Macomb Group Approved 400727 Hdpe Sdr 11 Series 815 Fitting

Product Description

The MACOMB GROUP APPROVED 400727 is a 6-inch IPS HDPE transition fitting built to ASTM D2513 standards. It connects high-density polyethylene pipe to steel pipe, providing a reliable mechanical transition in gas distribution and fluid conveyance systems. The fitting is manufactured to SDR 11 dimensional ratios and carries a 24-inch steel transition segment as part of the Series 815 configuration. Licensed plumbers and gas utility technicians are the primary installers of this component in both new construction and rehabilitation pipeline work.

This fitting is used in underground gas distribution mains and service lines where a transition from HDPE to steel is required at curb boxes, meter sets, or service risers. The Series 815 design with ASTM D2513 rating makes it suitable for natural gas and LP gas piping applications. It is rated for use with HDPE pipe meeting D2513 requirements. The 6-inch IPS sizing addresses larger-diameter mains commonly found in commercial and industrial gas distribution infrastructure.

Compatibility

Designed for use with 6-inch IPS HDPE pipe meeting ASTM D2513 requirements in Series 815 gas distribution transition applications.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified gas utility technician in accordance with IFGC and applicable local codes. Shut off and depressurize the gas line completely before beginning any connection work. Fusion or mechanical joining of HDPE components must follow the pipe and fitting manufacturer procedures; do not use open flame or unapproved heat sources near HDPE materials. The steel transition end should be inspected for coating integrity and properly cathodically protected where buried.
