Atlas PVC Socket 50mm × 1 1/2", Step Coupler, Solvent-Weld, Leak-Tight Seal

It connects 50 mm PVC pipe to 1 1/2 inch imperial PVC pipe, providing a smooth transition between the two sizing standards.

Prepare and clean the pipe ends, dry fit first, then apply PVC primer to both ends followed by PVC cement on the outer surface of the 50 mm end and the inner surface of the 1 1/2 inch end. Push the pipes together fully and twist slightly to ensure full penetration. Allow the joint to cure per the cement manufacturer’s guidance.

Made from high quality PVC, it is corrosion resistant and designed for moisture and chemical exposure. The interior is smooth to promote efficient flow, and it is suitable for medium pressure systems.

Ideal for irrigation manifolds, water features, and plantroom connections where mixed metric and imperial components are used, especially in upgrading UAE installations.

Yes, it is designed for medium pressure plumbing systems. If you expect higher pressures or temperatures, check system specifications and consider alternatives rated for higher conditions.

Cut and deburr the pipes, dry fit the assembly, prime both ends, apply cement to the appropriate surfaces, insert and twist to seat, then hold until the cement begins to set. After installation, allow the joint to cure as recommended by the cement manufacturer.

Work in a well ventilated area, wear eye protection and gloves, avoid skin contact with cement, keep away from heat sources, and store cement and primers according to manufacturer directions.

When choosing between options, consider pipe sizes to be joined, whether you need a solvent weld or push fit connection, and the project’s pressure and exposure conditions.

After it cures, inspect joints for any signs of leakage, test the system at a moderate pressure, and observe for a period to ensure the joint remains watertight under normal operating conditions.

Typically you will need PVC primer and cement suited for the pipe sizes, compatible 50 mm and 1-1/2 inch pipes, and any additional fittings required to complete the network. Ensure all parts are rated for the intended pressure and environmental conditions.

For sun exposed areas, a UV protective finish is recommended to maintain durability and color under desert conditions. Plan for outdoor exposure and select materials accordingly.

Key factors include the exact pipe sizes you need to join, whether you require a solvent-weld versus a slip or push-fit connection, the environmental exposure, and the project budget. Review the available options such as the 50 mm to 1-1/4 inch step variant, the 50 mm to 2 inch step variant, or a 50 mm to 1-1/2 inch slip coupler to determine the best fit for your system.
