Manufactured from rigid PVC, this coupling connects two same-diameter pipe runs using solvent-cement socket joints. Schedule 80 wall thickness provides greater pressure capacity compared to Schedule 40, making it appropriate for chemical processing lines, industrial fluid handling, and other demanding service environments. Plumbers and pipefitters working in industrial facilities are the primary installers. The smooth interior bore resists rust, scale, pitting, and corrosion throughout its service life, reducing friction loss and maintenance intervals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis coupling is suited for use in chemical process piping, industrial water lines, and potable water distribution systems. Its PVC construction offers strong resistance to a wide range of acids, alcohols, salts, and halogens, making it a practical choice for chemical feed lines and treatment plant applications. It is also appropriate for general-purpose industrial plumbing where a low-maintenance, corrosion-free alternative to metal pipe fittings is needed. Residential and light commercial potable water installations are also within scope where Schedule 80 fittings are specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSchedule 80 PVC construction provides higher pressure ratings than Schedule 40 for the same nominal pipe size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSocket x socket end configuration accepts solvent-cement joints on both ends\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmooth interior walls resist rust, scale, pitting, and corrosion for long service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eResistant to photodegradation and creep stress under sustained load\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eListed for potable water service with NSF and CSA International\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufactured with approximately half the energy required to produce equivalent steel or steel alloy fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 1\/2 inch PVC Schedule 80 piping systems using solvent-cement socket connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter in accordance with applicable plumbing codes such as the IPC or IAPMO standards. Shut off and depressurize the affected piping segment completely before cutting or joining. Use only PVC-rated primer and solvent cement appropriate for Schedule 80 fittings, and allow full cure time before restoring pressure. Do not apply open flame or excessive mechanical force to PVC fittings during installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: Schedule 80\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: Socket x Socket (Solvent Cement)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertifications\u003c\/strong\u003e: NSF Listed for Potable Water, CSA International\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: IPEX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 36090\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"IPEX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51267927277874,"sku":"36090","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/308913533.jpg?v=1780694660","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/ipex-36090-pvc-sch-80-socket-coupling-1-2-inch","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
