Charlotte Pipe PVC04025B0800 Sch 40 Pvc Pipe 2.5 in

Product Description

The Charlotte Pipe Foundry PVC04025B0800 is a Schedule 40 solid-wall PVC pipe rated for both pressure and drain-waste-vent (DWV) applications. It measures 2.5 inches in nominal diameter and comes in a 20-foot length with a bell end for solvent-weld socket connections. The pipe carries a pressure rating of 280 psi and meets multiple ASTM and NSF standards, making it suitable for potable water systems as well as drainage and venting installations. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers for this product in both residential and light commercial settings.

This pipe is used in cold and hot water supply lines, drain and waste systems, and well casing applications where Schedule 40 PVC is code-approved. The bell end simplifies field joining with standard PVC solvent cement. Its solid-wall construction handles the pressure demands of municipal water service connections, irrigation mains, and underground supply runs. The 20-foot stick length reduces the number of joints in long straight runs, which helps maintain system integrity and reduces labor time on commercial rough-in work.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and new-installation pipe for Schedule 40 PVC plumbing systems requiring 2.5-inch nominal diameter in pressure, DWV, or well casing service per ASTM D-1785, ASTM D-2665, and ASTM F-480 specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and applicable local amendments. Shut off and depressurize the water supply before cutting into any live line. Use a deburring tool to clean cut ends before applying primer and solvent cement per ASTM D-2564 procedures. Do not apply solvent cement in poorly ventilated spaces and allow adequate cure time before pressurizing the system.
