Dura Plastic PVC40U112 Pvc Sch 40 Union 1-1/2 in Slip

Product Description

The DURA PLASTIC PVC40U112 is a Schedule 40 PVC union fitting designed for 1-1/2 inch slip-by-slip-by-slip connections in pressurized piping systems. Union fittings allow a section of pipe or equipment to be disconnected without cutting the line, making them a practical choice anywhere future service access is required. This fitting is manufactured from rigid PVC, which resists corrosion, scale buildup, and a wide range of chemicals. Plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting in both new construction and retrofit applications where a removable, pressure-rated joint is needed in a Schedule 40 PVC system.

This union fitting is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, irrigation, and pool or spa piping where PVC Schedule 40 pressure systems are standard. The slip connection style accepts solvent-welded pipe ends on all three ports, providing a clean, leak-resistant joint. It is commonly installed at pump inlets and outlets, filter connections, and other service points where component removal is routine. All three connection points use the same 1-1/2 inch slip socket size for straightforward installation in a single-size run.

Key Features

• Schedule 40 PVC construction provides corrosion resistance and durability in pressurized water systems
• Three-port slip configuration accepts solvent-weld connections on all ports
• Union design allows pipe or equipment disconnection without cutting the line
• 1-1/2 inch nominal size fits standard Schedule 40 PVC pipe of the same diameter
• Suitable for pool, spa, irrigation, and general plumbing pressure applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation union fitting for 1-1/2 inch Schedule 40 PVC pressure piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and ASTM standards for PVC solvent-welded systems. Depressurize and drain the line completely before disassembly or installation. Use only PVC-rated primer and solvent cement appropriate for Schedule 40 pressure fittings, and allow full cure time before returning the system to service. Do not over-tighten the union nut, as PVC threads can crack under excessive torque.
