Jcm Industries 202-045011 Long Barrel Metal Coupling 4x12 Ips

Product Description

The JCM INDUSTRIES 202-045011 is a long barrel metal coupling designed for joining or repairing IPS (Iron Pipe Size) pipe sections in pressurized piping systems. With a 4-inch diameter and 12-inch barrel length, this coupling provides an extended contact surface for a secure, leak-resistant connection on larger-diameter pipe. It is typically installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on water main repairs, industrial piping, or municipal distribution systems where a standard-length coupling would not provide sufficient joint coverage.

This coupling is suited for use on 4-inch IPS pipe in both underground and aboveground applications. The extended 12-inch barrel length makes it appropriate for situations requiring greater axial pipe coverage, such as cut-in repairs, pipe joining across gaps, or installations subject to movement or vibration. It is commonly specified in commercial and municipal plumbing, water works, and industrial process piping projects.

Key Features

• Long barrel design at 12 inches provides extended pipe coverage compared to standard couplings
• Sized for 4-inch IPS pipe for compatibility with common large-diameter pipe systems
• Metal construction for durability in pressurized service environments
• Suitable for repair and joining applications on water and process piping

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and repair coupling for 4-inch IPS pipe systems in commercial, municipal, and industrial plumbing applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable plumbing codes such as the IPC or local jurisdiction requirements. Depressurize and isolate the affected pipe section before beginning any coupling installation. Pipe ends should be clean, deburred, and free of scale or corrosion to ensure proper seating and sealing. Follow the manufacturer torque sequence for all fasteners to achieve an even, leak-free connection.
