2" R/L Galvanized Coupling (2 R/L GALV COUP)
This is a specialty threaded pipe coupling used to join two 2-inch pipes where one end uses right-hand threads and the other uses left-hand threads.
What it is
A galvanized steel coupling:
- One side is right-hand thread (standard NPT)
- Other side is left-hand thread (reverse thread)
- Size: 2 inch nominal pipe size
What it does
- Connects two sections of 2" pipe
- Allows tightening/loosening action from one direction
- Often used where rotation or tensioning is needed in the piping system
- Helps prevent the joint from loosening under vibration or movement
Key features
- Material: galvanized steel (corrosion-resistant zinc coating)
- Connection type: threaded (R/L = right-hand / left-hand threads)
- Design: straight coupling (same size both ends)
- Requires proper matching pipe threads (one RH, one LH)
Common applications
- Mechanical piping systems with vibration or movement
- Industrial equipment connections
- Tensioning or adjustable piping assemblies
- Specialty plumbing or maintenance systems
