Ipex 36773 Pvc Schedule 80 Socket Tee 1-1/4 in

Product Description

The IPEX 36773 is a 1-1/4 inch PVC Schedule 80 socket tee fitting designed for industrial and commercial piping systems where chemical resistance and pressure performance are required. Manufactured to Schedule 80 dimensional and pressure standards, this fitting handles a maximum service temperature of 140 degrees F under pressure and up to 180 degrees F for intermittent gravity flow. The smooth interior bore resists rust, scale, pitting, and corrosion across a wide range of chemical services. Plumbers and pipefitters working in chemical process, industrial, or high-purity water applications install this fitting as part of a complete PVC pressure piping system.

This socket tee is suited for residential, commercial, and industrial piping installations where corrosion resistance and long service life are priorities. It performs well in systems handling most acids, alcohols, alkalis, salt solutions, and halogens. It is also listed with the National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) and CSA International for use with potable water, making it appropriate for water treatment and distribution applications in addition to chemical process lines.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 PVC construction for higher pressure ratings compared to Schedule 40
• Maximum service temperature of 140 degrees F under pressure; 180 degrees F for intermittent gravity flow
• Smooth interior bore resists rust, scale, pitting, and corrosion
• Resistant to most acids, alcohols, alkalis, salt solutions, and halogens
• Listed with NSF and CSA International for potable water service
• Socket (slip) end connections for solvent-cement joining

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style Schedule 80 PVC socket fitting for use in pressure piping and gravity flow systems requiring 1-1/4 inch tee connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable plumbing codes, including the IPC and local jurisdictional requirements. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before cutting into any existing line. Socket connections require proper PVC primer and solvent cement rated for Schedule 80 fittings; allow full cure time before restoring pressure. Do not exceed the temperature and pressure ratings for the fitting grade and service conditions.
