Nibco Inc 9020500PCU 1 Inch Pxp Press Repair Coupling

Product Description

The NIBCO INC 9020500PCU is a 1-inch press-by-press repair coupling designed to join or restore two lengths of copper tube without soldering. This fitting uses a press connection method, eliminating open flame from the joint-making process. The lead-free construction meets current potable water standards. Each package contains 5 fittings, making it practical for jobs that require multiple repairs or staged installations. Plumbers and pipefitters working on residential and light commercial water distribution systems are the primary installers of this fitting.

This coupling is suited for 1-inch copper tubing repairs in water supply lines where a reliable, flame-free connection is required. The press-by-press end configuration allows the fitting to slip over two tube ends and be pressed with a compatible pressing tool. It is commonly used in occupied buildings, tight spaces, or anywhere torch work is restricted or impractical. The lead-free rating makes it appropriate for potable water applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers following applicable plumbing codes such as the IPC or local equivalents. Shut off and depressurize the water supply line and ensure the tube ends are clean, deburred, and dry before pressing. Use only a pressing tool and jaw size rated and compatible with this fitting size and style.
