A method and device for repair and replacement of pipe broken at a junction.
The
device includes a coupler having a female end and a male end. The female end of
the coupler has an inside diameter that will accept snugly the removed end of the
broken pipe. The male end has an outside diameter that will snuggly fit into a
new junction. The method and device is normally used with PVC pipe. When PVC pipe
entering a junction is broken near the junction, the junction may be removed by
cutting back from the broken PVC pipe and cutting the remaining pipe where it enters
the junction. A new junction can be replaced with the coupler inlapping the new
junction and overlapping the pipe.
