Fernco Shear Banded Coupling - Size 160-185mm - [FRN-SC185]

Fernco Shear Banded Coupling - Size 160-185mm - [FRN-SC185]

Fernco shear banded couplings are specifically designed to connect and repair pipes on adopted sewer and drainage applications, as required by the UK water companies. The stainless steel central band protects the joint under shear loads and helps to keep the joining pipes aligned, helping to prevent pipe displacement. 

• Withstands internal pressure of up to 2.5 bar Stainless steel shear band helps prevent pipe displacement 
• Less excavation compared to replacing a whole length of pipe
•  Approved to WIS 4-41-01 
• Flexible couplings for gravity sewerage and drainage pipes 
• Complies to BS EN 681-1:1996, BS EN 295-4:2013 & BS EN 10088-2:1995

Standard Couplings: 50mm – 620mm

Fernco Standard Couplings are a range of set size shear banded couplings covering the most common connection requirements. With the most comprehensive range and stock holding in the market, Fernco supply the smallest domestic projects to the largest global projects with ease.

Sizes start from 50mm up to 620mm, after which Fernco can manufacture to specific size requirements. See technical datasheet download for list of sizes available.

All Fernco Standard Couplings are manufactured in accordance to ISO 9001:2015 and comply with BS EN 295-4:2013 and WIS 4-41-01, suitable for private and adopted (public) drainage and sewers.

Applications

When used individually or combined with bushes, Fernco Standard Couplings have many applications in the construction, repair and maintenance of pipe systems:

• As a joint for plain ended pipes
• Repair and maintenance of existing pipelines
• Connecting short and cut lengths of pipe
• Making post construction connections to an existing pipeline
• Reconnection of laterals on renovated sewers
• Introducing a rocker pipe outside manholes or structures
• When used with bushes can accommodate differing pipe diameters

• Withstands an internal pressure of up to 2.5 bar
• A proven, tested and durable coupling design ensuring a high performance and a reliable connection
• Stainless steel shear band provides excellent resistance to heavy loads and shear forces to ensures joint integrity and pipe alignment
• Complies with WIS 4-41-01 (all public sewers and sewers for adoption)
• Complies with BS EN 295 Part 4 & EN681-1: 1996 requirements for vitrified clay pipes and fittings
