Ipex 9836040 Cpvc Sch 80 Male Adapter 4 in Slip X Mpt

Product Description

The IPEX 9836040 is a 4-inch Schedule 80 CPVC male adapter designed for high-pressure plumbing, industrial, and pool/spa piping systems. It features a slip socket on one end and a male threaded (MPT) connection on the other, allowing a smooth transition from solvent-weld pipe to threaded fittings. Manufactured from Type IV, Grade 1 CPVC material via injection molding, this adapter meets ASTM D1784, ASTM F437, and ASTM F439 standards. It carries NSF 14/61 certification, confirming suitability for potable water service. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on Schedule 80 chlorinated PVC systems will find this a direct, code-compliant fitting for a wide range of service environments.

This adapter is suited for residential, commercial, and industrial piping applications where Schedule 80 CPVC is specified. Typical use cases include potable water distribution, irrigation mains, pool and spa plumbing, and industrial process lines where elevated pressure ratings and chemical resistance are required. The slip-by-male-thread configuration is commonly used when connecting CPVC pipe runs to threaded valves, pumps, manifolds, or equipment flanges. It is compatible with standard Schedule 80 CPVC pipe and fittings in the 4-inch size class.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 wall thickness for elevated pressure service
• Slip socket x male NPT threaded end connection (Slip x MPT)
• Type IV, Grade 1 CPVC material for chemical and temperature resistance
• Injection-molded construction to ASTM D1784, F437, and F439 specifications
• NSF 14/61 certified for potable water applications
• Pressure rated for use in irrigation, plumbing, industrial, and pool/spa systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style fitting for use with Schedule 80 CPVC piping systems in 4-inch diameter configurations across plumbing, irrigation, industrial, and pool/spa applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and ASTM guidelines for CPVC solvent cementing. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before cutting into any existing line. Use a CPVC-compatible primer and solvent cement on the slip end; apply thread sealant rated for plastic fittings on the male NPT end. Do not overtighten threaded connections, as CPVC threads can crack under excessive torque.
