Dura Plastic PVC80UFIPFIP112 Schedule 80 Union 1-1/2 in

Product Description

The DURA PLASTIC PVC80UFIPFIP112 is a Schedule 80 PVC union fitting with female iron pipe (FIP) threaded connections on both ends in a 1-1/2 inch size. This three-piece union allows technicians to disconnect and reconnect piping runs without cutting pipe or disturbing adjacent fittings. The Schedule 80 wall thickness provides greater pressure capacity than standard Schedule 40 fittings, making this union appropriate for higher-demand pressure piping applications. Licensed plumbers, pool and spa service technicians, and irrigation contractors install this fitting in systems where future serviceability of inline equipment is required.

This union fitting is suited for residential and light commercial PVC pressure piping systems including pool and spa circulation lines, irrigation mains, chemical feed lines, and general water service applications where a removable connection point is needed. The FIP x FIP thread pattern accepts male-threaded pipe or adapters on both sides of the union. Schedule 80 PVC is rated for use with a range of non-solvent and non-aromatic fluid services.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 PVC construction for higher pressure ratings versus Schedule 40
• 1-1/2 inch FIP x FIP threaded connections on both union halves
• Three-piece union design allows in-line disconnection without cutting pipe
• Compatible with standard NPT male-threaded fittings and pipe nipples
• Chemical resistance suitable for pool, spa, and irrigation fluid service

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation union for 1-1/2 inch Schedule 80 PVC pressure piping systems using NPT-threaded connections.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or qualified trade technician. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before disassembling or installing the union. Apply an appropriate thread sealant rated for PVC and the service fluid to all male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten threaded PVC connections; hand-tight plus one to two turns with strap wrench is generally sufficient to avoid cracking the fitting body.
