Georg Fischer 835-012 Pvc Adapter 1-1/4 in Fpt X Slip

Product Description

The GEORG FISCHER 835-012 is a PVC adapter fitting designed to transition between a 1-1/4 inch female pipe thread (FPT) connection and a 1-1/4 inch slip socket connection. This fitting allows threaded pipe or fittings to connect into a solvent-weld piping system without the need for additional transition hardware. Constructed from PVC, it is suited for use in low-pressure water, irrigation, chemical, and pool or spa plumbing systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of adapter where a threaded inlet meets a solvent-cement line, making it a common component in both new construction and retrofit applications.

This adapter is used in residential and light commercial plumbing systems, pool and spa circulation piping, irrigation distribution networks, and industrial process lines where PVC is the specified material. The slip socket end accepts standard Schedule 40 or Schedule 80 PVC pipe for solvent cementing, while the female pipe thread end receives any standard NPT-threaded male fitting or valve. It is appropriate for above-ground and below-grade installations where the piping system is rated for PVC service conditions.

Key Features

• 1-1/4 inch FPT inlet for connection to standard NPT-threaded male fittings or valves
• 1-1/4 inch slip socket outlet for solvent-cement connection to PVC pipe
• PVC construction for corrosion resistance in water, irrigation, and chemical service
• Compact adapter profile reduces the need for additional transition fittings
• Compatible with standard solvent-cement joining methods per industry practice

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style PVC adapter for use in residential and commercial plumbing, pool, spa, and irrigation systems requiring a transition from a 1-1/4 inch female pipe thread connection to a 1-1/4 inch slip socket solvent-weld joint.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter. Shut off and depressurize the water system before beginning work. The slip socket end requires proper PVC primer and solvent cement applied per the cement manufacturer instructions and applicable plumbing code, such as the IPC or local adopted standards. Do not over-tighten the threaded connection, as PVC threads can crack under excessive torque; use PTFE thread tape or approved thread sealant on the NPT threads.
