It allows piping runs to be broken apart and reconnected without cutting pipe, making it a standard component in pressurized PVC systems. Schedule 80 wall thickness provides greater pressure rating and impact resistance compared to Schedule 40. Plumbers, pipefitters, and industrial maintenance technicians install this fitting in chemical, irrigation, pool, and water distribution systems where solvent-welded joints are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis union is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, pool and spa plumbing, and industrial process piping that uses rigid PVC pressure pipe. The S x S configuration accepts standard 1\/2 inch PVC pipe into both ends for solvent-weld assembly. It is a go-to fitting when a service-removable connection is needed inline without threading or flanging the pipe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 80 PVC construction for higher pressure rating and thicker walls than Schedule 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSocket by socket (S x S) ends accept solvent-cement bonding to standard 1\/2 inch PVC pipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUnion design allows inline disassembly and reassembly without cutting pipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with standard PVC solvent cements and primers per ASTM D2564\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGray Schedule 80 coloring for quick visual identification in mixed-material systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for Schedule 80 PVC pressure piping systems using 1\/2 inch socket connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter in accordance with local plumbing codes and ASTM standards for solvent-welded PVC. Always depressurize and drain the system before disassembling or installing the union. Use the correct Schedule 80 PVC primer and solvent cement for the joint size and application temperature range. Allow full cure time before returning the system to operating pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: PVC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: Schedule 80\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Socket x Socket (S x S)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Union\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: DURA PLASTIC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: PVC80U12\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"DURA PLASTIC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51525512069426,"sku":"80U12","price":18.08,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/be9144e6a412a18a64c8dc7f7d279a2d_b7ed643c-6a13-40f8-914e-f5f9d1e82ba9.jpg?v=1785476083","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/dura-plastic-pvc80u12-pvc-sch-80-union-0-5-in-socket","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
