Step coupling is a transition coupling which has a step in the middle of the body to connect pipes with different outer diameters by two ends.   This coupling is essential in pipe systems where you need to transition between pipe sizes or pipe materials to ensure that pipes of different diameters can easily connect and maintain the integrity of the system.

Step coupling can transit HDPE pipe to PVC pipe , cast iron pipe to ductile iron pipe, PVC to Ductile Iron , Steel to PVC,HDPE to ductile iron etc.

Judberd can supply non restrained step coupling and restrained step coupling as below.

step coupling different diameter connection

Use

Different diameter pipe connections:When you need to connect pipes of different diameters, step coupling provides a convenient way to do so without using complicated adapters.

Connection of pipes made of various materials:Step coupling can typically be used to connect pipes made of different materials such as PVC, steel, cast iron, etc. This makes it more versatile.

Pipe repair: If part of the pipe is damaged or leaking, you can cut out the damaged section and use a step coupling to connect a new piece of pipe to quickly repair it.

Pipe extension: When you need to extend an existing pipe, a step coupling can connect the new and old pipes of different diameters to make the extension process easier.

Pipe renovation: When renovating a pipe system, you may need to connect pipes of different sizes. Step coupling makes it easy to do so with its flexibility and compatibility.
