This tee connects a 1-inch run with a 1\/2-inch branch outlet using solvent-cement socket connections, providing a secure, leak-resistant joint in both pressure and gravity-flow applications. Rated for a maximum service temperature of 140 degrees F in pressure service and 180 degrees F during intermittent gravity flow, it suits a broad range of process piping environments. Plumbers and pipefitters working in chemical processing, water treatment, and industrial facilities install this fitting as part of complete PVC Schedule 80 piping assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is suited for residential, commercial, and industrial piping systems handling potable water, acids, alcohols, alkalis, salt solutions, and halogens. Its Schedule 80 wall thickness provides added pressure capacity compared to Schedule 40, making it appropriate for demanding process applications. It is listed with the National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) and CSA International for use with potable water, broadening its range of acceptable service environments. It fits into the IPEX Xirtec PVC system, which is engineered to function as a complete Pipe, Valves, and Fittings package produced to consistent dimensional and performance standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 80 PVC construction provides higher pressure ratings than Schedule 40 for demanding service conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum service temperature of 140 degrees F in pressure service and 180 degrees F for intermittent gravity flow\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSmooth interior bore resists rust, pitting, scaling, and corrosion throughout service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eChemical resistance to most acids, alcohols, alkalis, salt solutions, and halogens\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNSF and CSA International listed for use with potable water\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePart of the IPEX Xirtec PVC system, manufactured to consistent dimensional and quality standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use within the IPEX Xirtec PVC Schedule 80 piping system as a reducing socket tee fitting, compatible with 1-inch run pipe and 1\/2-inch branch pipe joined by solvent-cement socket connections per ASTM standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLicensed plumbers and pipefitters install Schedule 80 PVC socket fittings using approved PVC solvent cement and primer per the fitting manufacturer and applicable plumbing code requirements, including IPC and IFGC provisions where relevant. Depressurize and drain the system completely before cutting into any existing line. Do not use petroleum-based lubricants or solvents not rated for PVC, as they can degrade the fitting material. Allow full cure time for the solvent-cement joint before restoring system pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: PVC Schedule 80\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Socket (solvent cement)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cstrong\u003eRun Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBranch Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\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 (Gravity Flow, Intermittent)\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\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: 36788\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"IPEX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51267900342578,"sku":"36788","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/308913609.jpg?v=1780693833","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/ipex-36788-pvc-schedule-80-reducing-socket-tee-1x1-2-inch","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
