Q:How much leeway in the sleeve for installation? Two-inch plastic tubing has a 2 3/8 outside diameter (about the inner diameter of the purchased sleeve), but cast iron is 2 1/2 o.d. Is there a trick to sliding the smaller sleeve over bigger, rougher pipe?

Answer This Question

A:  Specified pipe sizes differ in this case--2.5 (iron) vs. 2. 375 (plastic). How do you get the 2.375 sleeve over the 2.5 iron?

    A:  Hello, Thank you for your interest in our products, unfortunately there is no leeway as these are made to fit specified pipe sizes.

          A:  I believe you want the p3001 for copper pipe connection. You can see the list of what connects to what on Fernco's website a bit clearer https://www.fernco.com/plumbing/shielded-couplings/proflex-couplings

          by|Jul 30, 2023

            A:  Apparently the "Fernco Product Expert" can't read their own product description: "Designed for use with cast-iron, plastic, steel and copper drain, waste and vent systems"

              A:  I have never try on a copper pipe. This is usually used for abs piping.

                  Excellent. No leaks. Quality product.
                  Used this for my HE furnace exhaust vent. I had to cut the pvc pipe and clean out the pigeon poop. Used vertically. Easily installed. Neoprene wouldn't slide on as expected so I had to fold it back, place the pvc pipe and then fold it back over. I originally had the other fernco flex coupling on but it leaked. This proflex shielded coupling is much better. If you have an all pvc job, this 3000-22 connector is the correct one. I was originally planning on using a pvc union on the pipe but there wasn't enough room for the screw on collar.

                  This gadget works for other things other than plumbing. I have a backpack blower but the straight tube only works on the right side and it is difficult to direct the air away from the fence without blowing leaves through the fence and into the neighbors yard. For the last few years I've been looking at the manufacturer of the blower for something to put on the end of the air tube with nothing available. I saw this item at Home Depot and wondered if it would work for me. I measured the end of the blower tube and headed to HD. Turns out the outside of a standard 2" 90 degree gradual El has the same outside measurement as the blower tube. I bought the El and this coupling. I attached the coupling, without the inner neoprene shield, to the outside of the El and the end of the blower tube. It works GREAT. The blower tube can rotate so it can direct the air left or right. The 2" El actually gives a more powerful air flow so I don't have to run the blower so hard and has more control of the flow. If you don't want the El on, you can easily remove it with a socket wrench. You could also use a 45 degree El if you're shorter and it is more comfortable for you.
