Flexseal Rubber Standard Drainage Coupling SC165 ( 140mm - 165mm )

Flexseal provides the most extensive range of Standard Couplings available in the marketplace and has revolutionised traditional pipe repair methods over the years. Flexseal Standard Couplings are specifically designed to connect and repair pipes of different materials or sizes used in sewerage, drainage and other underground applications. When excavation work is required to repair a damaged pipe, Flexseal Standard Couplings will reduce the amount of time required and minor differences in pipe diameter can be accommodated. The combination of a durable design and excellent sealing properties when tightened to the correct torque enable the Flexseal Standard Coupling to provide a reliable seal on rough pipe surfaces e.g. concrete, as well as on smooth surfaces e.g. PVC. Standard Couplings can be combined with Flexseal Bushes in order to act as an adaptor between pipelines of differingoutside diameters. Flexseal can also supply the product with nitrile sleeves for use with effluent which may be contaminated with hydrocarbons. Couplings are also available with Grade 1.4401 (316) stainless steel for improved corrosion protection.
