Fernco 1056-86 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Fernco 1056-86 coupling join 8 inch pipe to 6 inch pipe?
That is exactly what the 1056-86 is built for. It's an 8 inch by 6 inch flexible compression coupling, so it takes the larger 8 inch line on one end and steps down to a 6 inch line on the other. Ordering it for two same-size ends would be the wrong part, you'd want a straight coupling in a single size instead.
2) Is the Fernco 1056-86 a no-hub band or a flexible compression coupling?
It's a flexible compression coupling, model 1056-86, in an 8 inch to 6 inch reducing size. The sleeve slips over both pipe ends and the clamps compress it down onto the pipe, so there's no solvent weld, no hot work, and no gasketed hub prep. That also means it flexes with minor misalignment between the two lines rather than fighting it, which is the reason it gets used on repair cut-ins.
3) Can I use the Fernco 1056-86 to transition from an existing 8 inch line to new 6 inch drain pipe?
Yes. The 1056-86 is a reducing coupling, 8 inch on one side and 6 inch on the other, and it seals by compression rather than by cement, so it works where the existing 8 inch pipe can't be primed and glued. For an underground or buried joint, back the coupling per your local code and bed it so the two pipe ends stay in line.
