1-1/2" SDR11 Con-Stab Pipe Adapter – Designed for High-Integrity Transitions
The 1-1/2" SDR11 Con-Stab Pipe Adapter provides a secure and dependable transition from polyethylene (PE) pipe to male iron pipe threads (MIPT). Engineered for fusionless applications, this fitting simplifies installation while maintaining strict tolerances required for pressurized gas or water systems. Its construction meets industry demands for field reliability and code compliance.
Key Features for Demanding Systems
✅ SDR11 Compatibility – Designed specifically for use with SDR11 medium-density or high-density PE pipe systems.
✅ Con-Stab Joint – Push-to-connect style coupling reduces the need for electrofusion or butt fusion equipment.
✅ MIPT Outlet – Threaded male iron pipe transition ensures adaptability to metallic fittings or system terminations.
✅ Corrosion-Resistant Materials – Non-metallic body and internal gripping components are engineered to resist environmental and chemical degradation.
✅ Code-Conforming Design – Suitable for underground gas and water piping applications where pressure ratings and safety protocols apply.
Specifications
Pipe Size (Inlet): 1-1/2" SDR11 PE pipe
Outlet Type: 1-1/2" Male Iron Pipe Thread (MIPT)
Body Material: Engineered polymer with internal stainless steel gripping rings
Connection Method: Mechanical compression (stab-type) with integrated O-ring seal
Typical Use: Natural gas, propane, potable water (consult local codes)
Installation Considerations
This adapter should be installed following the manufacturer’s installation guidelines. Pipe ends must be clean, cut square, and deburred. Stab depth should be verified using provided marking tools or templates. No heat fusion or solvents are required. Torque specifications for threaded outlet should be followed precisely to avoid leaks or damage. Proper chamfering of the pipe is essential for sealing performance.
Typical Applications
Used in underground gas distribution, municipal water infrastructure, and commercial site utility services. Commonly applied during new construction or retrofits where direct transition from PE to metallic pipe systems is required without fusion equipment.
Compliance Note
Installers must ensure that the fitting is certified for the intended use—such as ASTM D2513 for gas distribution or NSF-rated variants for potable water—based on local jurisdiction requirements.
