Watts 718004 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What pipe size does the Watts 718004 Rionfuse coupling fit?
The Watts 718004 is a 3 inch coupling. It joins two lengths of 3 inch Blueline FRPP pipe, and the fitting wall thickness is 0.38 inch. Size is fixed, so for any other run diameter you need the matching size in the Blueline RFCF coupling range rather than this part number.
2) How does a Rionfuse coupling get joined - is it solvent weld or threaded?
Neither. Rionfuse is an electrofusion connection: the coupling carries an integral heating element, and a fusion control unit melts the coupling and the pipe surface together into one continuous joint. No solvent cement, no threads, no gaskets. That means you also need the fusion processor and leads on site to make the joint, which are separate from the fitting itself.
3) What part number do I order for a 3 inch Watts Blueline fusion coupling?
Order Watts 718004. That is the manufacturer part number for the 3 inch Rionfuse coupling in the Blueline FRPP RFCF coupling series, and it is the only model on the item, so there is no finish, end style or handing to specify.
4) Where can I get the dimensional data for the Watts 718004 coupling?
Watts publishes a spec sheet for the 718004 that is linked from the product information, and it carries the laying length and socket dimensions. From the catalog data itself you get the two numbers that usually matter on layout: 3 inch nominal pipe size and a 0.38 inch wall thickness.
