1 inch SDR 11 Con-Stab Pipe Adapter Male IPS

1 Inch SDR 11 Con-Stab Pipe Adapter – Male IPS Transition for Gas and Water Systems

The 1 inch SDR 11 Con-Stab Pipe Adapter Male IPS is engineered for joining polyethylene (PE) gas or water pipe to metal IPS-threaded systems. This mechanical fitting offers a reliable transition between plastic and metal components while maintaining pressure integrity and compliance with industry performance standards.

Performance and Construction Standards

This adapter is designed to connect SDR 11 PE pipe to 1 inch male iron pipe size (IPS) threaded components without the need for fusion equipment. The con-stab compression design simplifies installation while maintaining a secure, leak-resistant seal under operational pressure loads.

• ✅ Precision-Fabricated Sealing Surfaces Engineered contact zones deliver consistent engagement with PE pipe.
• ✅ Lead-Free, Corrosion-Resistant Construction Manufactured from materials approved for potable systems and exposed environments.
• ✅ Pressure-Rated Meets or exceeds performance thresholds for underground gas and potable water systems using SDR 11 PE tubing.
• ✅ Integrated Internal Grippers Provide mechanical retention without fusion or external clamps.
• ✅ Standards Compliance Compliant with ASTM D2513 and other applicable specifications for mechanical fittings in polyethylene piping systems.

Installation Guidelines

This fitting is designed for direct stab-in installation and requires no special heat fusion tools. Proper pipe preparation—including cutting squarely and chamfering—is critical to ensure sealing and restraint integrity. Always follow manufacturer torque specifications for threaded connections and use approved thread sealant where applicable.

Common Applications

Typically used in gas distribution and municipal water supply systems, this 1 inch adapter facilitates transition points in new service installations and system extensions. Also applicable in repair and upgrade work for residential, commercial, and utility projects involving SDR 11 PE pipe.

Regulatory and Material Compliance

Lead-free design conforms with U.S. Safe Drinking Water Act requirements and supports regulatory mandates for non-toxic materials in potable systems. Mechanical joint fittings are widely accepted by gas utilities and municipal inspectors due to their verifiable sealing mechanisms and traceable manufacturing specifications.

This 1 inch SDR 11 Con-Stab Pipe Adapter with Male IPS thread offers a tested and code-compliant method of transitioning from polyethylene pipe to metal threaded systems—supporting long-term system performance with installation efficiency.
