	They have added a LOT of items since I worked there! Been trying to visit their new location but don't get off in time to visit before they leave. If anyone should know, ISCO and their technical team should be able to make anything work. Sorry, not trying to pitch for them. __________________ I have found that honor lies in doing the right thing even if no one is watching.

	The coupler will be mechanical, as the two plastics cannot be readily welded together. __________________ "Did you get my e-mail?" - "The biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place" - George Bernard Shaw, 1856

	Stepped couplings are quite usual way to do it. E.g. http://www.teekaycouplings.com/

	Almost any company that sells mechanical joint fittings will have what you want. The earlier posts gave you a good place tio start. Others are One-bolt, Mueller, Clow, Tyler-Union, American (AFC), Russell-Sigma, Griffin, Star, SIP Industries, and EBAA. Some of these may not make what you are looking for, but this should get you what you are looking for. __________________ You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today - Abraham Lincoln

	you can procure standard flanges with identical bolt circle diameter for pvc and hdpe pipes and bolt them up using bolts of recommended size.
