Plasson Mechanical Compression Male Adaptor - 63mmx2"

The coupler is made from virgin Polypropylene, known for its impact strength and stress resistance.

Yes, its robust construction and resistance to UV and frost make it well-suited for outdoor and underground applications.

Basic tools like a wrench for final tightening are recommended, but the primary connection is hand-tightened. No specialized pipe joining equipment is typically required.

The captive O-ring is essential for creating a watertight seal, preventing any water from escaping the connection.

This coupler is designed specifically for MDPE and MDPE irrigation pipes. It is not intended for use with metal pipes.

This indicates the pipe's nominal diameter (63mm) that the coupler fits on one end, and the male thread size (2 inches) on the other end.

Due to its robust Polypropylene construction and resistance to UV and frost, it is designed for long-term durability in outdoor environments.

Ensure the pipe is fully inserted and the nut is tightened sufficiently. Verify that a pipe liner is used with MDPE pipes. Check for any debris on the pipe end or inside the fitting.

Ensure the pipe end is cut square and is free of burrs. Slightly chamfering the pipe end can help. Ensure the correct pipe size is being used with the fitting.

Confirm the captive O-ring is correctly seated and undamaged. Retighten the compression nut. Ensure the pipe surface is smooth where the seal makes contact.
