Selecting the Correct Full Coupling
Select the full coupling according to the nominal pipe size required by the piping system. These fittings are manufactured from 316 stainless steel and use equal-size socket-weld connections on both ends.
A full coupling is intended to join compatible piping of the same nominal size. If the installation requires a transition between different pipe sizes, select a reducing coupling instead.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a socket weld full coupling used for?
A socket weld full coupling joins two compatible sections of pipe in a straight inline connection.
What material are these couplings made from?
These full couplings are manufactured from 316 stainless steel.
What connections do these couplings use?
These fittings have socket-weld connections on both ends.
What pressure class are these fittings?
These stainless steel socket weld full couplings are 150 lb class fittings.
What sizes are available?
Available nominal pipe sizes are 1/2", 3/4", 1", 1-1/4", 1-1/2", and 2".
Are both ends the same nominal size?
Yes. These are full couplings with equal-size socket-weld connections on both ends.
