Dura Plastic PVC80ADSMIP112 Schedule 80 Male Adapter

Product Description

The DURA PLASTIC PVC80ADSMIP112 is a Schedule 80 PVC male adapter fitting designed to transition between a socket (slip) connection and a male pipe thread (MPT) connection in pressure piping systems. The fitting accepts a 1-1/2 inch pipe on the socket end and terminates in a 1-1/2 inch male NPT thread on the opposite end. Schedule 80 PVC offers greater wall thickness and higher pressure ratings compared to Schedule 40, making it suitable for demanding industrial, chemical handling, and commercial plumbing installations. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the typical installers of this type of fitting.

This male adapter is used in residential and commercial piping systems where a socket-to-threaded transition is required. Common applications include irrigation manifolds, chemical feed lines, pool and spa plumbing, and industrial process piping. The 1-1/2 inch size fits standard 1-1/2 inch Schedule 80 PVC pipe and pairs with any female NPT-threaded valve, pump port, or fitting of the same nominal size.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 PVC construction for higher pressure and impact resistance versus Schedule 40
• 1-1/2 inch socket (slip) inlet for solvent-welded pipe connection
• 1-1/2 inch male NPT thread outlet for connection to female-threaded fittings, valves, or equipment
• Chemical-resistant PVC material suitable for a wide range of fluid handling applications
• Standard NPT thread form ensures compatibility with common pipe thread connections

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitting for 1-1/2 inch Schedule 80 PVC piping systems using socket and male NPT threaded connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Solvent-cement the socket end using a PVC-compatible primer and cement rated for Schedule 80 applications; allow full cure time before pressurizing the line. Apply thread sealant tape or thread compound to the male NPT threads before connecting to the female-threaded fitting. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before beginning any fitting work.
