Harco 69-311502D Hdpe Reducer Coupling 2x1.25 in Socket Fusion

Product Description

The HARCO 69-311502D is a black HDPE reducer coupling designed for socket fusion joining in water service piping systems. It transitions from a 2-inch pipe to a 1.25-inch pipe and is manufactured from high-density polyethylene, a material well suited to buried and above-ground potable water distribution. Plumbers and water system contractors use this fitting where a reduction in line size is required within a socket fusion piping run. HDPE socket fusion fittings are joined using a heated tool to simultaneously melt the pipe end and the fitting socket before pressing them together to form a continuous, leak-free joint.

This reducer coupling is used in residential and commercial water service applications where HDPE piping is specified. Typical installations include water main lateral runs, well water supply lines, and irrigation distribution systems. Socket fusion is the standard joining method for this fitting class and is performed in the field using a socket fusion tool sized for both the 2-inch and 1.25-inch connections. The black colorway is standard for HDPE water service fittings and provides UV resistance for above-ground or exposed installations.

Key Features

• Reduces from 2-inch socket to 1.25-inch socket in a single fitting
• Socket fusion ends for a permanent, heat-welded joint
• High-density polyethylene construction resists corrosion, scale, and chemical attack
• Black HDPE material provides UV resistance for exposed installations
• Rated for water service piping applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and new-installation fitting for socket fusion HDPE water service piping systems using 2-inch and 1.25-inch outside-diameter pipe.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or water system contractors familiar with HDPE socket fusion procedures. Shut off and depressurize the water supply line before cutting into any existing piping. A socket fusion tool with the correctly sized facing and heating inserts for both pipe diameters is required to achieve a proper melt before joining. Follow the pipe manufacturer's recommended melt time and cooling time to ensure full joint strength before returning the system to pressure.
