Factory Direct Sale 2 Inch Threaded Coupling Stainless Steel Full Merchant Coupling 304/316 Stainless Steel Threaded Pipe Fittings
Merchant steel full couplings conform to ASTM A865 and ASME B1.20.1 standards and play a significant role in various applications.
Sizes Available:
1/8"-2" Straight Tapped(NPS), 2 1/2"-6" Taper Tapped(NPT).
Merchant Couplings in 2" sizes are available Taper Tapped as special.
Material:
These merchant couplings are constructed from robust, corrosion-resistant stainless steel and are ideal for environments where durability and resistance to corrosion are essential.
Merchant couplings are particularly useful in various applications, including but not limited to:
When connecting pipes in a well, merchant couplings provide the necessary strength to handle the weight of the pipe, water, and submersible pump.
Industrial piping systems are standard in many industrial applications because they are secure, have reliable connections, and leak uneasy.
Construction or heavy machinery in situations where high strength and corrosion resistance are critical, such as in heavy machinery and construction equipment.
So many different types of couplings are available, each with its specific application. For example, you may consider using merchant couplings when connecting drop pipes in a well.
Available in black, galvanized, and stainless steel, each material offers advantages such as increased corrosion resistance or cost-effectiveness.
Unlike standard couplings, full merchant couplings offer a larger diameter and wall thickness, providing additional strength and stability for critical applications needing a secure connection.
Full merchant couplings are more robust, and you can use a full merchant coupling in a drop pipe in a water well because it would hold the weight of the pipe, water, and the submersible pump.
Limitations in Plumbing:
The taper-tapped are better than the full merchant couplings for sealing plumbing systems that require waterproofing and reliability.
Please note that full merchant couplings should never be used as a pipe fitting in a plumbing system where a watertight seal is critical. However, taper-tapped merchant couplings would be acceptable to use for this type of application.
