Wal-rich 2881004 Ips Con-stab Coupling SDR-11 1 Inch

Product Description

The WAL-RICH 2881004 is a 1-inch IPS Con-Stab coupling rated for SDR-11 pipe, designed for fast, reliable joining of polyethylene gas distribution pipe without heat fusion or special tools. The Con-Stab insert-style connection grips the pipe mechanically, creating a secure joint suited for buried gas service lines. This coupling is installed by licensed plumbers and gas fitters working on residential and light commercial natural gas or propane distribution systems.

This coupling is used in underground gas piping applications where SDR-11 polyethylene pipe is the specified material. It is commonly installed at service connections, repairs, and extensions of existing PE gas mains. The Con-Stab design is widely accepted in jurisdictions that permit mechanical insert fittings for gas distribution, making it a practical choice for fast-turn repair work or new service installation.

Key Features

• 1-inch IPS pipe size for standard SDR-11 polyethylene gas pipe
• Con-Stab mechanical insert connection — no heat fusion equipment required
• Designed for buried natural gas and propane distribution service
• Compact coupling form factor for in-line pipe joining and repair

Compatibility

Designed for use with 1-inch IPS SDR-11 polyethylene pipe in underground gas distribution applications. Consult local code authority and the fitting manufacturer for jurisdiction-specific approval before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter in accordance with IFGC requirements and applicable local codes. Shut off gas supply and verify line is depressurized before making any connections. Pipe ends must be cut cleanly and squarely and deburred before inserting into the Con-Stab fitting. Follow the manufacturer's insertion depth and pull-back verification procedure to confirm a fully engaged joint before backfilling.
