3-inch polypropylene pipe coupling at BARR Plastics, meticulously crafted for superior connection. BARR's schedule 80 threaded pipe couplers are manufactured from glass-reinforced polypropylene for strength and durability and are pressure rated to 150 PSI at 0°F. Recommended pressure settings are as follows: 120 PSI at 0°F, 150 PSI at 70°F and 90 PSI at 150°F.
Product Introduction
The 3" Polypropylene Threaded Pipe Coupling (model 62242) from Barr Plastics is a lightweight, chemical-resistant coupling designed to join standard 3" threaded pipes quickly and securely. Built from durable polypropylene with female threads on both ends, this coupling is ideal for plumbing, irrigation, water treatment, and many chemical-handling systems.
Features & Specifications
- Model: 62242 (3" Polypropylene Threaded Pipe Coupling)
- Size: 3" diameter — fits standard 3" threaded pipe
- Material: Polypropylene — corrosion and chemical resistant
- Connection Type: Female threads on both ends for secure, threaded joins
- Weight: Lightweight compared to metal alternatives for easier handling and installation
- Safe for potable systems: Non-toxic material often used in food and water applications
- Installation: Threaded design allows quick assembly and disassembly with standard tools
- Notes: High temperature and chemical resistance — verify compatibility and operating temperature/pressure using the manufacturer datasheet for your specific application
Benefits & Applications
The 3" polypropylene threaded coupling solves common joining problems by offering a fast, reliable way to connect threaded pipe sections without welding or solvent cement. Its chemical resistance reduces corrosion-related failures and extends service life versus metal fittings in aggressive environments. The lightweight design speeds up installation and lowers handling costs on-site.
Typical applications include municipal and industrial water treatment, chemical processing lines, agricultural irrigation systems, and plumbing in food-processing or medical facilities where non-toxic materials are required. For example, replacing metal couplings with polypropylene can cut corrosion maintenance and improve uptime in chemical transfer lines.
Always confirm chemical compatibility and operating limits for temperature and pressure before use to ensure optimal performance.
