Spears 460 Series PVC Pipe Fitting Adapter - 4Barbed x 4 Spigot

. This white Spears adapter pipe fitting is constructed of schedule 40 PVC and features a barbed insert end connection, as well as a spigot end connection. Designed to connect pipes or fittings with varying end types, diameters, or materials, this adapter fitting boasts a barbed male insert connection on one end for quick attachment to a flexible tube, and a male spigot connection on the other end for secure fitting into a female unthreaded pipe.

It is compatible with schedule 40 PVC pipes and fittings, and can be used with transition fittings to connect to materials such as steel, copper, or cast iron. With a smooth interior finish, this fitting provides superior flow compared to metal, reducing friction and inhibiting material buildup.
