Philmac CTS-OD Compression Repair Coupling without Stop | ASTM D2737

The Philmac CTS-OD Compression Repair Coupling without Stop provides a convenient and dependable solution for repairing damaged polyethylene water lines without replacing an entire section of pipe. Designed for Copper Tube Size Outside Diameter (CTS-OD) polyethylene pipe manufactured to ASTM D2737, this compression fitting is ideal for livestock watering systems, agricultural water distribution, and farm water line repairs.

Unlike standard compression couplings, this repair coupling features a no-stop design, allowing the fitting to slide farther along the pipe during installation. This makes it particularly useful when repairing existing water lines where pipe movement is limited.

Philmac compression fittings provide secure mechanical connections without requiring specialized heat fusion or welding equipment, making them a practical choice for maintaining and repairing HDPE water systems.

What Is the Difference Between a Coupling with Stop and a Repair Coupling without Stop?

Standard Compression Coupling with Stop:

A standard coupling features an internal pipe stop that helps position both pipe ends correctly during installation. It is commonly used when joining two sections of polyethylene pipe during new installations or extensions.

Compression Repair Coupling without Stop:

A repair coupling does not have an internal pipe stop, allowing it to slide farther along the pipe during installation.

This makes it easier to position the coupling over an existing water line repair, particularly when the pipe cannot easily be moved or separated.

For repairs on existing water lines, a no-stop repair coupling can make installation significantly easier.

Important Compatibility Information

This repair coupling is designed for CTS-OD polyethylene pipe (ASTM D2737).

CTS-OD pipe has different outside diameter dimensions than IPS-OD (ASTM D3035) and IPS-ID (SIDR ASTM D2239) polyethylene pipe.

Always verify your pipe's outside diameter and sizing standard before purchasing compression fittings.

When installing a repair coupling, ensure both pipe ends are properly prepared and inserted to the manufacturer's recommended depth to create a secure connection.
