Ipex 255402 Plastic Coupling

Product Description

The IPEX 255402 is a plastic coupling designed for use in plumbing systems. Couplings of this type connect two pipe sections of the same diameter, maintaining a continuous, leak-resistant run. This fitting is sold individually and is installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on residential or light commercial plumbing lines. At 1.004 pounds, it is a lightweight fitting suited for overhead, in-wall, or under-slab routing where minimizing load is a consideration.

This coupling is intended for plumbing applications where a plastic fitting is specified. It is sold as a single unit, making it appropriate for targeted repairs, service calls, or new installations where only one fitting is required. Plastic couplings are commonly used in drain, waste, and vent (DWV) systems as well as certain supply-side configurations depending on the material and pressure rating of the fitting.

Key Features

• Plastic construction for lightweight installation and corrosion resistance
• Sold individually (each) with a minimum order quantity of one
• Coupling design joins two pipe sections in a continuous run
• Suitable for plumbing system applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-install fitting for plastic plumbing piping systems. Verify pipe diameter and material compatibility before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before removing any existing fitting or cutting into an active line. Solvent cement, primer, or mechanical joining methods should be selected based on the pipe material and local code requirements. Do not pressure-test the system until solvent welds have fully cured per the adhesive manufacturer's instructions.
