When the bands are tightened the corrugations squeeze together and line up to lock against each other. The shield was designed for the no-hub couplings to adjust to variations in diameters of the pipes to be joined and for added strength. What is the advantage of the shield on the no-hub coupling?"Ī. "The flexible rubber coupling appears much thicker than a no-hub coupling. No-hub or shielded couplings can be used above or below ground because the shield provides extra strength to the coupling. Flexible rubber couplings are for use underground. You should not replace a shielded no-hub coupling with a flexible rubber coupling if it is an above ground installation or repair. "Can I use these flexible rubber couplings in place of a shielded no-hub coupling?"Ī. These trap adapter flexible couplings are so flexible they will usually tighten down one or 2 sizes more than the pipes shown that they fit, but we would suggest you use a coupling closer to the actual size you need which in this case would be the 1-1/2" x 1-1/4" coupling. Will the 1-1/2" x 1-1/2" trap adapter work for this application?"Ī.

"The trap under my kitchen sink has 1-1/2" OD (outside diameter) pipe. These trap adapters can be used for repairs or alterations or for new installations. Trap Adapters are fittings used to connect the piping from the P-trap to the piping coming out from the wall or floor.
