නිෂ්පාදනය අවසන්view
The Fernco QwikFlex Pipe Connection Kit is engineered for ease of use and reliable performance in DWV applications. It eliminates the need for primers, glues, or special tools, simplifying pipe connections.
ප්රධාන ලක්ෂණ:
- Pipe Connector Kit: Designed for connecting drain, waste, and vent pipes and fittings in hard-to-reach areas or to join misaligned pipes.
- පහසු ස්ථාපනය: Simply measure, cut, and fasten. No need for odorful primers, glues, or a slew of fittings. No special tools needed.
- විශ්වාසදායක සම්බන්ධතාවය: Creates strong, leak-proof pipe joints up to 24-inches in length. Backed by over five decades of proven performance.
- කට්ටල සංරචක: Includes two 12-inch long flexible couplings, one 45-Degree Connector, and one Straight Connector.
- පිරිවිතර: Large hubs connect to 1-1/2" SCH40 PVC pipe. Made in the USA. Meets ASTM C1173 Standard. QwikFlex couplings can flex for up to 20-degree offsets.

වැදගත්: This product is specifically designed for Drain, Waste, and Vent (DWV) applications only. It is නැත suitable for pressure applications. Ensure the system pressure does not exceed 4.3 PSI.
Always consult local codes and authorities prior to installation to ensure compliance with all applicable regulations.
සැකසුම සහ ස්ථාපනය
The QwikFlex Pipe Connector Kit is designed for straightforward installation. Follow these steps for a secure and leak-proof connection.
ස්ථාපන පියවර:
- Prepare the Couplings: Tighten all bands on the QwikFlex couplings to 60 inch-pounds before installation.
- මැනීම සහ කැපීම: Measure the required length for your connection. QwikFlex couplings can be cut to length as needed. Ensure clean, straight cuts.
- පෙළගස්වා ඇතුළු කරන්න: Align the QwikFlex couplings to determine where to cut. Insert the cut coupling into the existing pipes or fittings.
- Fasten Connections: Insert the cut coupling into the QwikFlex couplings and tighten the bands to 60 inch-pounds.
- කාන්දුවීම් සඳහා පරීක්ෂණය: After installation, thoroughly test the system for any leaks.
සටහන: Straight and 45-degree connectors increase versatility. QwikFlex components are not intended to support other pipe or fittings; support and brace the assembly as well as the pipe and fittings they are connected to.
Do not over-flex the QwikFlex couplings, as this could cause them to kink and create an obstruction.

මෙහෙයුම් මූලධර්ම
Once properly installed, the Fernco QwikFlex Pipe Connector Kit provides a durable and flexible connection for DWV systems. Its elastomeric polyvinyl chloride (PVC) construction ensures resilience against soil conditions, and it is designed to be leak-proof and root-proof.
The flexible nature of the couplings allows for joining pipes with minor misalignments, up to 20-degree offsets, making it ideal for challenging installations where rigid fittings may not suffice.
නඩත්තු කිරීම
The Fernco QwikFlex Pipe Connector Kit is designed for long-lasting, maintenance-free performance once installed correctly.
- වරින් වර පරීක්ෂා කිරීම: Periodically inspect the connections for any signs of leaks or damage, especially if the system experiences significant temperature fluctuations or ground movement.
- පිරිසිදු කිරීම: The exterior of the couplings can be cleaned with mild soap and water if necessary. Avoid harsh chemicals that could degrade the PVC material.
- පාරිසරික සාධක: The PVC material is unaffected by typical soil conditions, but ensure the surrounding area remains free of sharp objects or excessive external pressure that could compromise the pipe.
