Ipex 36575 Pvc Schedule 80 Male Plug 2 Inches

Product Description

The IPEX 36575 is a 2-inch PVC Schedule 80 male plug designed to cap or terminate threaded pipe ends in industrial and commercial piping systems. Built to Schedule 80 dimensional standards, it delivers greater wall thickness and pressure-handling capability than Schedule 40 fittings. This plug is manufactured from rigid PVC, offering strong resistance to corrosion, oxidation, and a broad range of aggressive chemicals. It is a standard component in chemical process piping, water treatment, and other industrial fluid-handling installations where long-term, low-maintenance service is a priority. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting as part of a complete pipe, valves, and fittings system.

This male plug is suited for use in residential, commercial, and industrial piping applications where a reliable, maintenance-free threaded end cap is required. It performs in chemical process lines handling acids, alcohols, alkalis, salt solutions, and halogens. The fitting integrates with Schedule 80 PVC piping systems and is appropriate for both pressure and gravity-flow configurations within its rated temperature range. Systems requiring immunity to rust, pitting, and scaling benefit from this fitting as a direct replacement for metal alternatives.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 wall thickness for higher pressure ratings compared to Schedule 40
• Maximum service temperature of 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) under pressure
• Rated for intermittent gravity flow up to 180 degrees F (82 degrees C)
• Resistant to rust, pitting, scaling, and corrosion
• Compatible with a wide range of chemicals including most acids, alcohols, alkalis, salt solutions, and halogens
• Maintenance-free service life with no oxidation concerns

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard component for 2-inch Schedule 80 PVC threaded piping systems used in chemical process and industrial fluid-handling applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter following applicable IPC and local plumbing code requirements. Depressurize and drain the piping system fully before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant rated for PVC and the specific chemical service. Do not overtighten threaded PVC fittings, as excess torque can crack the fitting body.
