Slip joints are present when Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) material is used for plumbing connections. The raw end of the PVC pipe slides into the end with threads. However, it requires a slip joint nuts and washer system to prevent water from leaking from the joint. The slip joint nut compresses the washer to form a tight leak-proof seal at the joint, thereby preventing any leakages.
The Coupling Slip Joint from Durapro allows extension and compression in a linear structure. The product enables an adjustment, by unclamping from a fixed position and re-clamping to another. These are commonly used in wastewater plumbing, installed under kitchen sinks. The slip joint has a gasket that is attached to the pipe end. The Slip Joint Washer from National Brand Alternative comes in a pack of 50. The product has a tapered and flat end that snugly fits and joins the pipe ends. Other products available here are No putty Sink Gasket, Poly Tail-piece Washers, Assorted Poly Washers Transparent, and more.
