Water Pipe Couplings

A water pipe coupling is a fitting used to connect two sections of water pipes together. These couplings are essential components in plumbing systems, allowing for the extension, repair, or alteration of piping networks. They are designed to ensure a secure and leak-proof connection between the pipes.

Water Pipe Couplings Working Principle

Water Pipe Couplings Working Principle

The location plug is designed for above ground pipeline. When we install a coupling without the location plug, we need to calculate the correct insertion length of the pipe. But when we install the coupling with the location plug, we do not need to calculate this length. We can know the pipe position accurately when we install the pipe by touching the location plug. This makes the installation fast. After the installation, the location plug can effectively prevent the pipe from moving inside the coupling due to ground vibration, thermal expansion, and contraction, etc., so as to fix the pipe position. It prevents the pipe from moving inside and causing the seal to fail.
