Flexible drain coupling for size transition
This flexible coupling connects a 3 in pipe to a 1-1/2 in pipe using an elastomeric PVC body and 300 stainless steel bands. It meets ASTM C1173 and measures 4 in overall length with an inside diameter of 3-25/64 in by 1-57/64 in. The fitting is rated for 4.3 psi maximum pressure and 140 degrees F maximum temperature. It resists chemicals, fungus growth, normal sewer gases and ultraviolet rays.
For installers joining dissimilar drain sizes
The coupling suits residential and light commercial drain lines where a 3 in to 1-1/2 in transition is required and ASTM C1173 compliance is specified. It is not for pressure lines exceeding 4.3 psi, for systems operating above 140 degrees F, or for applications needing a rigid structural joint rather than a flexible seal.
3 in by 1-1/2 in pipe size compatibility
The single specification that decides fit is the 3 in x 1-1/2 in pipe size designation. Verify both pipe outside diameters match this coupling's inside diameter of 3-25/64 in by 1-57/64 in before purchase.

Questions about this item
What pipe sizes must I already have for the 1056-315 coupling to fit?
The coupling connects a 3 in pipe to a 1-1/2 in pipe, with inside diameters of 3-25/64 in and 1-57/64 in respectively.
Will the 300 stainless steel bands on this coupling corrode if I reuse my existing cast iron drainage pipes?
The 300 stainless steel bands resist normal sewer gases, chemicals and fungus growth, so they will not corrode when joined to cast iron.
How can I confirm the 1056-315 is seated correctly after installation?
When fully inserted, the 4 in fitting length should be evenly engaged on both pipes and the bands tightened until the elastomeric PVC body compresses uniformly.
