Sioux Chief pecp2-01c 1 in Coupler Ips Sdr 11

Product Description

The SIOUX CHIEF pecp2-01c is a 1-inch IPS SDR 11 coupler designed for joining polyethylene pipe sections in underground and direct-bury plumbing applications. This fitting maintains the pipe's pressure rating and structural integrity at the joint, making it a standard choice for water service and gas distribution lines where SDR 11 PE pipe is specified. Licensed plumbers and pipe fusion technicians install this coupler as part of code-compliant underground service runs.

This coupler is suited for residential and light commercial water service installations where IPS-dimensioned SDR 11 polyethylene pipe is used. SDR 11 pipe is commonly specified for potable water mains, natural gas service lines, and similar buried pressure applications. The IPS sizing system ensures compatibility with standard iron pipe size tooling and fittings.

Key Features

• 1-inch IPS sizing for use with standard iron pipe size SDR 11 polyethylene pipe
• SDR 11 wall ratio supports higher operating pressure ratings suitable for water and gas service
• Designed for butt fusion or socket fusion joining, depending on fitting configuration
• Maintains full-flow bore through the joint for minimal pressure loss
• Suitable for direct-bury and underground installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement fitting for use with 1-inch IPS SDR 11 polyethylene pipe in residential and commercial buried piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation of polyethylene pipe couplers should be performed by a qualified plumber or certified pipe fusion technician following applicable IPC and local code requirements. Shut off and depressurize the line before cutting or joining pipe sections. Fusion joints require proper temperature control and dwell time per the pipe manufacturer and tool specifications — do not substitute mechanical assembly for fusion on systems requiring a fused joint. Inspect the completed bead profile before backfilling to confirm joint integrity.
