The 30 second pipe solution that is taking over building sites
Launched in response to market feedback, Fernco's Icon range has been making significant strides in the drainage industry by providing a seamless solution for connecting pipelines made from any material via their internal surface.
This innovative product addresses common on-site challenges, such as pipes encased in concrete or surrounded by brickwork, where external connections are not possible. It also solves the issue of pipelines that have been sheared close to the floor or wall, leaving no excess for attaching traditional external couplings.
The Icon range features a push-fit design for simple, tool-free installation, reducing both labour costs and on-site time. Its clever design eliminates the internal joint step often seen in traditional connections, while maintaining superior joint stability against shear load forces.
During the product's development, contractors expressed their enthusiasm for an internal coupling solution, and now Fernco's Icon push-fit is being widely adopted in regeneration and maintenance projects by water and utility contractors, who have praised it as a "real life-saver on site."
The Icon features a pipe stop to ensure even insertion into each pipe, along with multiple sealing ribs to guarantee a watertight seal. Its tapered edge minimises the risk of snags, creating a smooth transition within the pipe that allows for natural flow.
WRc approved and tested by thousands, the Icon range includes six variations designed to offer straight connections for DN100 and DN150 pipes, as well as adaptor connections for linking DN100 to DN150 pipe sizes.
A highly versatile product, the Icon push-fit is ready to tackle any challenge and remains the only universal push-fit solution on the market for any DN100 and DN150 pipe.
