Smith-blair BAKCOUP112 Repair Coupling 1-1/2 Inches

Product Description

The SMITH-BLAIR BAKCOUP112 is a repair coupling designed for restoring integrity to damaged or leaking pipe sections. This type of fitting is used to bridge a cut or broken section of pipe, providing a secure, sealed connection without requiring a full pipe replacement. Typically installed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters, the coupling is sized for 1-1/2 inch pipe and is suited for water distribution and general piping repair applications. It is a direct, field-serviceable solution intended to minimize downtime during pipe repair work.

This repair coupling is appropriate for residential and light commercial plumbing systems where a 1-1/2 inch line requires spot repair. It is commonly used in water supply, irrigation, and general utility piping scenarios where access to the damaged pipe section is available. Installation does not require full pipe replacement, making it a practical choice for in-line repairs in tight spaces or existing systems.

Installation Notes
