Ipex 36066 Pvc Schedule 80 Socket Cap 4 Inches

Product Description

The IPEX 36066 is a 4-inch PVC Schedule 80 socket cap designed for industrial and commercial piping systems. This fitting seals the end of a pipe run and is manufactured to Schedule 80 dimensional and pressure standards, making it suitable for higher-pressure applications where Schedule 40 fittings are insufficient. PVC construction provides long-term resistance to a wide range of corrosive media, including acids, alcohols, alkalis, salt solutions, and halogens. The fitting is engineered to IPEX dimensional standards as part of the Xirtec PVC system, a complete pipe, valves, and fittings platform produced under a single manufacturer's quality control program.

This socket cap is intended for use in chemical processing, industrial fluid handling, and other applications that demand durable, corrosion-resistant piping components. It is suited for both residential and commercial installations where PVC piping is permitted by code. The Xirtec PVC system is engineered for environments where metal piping is vulnerable to corrosion or where low-maintenance operation is a priority. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on process piping, chemical transfer lines, and industrial drainage systems are the primary installers of this fitting.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 PVC construction rated for higher-pressure service than Schedule 40
• Maximum service temperature of 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) under pressure
• Rated to 180 degrees F (82 degrees C) for intermittent gravity flow applications
• Resistant to rust, pitting, scaling, and corrosion
• Compatible with acids, alcohols, alkalis, salt solutions, and halogens
• Maintenance-free service life with no requirement for painting or coating

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style fitting within the IPEX Xirtec PVC Schedule 80 pipe, valves, and fittings system. Fits standard 4-inch Schedule 80 PVC socket-end pipe configurations.

Installation Notes

This fitting is installed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters using standard PVC solvent cement procedures. Shut off system flow and depressurize the line before cutting and joining. Follow applicable codes such as ASTM D2467 for Schedule 80 PVC socket fittings and local plumbing or process piping codes. Do not apply heat or use incompatible solvents, as these can compromise the integrity of PVC fittings.
