Homewerks 511-43-12-12B Pvc Compression Repair Coupling 1/2 in

Product Description

The HOMEWERKS WORLDWIDE LLC 511-43-12-12B is a 1/2-inch PVC compression repair coupling designed for cold water plumbing systems. It connects or repairs sections of galvanized or plastic pipe without solvent welding or threading, using compression nuts and rubber gaskets to create a watertight seal. Rated at 150 psi at 73 degrees F, it is suited for residential and light commercial cold water supply lines. Licensed plumbers and experienced DIYers install this fitting where a quick, tool-minimal repair is needed on existing pipe runs.

This coupling is intended for cold water applications on galvanized steel or plastic pipe. Its compression design makes it a practical choice for repair scenarios where cutting in a slip fitting is not feasible or where a removable, serviceable connection is preferred. It is commonly used in residential water supply systems, basement plumbing repairs, and utility connections where rigid solvent or threaded joints are impractical.

• Rated at 150 psi at 73 degrees F for reliable cold water service

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or qualified tradesperson. Shut off the water supply and relieve line pressure before beginning work. Hand-tighten the compression nuts first, then snug with an adjustable wrench — do not overtighten, as excessive torque can deform the rubber gasket and cause leaks. This fitting is rated for cold water service only and should not be used in hot water or steam applications.
