Couplings are used to attach one piece of pipe to another. These may be the same or different sizes. These couplings are mechanical elements that connect two shafts, transmitting torque constantly from the driving shaft to the driven shaft. Rubber couplings are also used when installing a pump, UV or other device that you may need to quickly disconnect.

Connectors interface or disconnect between equipment and circuits. This in turn enables connection or disconnection between the two desired components, and is in general composed of an insulator, contact and components.

Merits of Using Connectors:

• Simplified wiring
• High density packaging is possible (space within equipment is effectively used)
• Easy maintenance
• Productivity is improved, and delivery shortened
• High cost savings
