Ipex 36059 Pvc Schedule 80 Socket Cap 3/4 Inch

Product Description

The IPEX 36059 is a 3/4-inch PVC Schedule 80 socket cap designed for use in industrial and commercial piping systems. This fitting terminates pipe runs cleanly and handles the elevated pressure demands that Schedule 80 wall thickness provides over standard Schedule 40. It is part of the IPEX Xirtec PVC system, a single-manufacturer pipe, valves, and fittings platform engineered to consistent dimensional and performance standards. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this cap in chemical processing lines, industrial fluid handling systems, and other applications where corrosion resistance and long service life are priorities.

This cap fits 3/4-inch PVC Schedule 80 pipe via a socket connection and is suited for systems carrying acids, alcohols, alkalis, salt solutions, and halogens. The Xirtec PVC system is designed for applications where metal piping would corrode or require frequent maintenance. Typical installations include chemical process lines, water treatment facilities, industrial plant plumbing, and similar environments where the fluid handled would degrade metal fittings over time.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 PVC construction provides greater pressure capacity than Schedule 40 at the same pipe size
• Maximum service temperature of 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) under pressure; up to 180 degrees F (82 degrees C) for intermittent gravity flow
• Resistant to rust, pitting, scaling, and corrosion — no surface treatment or coating required
• Compatible with a wide range of aggressive chemicals including most acids, alcohols, alkalis, salt solutions, and halogens
• Maintenance-free service life with no susceptibility to oxidation or photodegradation
• Single-manufacturer system ensures consistent dimensional standards across pipe, valves, and fittings

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style component within the IPEX Xirtec PVC Schedule 80 piping system for use with 3/4-inch PVC Schedule 80 pipe in industrial and chemical process applications.

Installation Notes

This fitting is installed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters working on industrial PVC piping systems. Shut down and depressurize the affected piping circuit before solvent-cementing any socket fitting. Use a PVC primer and Schedule 80-rated solvent cement rated for the service temperature and chemical environment of the application, following applicable codes such as the IPC or IFGC. Do not apply heat or use threaded tools on socket-style PVC fittings.
