McAlpine Universal Slip Through Straight Connector - 1.25" - No Pipe Stop

A 'slip through' design means the connector can slide completely over one of the pipes, allowing for more adjustment and flexibility in positioning the pipes before tightening the connections.

The 'No Pipe Stop' feature means there is no internal ridge to limit how far the pipe can be inserted. This offers maximum flexibility in pipe alignment but requires the installer to ensure adequate pipe insertion on both sides for a secure seal.

This connector is designed for 1.25" (32mm) diameter pipes.

Yes, it can be used with compatible metal pipes (like copper) provided they are the correct diameter and have a smooth, undamaged surface for sealing.

This connector is primarily designed for waste and drainage applications, which are typically low-pressure. It is not intended for high-pressure potable water systems.

Proper installation includes ensuring pipes are clean, fully inserted, and that the compression nuts are tightened evenly. For the slip-through type, verify sufficient pipe overlap within the connector.

It is made from high-quality, durable materials suitable for plumbing applications.

Ensure compression nuts are tightened evenly and sufficiently. Check that olives (if used) are correctly seated. Verify pipes are fully inserted into the connector and that no debris is interfering with the seal.

Ensure the pipe and connector are clean and dry. A small amount of silicone lubricant can aid insertion, but avoid petroleum-based lubricants which can damage plastics. Confirm that the pipe diameter is indeed 1.25" and compatible.

Double-check that the correct size connector is being used for the pipe diameter. Ensure the surface of the pipe is smooth and free from damage where the seal is made. Consider if additional support or a different type of fitting is needed for non-standard applications.
