What schedule pipe?
The best way to connect two sections of PVC pipe with a 2 inch PVC coupling is to first clean and dry the pipe ends, apply PVC primer and cement to the ends and inside the coupling, then quickly push the pipe ends into the coupling and hold them in place for a few seconds to allow the cement to bond.
The maximum pressure rating for a 2 inch schedule 80 PVC pipe is typically around 400 psi.
The maximum pressure rating for a 2 inch schedule 80 PVC pipe is typically around 400 psi.
The maximum weight capacity that can be supported by a 2 inch schedule 40 PVC pipe is approximately 250 pounds.

Electrical trade sizes of PVC conduit are, - 1/2" = 12.5mm, 3/4" = 19mm, 1" = 25mm, 1 1/4" = 32mm, 1 1/2" = 38mm, 2" = 50mm, 3" = 75mm, 4" = 100mm.
The standard length of a PVC pipe is typically 10 or 20 feet, depending on the manufacturer and the specific type of pipe. In some cases, shorter lengths, such as 2 or 5 feet, may also be available for specific applications. The diameter of the pipe can vary, but the lengths remain consistent across most PVC products.
