Smith - Blair 4.61018E+13 Metal Bolted Coupling

Product Description

The SMITH - BLAIR 4.61018E+13 is a metal bolted coupling designed for joining or repairing pipe sections in plumbing, waterworks, and industrial piping systems. It accommodates outside diameters ranging from 1.81 to 2.28 inches, making it suitable for nominal 1.5-inch pipe. The bolted design provides a secure, leak-resistant connection without requiring welding or special tooling. Plumbers, pipefitters, and waterworks technicians install this type of coupling for both new construction and field repair applications where a reliable mechanical joint is required.

This coupling is suited for use on water mains, service lines, and general piping systems where pipe outside diameters fall within the 1.81 to 2.28 inch range. It is commonly used in residential and light commercial plumbing repair scenarios, as well as municipal waterworks and industrial pipe maintenance. The metal construction provides durability in buried, exposed, and wet environments typical of pipe repair and joining applications.

Key Features

• Fits pipe outside diameters from 1.81 to 2.28 inches
• Metal construction for durability in plumbing and waterworks applications
• Bolted design allows secure field installation without welding

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and field-repair coupling for metal piping systems with outside diameters between 1.81 and 2.28 inches, typical of nominal 1.5-inch pipe.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters. Shut off water supply and depressurize the line before beginning work. Clean and deburr pipe ends to ensure proper seating of the coupling gasket and uniform bolt torque.
