NDS 118-10 Pro-Span PVC Expansion Repair Coupling, For Broken or Cracked In-Ground PVC Pipes, 1-Inch IPS Slip X Spigot, White

I used this to make it easy to tee off of a sprinkler line. No leaks and easy to install.

Love these repair sleeves! So far no negative comments with my original repair in the ground for over 3-years (and shallow might I add so zero-turn and my small 30 hp tractor routinely drives over). I now maintain a selection for the pipes I have in the ground of 3/4” and 1” sprinkler piping. Benefits: - reduced labor - since the sleeve allows for bridging the gap of a broke section, I do not have to open as much ground as I did with using a collar or installation of a union (which I have had leaks from due to running over the ground after repairs to pack it down - reliable - see note above as I was concerned about kinking, roots, etc causing the sleeve to leak around the sliding seals but solid as a rock so far - cost effective - I prefer this due to the above comments although the collar is always cheaper but I had to open 3-4 feet of hole on either side of the break and closely estimate the cutting length before pulling the pipe up in an arc to gain enough clearance to slide the pipe fitting(s) onto the repaired section. Hope that makes sense?

An ingenious solution that makes connecting and repairing PVC sprinkler lines a snap! Well-made and surprisingly easy to use compared to traditional PVC fittings, these expansion-repair couplings take a fraction of the time—plus less effort digging and trenching—to install versus a conventional repair. As an avid home landscaper, I strongly recommend keeping one or two of these on hand for quick, easy installations and emergency repairs.

Works just as described very easy

This was very easy to figure out and use. Repaired my water line in no time with no problems.

Product has worked very well. Made it very easy to do a midline repair highly recommend. Using on a high pressure pool pump line with no leaks.

Works as expected. Local hardware store did not have it

These are awesome! it’s nice to be able to use one of these rather than to have to dig up 20’ of pipe in order to replace a section. With this product, you can dig up a couple of feet , cut out a section and glue one end of the fitting. Then just slide the other end of the fitting out and glue up. Done. In all fairness, you will need to get a good pack on the dirt around the fitting when covering. Otherwise pressure changes will cause it to slide in and out. This might eventually break t eh glue loose.

a good fix for pipe in the ground had to do some sanding for 2 inch pipe to fit into 2 inch connector but seems to work

No instructions come with it. Installed as per website instructions. Leaked after allowing glue to dry. Contacted manufacturer and asked about the proper positioning of expansion piece. They say it should be at mid travel, no where is that discussed anywhere I looked. Who recommended using if downstream of solenoid valve incase of leak.

We were so excited to find this product. Working in a tight space, this seemed to be the answer. Unfortunately it leaks. We did order a second one hoping we just got a lemon. I will let you know how the second one goes.
