractical. Licensed plumbers and experienced pipefitters are the typical installers for this fitting.

This coupling is used in residential and light commercial plumbing applications where a fast, reliable connection is needed between pipe segments of the same nominal diameter. It is rated for 1.5-inch pipe-to-pipe connections and accepts cast iron or plastic pipe on either end, making it especially useful in retrofit work where two different pipe materials meet at a joint.

Key Features

• Connects cast iron to cast iron, plastic to plastic, or cast iron to plastic at 1.5-inch nominal pipe size
• Two stainless steel clamps included for secure, corrosion-resistant clamping
• Flexible elastomeric sleeve absorbs minor pipe misalignment and vibration
• No solvent cement, flame, or threading required for installation
• Suitable for DWV drain, waste, and vent piping systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and repair coupling for 1.5-inch nominal cast iron or plastic DWV pipe systems. Connects cast iron or plastic to cast iron or plastic pipe ends at the same nominal diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter. Shut off flow and drain the line before beginning work. Slide the clamps and sleeve onto the pipe ends, ensure full sleeve engagement over both pipe stubs, then torque the clamps evenly using a nut driver or screwdriver until snug and secure. Follow all applicable local plumbing codes and IPC requirements for DWV piping connections.
