Charlotte Pipe Foundry Pvc 08402 2000HA SCH80 2in Tee

Product Description

The Charlotte Pipe Foundry Co. PVC 08402 2000HA is a 2-inch Schedule 80 PVC tee fitting designed for high-pressure piping systems where standard Schedule 40 fittings are not rated for the application. All three ports are female pipe thread (FPT), allowing direct connection to male-threaded pipe or fittings without solvent cementing. Schedule 80 PVC wall thickness provides greater pressure and impact resistance than Schedule 40, making this tee suited for industrial, commercial, and demanding residential plumbing applications. It is typically installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on chemical lines, irrigation systems, or pressurized water distribution.

This fitting is used in Schedule 80 PVC piping systems that require threaded connections at branch or tee points. The all-FPT configuration supports tool-installed threaded assembly, which is common in applications where disassembly or inspection access is anticipated. Gray color is standard for Schedule 80 PVC and helps distinguish it from white Schedule 40 fittings in the field. This tee ships in packages of 10 units, making it practical for contractors stocking multiple fittings per job. The universal cross-reference part number is 805-020.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an approved thread sealant tape or compound to male threads before engaging the fitting — do not overtighten, as PVC threads can crack under excessive torque. Inspect threads on both the fitting and mating pipe for damage before assembly.
