836 Series PVC Pipe Fitting Adapter, Schedule 80, 1-1/4 Socket x NPT Male

The Spears 836 series schedule 80 PVC adapter features a socket opening on one end and male NPT threads on the other, designed for connecting pipes or fittings with different end types. The socket end is specifically engineered for enhanced flow, connecting to pipes with a smooth bore, while the National Pipe Taper (NPT) threads create a tighter seal compared to straight threads. Constructed of gray PVC (polyvinyl chloride), this adapter offers chemical and corrosion resistance, high strength, and is lighter than metal fittings.

Compatible with schedule 80 (thick wall) PVC pipes and fittings, this adapter is ideal for a variety of applications including chemical processing, industrial plating, chilled water distribution, deionized water lines, and chemical drainage and wastewater treatment systems. Transition fittings allow for connection to other materials such as steel, copper, or cast iron. With a maximum operating temperature of 140 degrees F, it meets ASTM International D1784 and D2467 standards, and is NSF certified for potable water service. This schedule 80 PVC adapter is perfect for connecting pipes used in conveying drinking water, waste water, chemicals, and other liquids across a range of industries.

Pipe fittings are vital components used for connecting, terminating, controlling flow, and changing the direction of piping across various industries. When selecting pipe fittings, it is important to consider the application, as this will impact the material type, shape, size, and required durability. Fittings come in threaded or unthreaded options, with various shapes, styles, sizes, and schedules (pipe wall thickness).
