This fitting transitions from a 3\/4-inch run to a 1\/2-inch branch using solvent-cement socket connections. Rated for service up to 140 degrees F under pressure and up to 180 degrees F for intermittent gravity flow, it holds up in demanding process environments. The interior bore remains smooth across virtually all service conditions, eliminating rust, pitting, scale, and corrosion concerns that come with metal fittings. Licensed plumbers and industrial piping contractors install this fitting in chemical process lines, water treatment systems, and other fluid-handling applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is suited for use in residential, commercial, and light industrial piping systems carrying potable water, acids, alcohols, alkalis, salt solutions, and halogens. It is listed with the National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) and CSA International for use with potable water, making it appropriate for both process and water supply applications. The Schedule 80 wall thickness provides added pressure capacity compared to Schedule 40, giving installers additional margin in higher-pressure runs. Its corrosion immunity makes it a direct, low-maintenance alternative to metal fittings in corrosive service environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePVC Schedule 80 construction rated to 140 degrees F under pressure and 180 degrees F for intermittent gravity flow\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSmooth interior bore resists rust, scale, pitting, and corrosion in virtually all services\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eResistant to most acids, alcohols, alkalis, salt solutions, and halogens\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNSF and CSA International listed for potable water service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSocket (solvent-cement) end connections on all three ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReducing configuration: 3\/4-inch run x 1\/2-inch branch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a Schedule 80 PVC socket fitting for use within PVC Schedule 80 piping systems, including the IPEX Xirtec PVC system, where solvent-cement connections and chemical-resistant materials are specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation requires solvent cement rated for Schedule 80 PVC fittings; follow ASTM D2564 guidelines for proper primer and cement selection. Shut off system pressure and drain the line before cutting and fitting. Allow full cure time before returning the line to service, especially in pressure applications. This fitting is typically installed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters in compliance with applicable local plumbing codes and ASTM D1785 dimensional standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: Schedule 80\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Socket (solvent cement)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRun Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBranch Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMax Service Temperature (Pressure)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 140 degrees F (60 degrees C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMax Service Temperature (Intermittent Gravity Flow)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 180 degrees F (82 degrees C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertifications\u003c\/strong\u003e: NSF Listed, CSA International Listed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 36786\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"IPEX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51267907453234,"sku":"36786","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/308913516.jpg?v=1780694045","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/ipex-36786-pvc-schedule-80-reducing-socket-tee-3-4x1-2","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
