Insert Couplings

Common Applications

Insert couplings are commonly used in irrigation systems to connect two sections of poly tubing. They’re ideal for joining two lengths of pipe, especially during repairs or system extensions. Couplings are also used to reconnect a pipe after cutting it to insert a tee or valve. They're frequently paired with hose clamps to ensure secure, leak-free connections. Insert couplings also come in various sizes to match different pipe diameters. They're easy to install and don’t require glue or special adhesives. Overall, they offer a quick, reliable way to build or modify irrigation systems.

Insert Coupling FAQs

Do I need clamps with insert couplings?

Most of the time, you will need clamps with insert couplings to ensure a secure, leak-free connection. The barbed design of the coupling holds the pipe in place, but clamps provide the extra grip needed to handle water pressure and temperature changes. Without clamps, the pipe can loosen over time, leading to leaks or blowouts.

Are insert couplings compatible with all types of irrigation pipes?

Poly insert couplings are not compatible with all types of irrigation pipes. They are specifically designed for use with flexible polyethylene tubing. Always match the coupling type and size to your pipe material and diameter to ensure a proper, leak-free fit.

Can insert couplings be reused?

Insert couplings can be reused as long as they are not cracked, warped, or damaged. Before reusing, inspect the barbs for wear and make sure they still provide a snug fit. Also, use new clamps when possible to ensure a secure, leak-free connection.
