PVC Bulkhead Tank Adapter 3/4 Socket x NPT Female

The Spears schedule 80 PVC bulkhead tank adapter is designed with female NPT threads on one end and a socket opening on the other, making it suitable for adapting drums or tanks for drainage, filling, or distribution applications. This tank adapter fitting, made of gray PVC, provides high strength and resistance to chemicals and corrosion. It also features a neoprene gasket for resistance to weathering, oil, and heat.

In addition to its durable construction, the National Pipe Taper (NPT) threads create a tighter seal than straight threads, and the socket end connects to pipes with a smooth bore for enhanced flow. The adapter is compatible with schedule 80 (thick wall) PVC pipes and fittings, making it suitable for a variety of applications including chemical processing, industrial plating, chilled water distribution, deionized water lines, and chemical drainage and wastewater treatment systems.

With a maximum operating temperature of 140 degrees F and a maximum pressure rating of 150 pounds per square inch (psi) at 73 degrees F, this tank adapter meets ASTM International D1784 and D2467 standards for quality assurance. It is also certified by National Sanitation Foundation International (NSF) for potable water service, making it suitable for connecting pipes for conveying drinking water, waste water, chemicals, and other liquids in a range of industries.

When purchasing pipe fittings, it is important to consider the application, material type, shape, size, and required durability, as these factors will affect the performance of the fittings.
