This fitting creates a permanent, pressure-rated joint by heating mating surfaces to a precise melt temperature and pressing them together without additional adhesives or mechanical fasteners. It is used in water service, geothermal, and industrial fluid transport applications where a leak-free thermoplastic connection is required. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters typically handle installation, particularly on systems subject to pressure testing or buried service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe PESFCOUP3 is suited for IPS-sized polyethylene pipe in residential, commercial, and light industrial settings. Socket fusion couplings of this type are commonly specified on potable water service laterals, geothermal ground loop headers, and reclaimed water distribution lines. The 3-inch IPS sizing covers a common mid-range diameter used in both new construction and pipe repair or extension work where a straight inline coupling is needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSocket fusion design creates a monolithic, leak-resistant thermoplastic joint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIPS sizing ensures compatibility with standard iron pipe size polyethylene pipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo adhesives, clamps, or mechanical fasteners required for the fusion joint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for buried and above-ground polyethylene piping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-inch bore accommodates a widely used service and distribution pipe size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style socket fusion fitting for use with 3-inch IPS-dimension polyethylene pipe in pressure-rated thermoplastic piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation requires a socket fusion tool set calibrated to the correct melt temperature for the pipe material and wall thickness. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before cutting or joining pipe. Follow ASTM F2389 or the pipe manufacturer fusion procedures for heat soak and cooling times. This work is typically performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter familiar with thermoplastic fusion methods.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: IPS Socket Fusion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: NOMACO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: PESFCOUP3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NOMACO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51523407151410,"sku":"SFCOUP3","price":29.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/05cbd6d42091e261898ac858287d0e0d.jpg?v=1785442010","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/nomaco-pesfcoup3-ips-socket-fusion-coupling-3-inches","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
