Fernco plumbing products offer benefits such as easy installation, flexibility to fit various pipe sizes, leak-proof connections, and resistance to chemicals and corrosion.
A fernco or rubber fitting. This made of rubber and had hose clamps on it. You should ask for assistance at a hardware or plumbing shop for a 2" Plastic X 2" Copper Fernco or rubber coupling.
Yes, you can attach PVC pipe to ceramic pipe with a fernco. You just have to make sure the inside diameters of the fernco match up with the pipes you are joining.
A rubber Fernco or Clamp All
It is tricky but u can with a fernco if the copper dwv drain line is 1 1/2" in diamater use a 1 1/4" x 1 1/2" reducing fernco because the outside diamater of copper is smaller than abs or PVC
A fernco is a generic name given to a rubber sewer coupling. They are rubber couplings with a worm drive clamp on either side. They are used to join together two lengths of sewer pipe. It is just like calling all facial tissue "kleenex" or all frozen fruit treats "popsicles"! A fernco is a generic name given to a rubber sewer coupling.

Depending on what kind of leak you have, sometimes ferncos will fix pipe leaks but if its a fitting leak and on a nohub fitting then just replace the nohub bands and fittings but if its on a lead bell/spigot fitting then you most likely will have to change the whole fitting or fittings if they are close connected and change the to PVC or abs fittings and make sure you have supports if you are changing any vertical lines. "FERNCO" is barred from the better codes and most professional installer will never allow their use Ductile normally has a higher pressure rating then "service weight" or No Hub CI Your best repair would ber na Mechanical joint or Mission coupling or a extra strong no hub coupling. A semi skilled welder can also do a decent job welding cast iton
yes. A no-hub coupling or FERNCO (brand name) coupling work well.
Clay has a bell part, attach below the bell a FERNCO rubber boot type fitting which is the diameter of the clay pipe. It will go from PVC pipe to the clay pipe. The Fernco are heavy neoprene rubber tubes with stainless steel squeeze straps at each end. You might want to use some black piping tape over the metal if you're going to put this underground. For inserting a spigot end into a bell ,, there are some good epoxys made for this purpose.. Use PVC it's easier to work with.. For the other side, I'd personally just avoid the bell and cut it off with a circular saw with a masonary blade than use epoxys. Check with your local inspection people .. They should be able to give some good advice..
Cut the toilet line down at the first 90 from the flange, and relocate so that your toilet is still vented from it's orignal vent. If it is dry vented, you need to move the toilet and the vent. A no-hub band or fernco coupling is the preferred transistion from cast iron to PVC.Ans 2 -good advice. - BTW, - a Fernco is a heavy duty rubber coupling with a hose clamp each end. They come in many sizes.
There are rubber adapter couplings sold to adapt PVC to Cast Iron. "Fernco" in one brand sold in the U.S.
If you don't know, you probably should just go ahead and call a plumber! Lol. Seriously though, hand tight with a nut driver is usually adequate
