1-1/2" FNPT Malleable Banded Coupling

This ZORO SELECT banded coupling connects two 1-1/2 inch FNPT pipe ends in plumbing installations. The malleable iron construction provides mechanical strength for threaded joint assemblies. It is suited for residential and light commercial piping systems where a secure female-threaded connection is required.

Replacing worn or leaking threaded couplings

Use this fitting when an existing 1-1/2 inch FNPT coupling shows corrosion, thread damage or leakage at the joint. The 300 pressure-class rating supports typical water, air and inert gas lines within its design limits. The upgrade is worth it when the old fitting can no longer maintain a tight seal under normal operating pressure.

Simple thread-on installation with pipe sealant

Apply appropriate thread sealant or tape to the male pipe threads before engaging the coupling. Tighten to the recommended torque for 1-1/2 inch NPT to avoid cracking the malleable iron. The most common issue is cross-threading or over-tightening, which damages threads and creates leak paths.

Questions about this item

What pipe size and thread type does the 1-1/2" FNPT malleable coupling fit?

It connects to 1-1/2 inch pipe with female NPT threads on both ends.

How is the banded coupling installed and which step is often missed?

Clean threads, apply sealant, hand-tighten, then wrench-tighten; the step often missed is using the correct sealant for NPT threads.

When should the malleable iron coupling be inspected or replaced?

Inspect periodically for corrosion, cracks, or leaks; replace if any damage is found or after system pressure tests fail.
