Fernco DTC-215 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Fernco DTC-215 coupling join 2 inch pipe to 1-1/2 inch pipe?
That is exactly what the DTC-215 does. It is a flexible reducer coupling sized 2 inch on one end and 1-1/2 inch on the other, so it transitions a 2 inch line down to 1-1/2 inch in a single fitting instead of stacking a bushing and a straight coupling.
2) What pressure is the Fernco DTC-215 flexible coupling rated for?
4.3 PSI. That puts it in non-pressure drain, waste and vent service, which is where these flexible couplings belong. Do not put it on a supply line or any pressurized run.
3) Can I use a Fernco DTC-215 on a buried or underground DWV line?
The DTC-215 is a flexible PVC reducer coupling rated at 4.3 PSI, so it is a non-pressure DWV fitting. Local plumbing codes govern where flexible couplings may be concealed or buried, so confirm the inspector in your jurisdiction accepts it in that location before you backfill.
4) Do I need glue or primer to install the Fernco DTC-215?
No solvent cement involved. It is a flexible sleeve coupling that slips over the two pipe ends and seals with its clamps, so the joint is mechanical. That also means it can be loosened and repositioned, which is why plumbers reach for it on repair cut-ins where there is no room to spin a pipe into a glued fitting.
5) Is the Fernco DTC-215 a repair coupling or a full transition fitting between different pipe materials?
It is sold as a flexible PVC reducer coupling for 2 inch to 1-1/2 inch. Fernco's numbered transition couplings are specified by the pipe materials on each side, so if you are joining cast iron, clay, or copper DWV to plastic, order the coupling whose listing names those materials rather than assuming this PVC reducer covers it.
6) What is the part number and color of the Fernco 2 x 1-1/2 inch reducer coupling?
Part number DTC-215, black. Order by that MPN if you are matching what is already on the job, since Fernco's coupling numbering runs close together and the adjacent sizes look nearly identical once they are out of the bag.
