Homewerks Worldwide Llc 511-44-12-12B Pvc Threaded Union

Product Description

The HOMEWERKS WORLDWIDE LLC 511-44-12-12B is a Schedule 40 PVC threaded union designed to join lengths of pipe in cold water plumbing systems. Rated at 150 psi at 73 degrees F, this fitting uses female pipe thread (FPT) connections on both ends and is compatible with solvent weld installation methods. It meets ANSI B2.1 and ASTM D2466 standards, making it suitable for residential and light commercial cold water piping applications. Licensed plumbers and qualified pipefitters typically install this fitting where a removable connection point is needed in a PVC run. This listing includes a package of 12 unions.

This union is used in residential and commercial cold water supply systems where PVC Schedule 40 pipe is the specified material. The threaded FPT x FPT configuration allows the fitting to thread onto male-threaded pipe ends or adapters. It is a common choice when the installer needs the ability to disconnect and reconnect a section of pipe without cutting. Typical applications include utility rooms, mechanical rooms, irrigation systems, and general cold water distribution where PVC is code-approved.
