A.Y. McDonald 5182-001 1" No-Lead CTS Compression Service Coupling
The A.Y. McDonald 5182-001 is a 1" CTS compression service coupling designed for joining underground water service lines behind the wall or below grade, where a dependable, code-oriented connection matters more than appearance. Sized to CTS (copper tube size) dimensions, this coupling accepts 1" CTS tubing on each end via a compression connection, making it a straightforward choice for plumbers and utility contractors repairing or extending water service runs. As a no-lead (LF) fitting, it is intended for potable water service applications where lead-free materials are specified. The compression-style joint allows for field assembly without soldering or solvent welding, which speeds up installation in trenches and tight access points typical of service line work.
