It joins threaded PVC pipe runs and allows for easy disconnection without cutting pipe, making it a reliable service fitting in pressurized water and chemical systems. The union seals with a rubber O-ring for a leak-resistant joint and is rated at 150 psi at 73 degrees F. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in both residential and light commercial applications where PVC is the specified material. It complies with ANSI B2.1 thread standards, confirming dimensional compatibility with standard NPT fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis union is suited for use in water distribution, irrigation, pool and spa plumbing, and industrial piping systems where PVC is permitted. Its Schedule 80 construction provides greater wall thickness and pressure tolerance than Schedule 40, but it is designed to work with either Schedule 80 or Schedule 40 PVC pipe, giving installers flexibility when working in mixed-schedule systems. Typical applications include pump isolation, filter connections, and any run where future serviceability is required without cutting out the fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated at 150 psi at 73 degrees F for reliable performance in pressurized systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHeavy-duty Schedule 80 gray PVC construction with thicker walls than Schedule 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRubber O-ring seal provides a leak-resistant, reusable joint\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with both Schedule 80 and Schedule 40 PVC pipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThreaded (NPT) ends comply with ANSI B2.1 for dimensional consistency\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAllows pipe disconnection without cutting, simplifying maintenance and equipment swaps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 1\/2 inch Schedule 80 or Schedule 40 PVC threaded pipe.

Shut off system pressure and drain the line before removing or installing union fittings. Apply PTFE thread tape or an appropriate thread sealant to NPT threads before assembly and hand-tighten followed by wrench tightening — avoid overtightening PVC threads, as this can crack the fitting body. Verify that the O-ring is properly seated in the union nut before final assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Gray PVC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: Schedule 80\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 150 psi at 73 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: Threaded (NPT)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeal Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Rubber O-ring\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI B2.1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 36 each\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.99 pounds\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: HOMEWERKS WORLDWIDE LLC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 512-44-12-12B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HOMEWERKS WORLDWIDE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51525495226674,"sku":"512-44-12-12B","price":104.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/5bc192d7c85175749f3c3ab93a4aba16_4f43237c-01e5-459f-88f4-83bed099950e.jpg?v=1785475573","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/homewerks-512-44-12-12b-1-2-in-pvc-threaded-union-sch-80","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
