Lateral Pipe Connections
Lateral Pipe Connection Solutions: Complete Systems for Mainline Infrastructure
When infrastructure projects require reliable lateral connections to mainlines, professionals turn to proven connection systems that deliver both performance and compliance. JointsCouplings provides a comprehensive portfolio of lateral connection solutions designed specifically for gravity sewer, stormwater, and drainage applications where mainline-to-lateral connections are critical for system functionality and long-term reliability.
Whether you're establishing new lateral connections, adapting to mismatched pipe sizes, or creating emergency access points, our lateral connection systems address the full spectrum of infrastructure challenges. From precision-engineered saddle connections that tap directly into mainlines to versatile bushing systems that accommodate diameter transitions, each solution is designed to create watertight, structurally sound connections that maintain system integrity while accommodating the movement and settlement inherent in underground infrastructure.
Features
