Homewerks Worldwide Llc 512-14-1-1B 1 in Pvc Slip Union

Product Description

The HOMEWERKS WORLDWIDE LLC 512-14-1-1B is a 1-inch gray PVC solvent weld slip union designed for pressurized water and fluid piping systems. Built to heavy-duty Schedule 80 standards, this union features rubber O-rings for a reliable, leak-resistant seal and is pressure-rated at 150 psi at 73 degrees F. Its slip-style socket ends accept standard solvent cement for a permanent, bonded connection. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in both residential and light commercial applications wherever a union joint is needed for future serviceability.

This slip union is suited for cold and ambient-temperature water supply lines, irrigation systems, pool and spa plumbing, and general fluid handling installations. The gray PVC body and Schedule 80 wall thickness provide added strength over standard Schedule 40 fittings, making it a preferred choice in mechanical rooms and exposed-pipe runs where durability matters. It is compatible with both Schedule 80 and Schedule 40 PVC pipe, giving installers flexibility when working with mixed-schedule systems.
