Ipex 9836015 Cpvc Sch 80 Socket X Male Adapter 1-1/2 in

Product Description

The IPEX 9836015 is a 1-1/2 inch CPVC Schedule 80 Socket x Male Adapter designed for industrial and commercial piping systems where chemical resistance and long service life are required. Manufactured from Corzan CPVC (chlorinated polyvinyl chloride), this fitting connects a socket-end pipe to a male-threaded fitting or component. Schedule 80 wall thickness provides added pressure capability compared to Schedule 40, making it appropriate for demanding process piping applications. Licensed plumbers and industrial pipefitters install this adapter where a transition from a solvent-welded CPVC line to a threaded connection is needed.

This adapter is suited for chemical processing, industrial fluid handling, and potable water systems where corrosion resistance is critical. Corzan CPVC maintains smooth interior walls over time because it does not rust, pit, scale, or corrode, which helps preserve flow rates throughout the service life of the system. It is listed with the National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) and CSA International for use with potable water, expanding its range of approved applications beyond chemical service alone. It performs reliably in corrosive soil environments when used in underground installations.

Key Features

• CPVC Schedule 80 construction for higher pressure service compared to Schedule 40
• Corzan CPVC material resists most acids, alcohols, alkalies, salt solutions, and halogens
• Immune to electrochemical and galvanic corrosion, including corrosive soil conditions
• NSF and CSA International listed for potable water applications
• Smooth interior walls do not rust, pit, or scale, maintaining consistent flow over time
• Lower thermal conductivity than metal piping, reducing heat loss or gain in temperature-sensitive systems

Compatibility

Designed for use within the IPEX Corzan CPVC Schedule 80 pipe, valves, and fittings system. Intended for 1-1/2 inch CPVC Schedule 80 piping in industrial chemical process and potable water applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes. Solvent-cement the socket end to the CPVC pipe using a CPVC-rated primer and cement only — do not use PVC cement on CPVC fittings. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before cutting into any existing line. Thread connections should be made with PTFE tape or a thread sealant rated for use with CPVC to avoid chemical incompatibility.
