Magicmend Schedule 40 1 in. Slip PVC Insider Connector

Liked the product, used in lawn sprinkler system

If you do not have at the local hardware, order this and keep one in your supply box.This item let me join 1" pipe in a very tight location where there was no room. Highly recommended.

We paid a ridiculous amount of money to a guy to redo our sprinkler system. After two years, we had a couple of serious breaks, and when I inspected, found that he had not used schedule 40 for pressurized system at the valves. He had used pipe that was for drainage. Because everything was tight and would have required multiple fitting replacements, I found this solution. I saved me hours worth of extra work. I just don't understand why they don't sell this at the plumbing supply store.

This is the BEST!!!!! I had cemented in a PVC overflow pipe in my pond and recently did a ton of digginga nd rearranging of pipes. In the process, I broke off the overflow! This was going to be big effort to fix, until I thought of looking for a fix. This worked!

I had an inaccessible leak in a kitchen sink (main) drain pipe (embedded in my home's concrete wall) with very little working space. The only fix was to insert pieces of a 1" PVC pipe inside my leaking pipe to make the fix. I could not increase the 1" PVC pipe diameter (about 1.3" in reality) , and I needed to reach my new pipe 30" into the pipe with only about 12" of working room, so these insider connectors allowed me to connect and push the little 12" pieces of 1" PVC pipe inside the leaking pipe while making everything fit. These connectors also come in 1.25" and 1.50" PVC sizes, but this 1" size is less common.As for timing, I ordered the piece late on a Friday, and I received it the following Thursday.

The connecter was just as described and I'm sure will work excellent on Sch. 40 PVC. My repair was for a lawn irrigation system where I have some thin-walled PVC that looks just like 1" PVC on the outside but is not as thick as Sch 40. I was not able to use the coupler because of that. This part was made to use only on Sch 40 PVC, as described in the description.....no thin walled irrigation pipe or Sch 80 (thick walled). I would buy again to use on Sch 40 PVC.
