Fernco Inc P1060-33 Flexible Socket Coupling 3 Inches

Product Description

The FERNCO INC P1060-33 is a flexible socket coupling designed to join two pipe ends in a socket-to-socket configuration. It accepts 3-inch pipe on both ends and provides a secure, leak-resistant connection without the rigidity of traditional rigid couplings. The flexible construction accommodates minor pipe misalignment and movement, making it a practical choice for repair and replacement work in drain, waste, and vent systems. Licensed plumbers and experienced pipefitters install this coupling in both new construction and retrofit applications.

This coupling is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing systems where a reliable socket-to-socket connection is needed on 3-inch pipe runs. It is commonly used in drain, waste, and vent lines where flexibility is beneficial, such as connecting sections of PVC, ABS, or cast iron pipe during repairs or modifications. The socket-to-socket design simplifies alignment during installation.
