Schedule 80 PVC offers thicker wall construction than Schedule 40, giving it higher pressure ratings and greater durability in demanding piping applications. This fitting is used to transition from a threaded pipe or fitting end into a solvent-welded socket connection within a PVC piping system. Plumbers and pipefitters install this adapter where a threaded male end must integrate into a slip-fit PVC line without reducing flow path or compromising system integrity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis adapter is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing systems where Schedule 80 PVC pipe and fittings are specified. Typical applications include chemical handling lines, irrigation systems, pool and spa plumbing, and industrial process piping where corrosion resistance and moderate pressure capability are required. The slip socket end accepts standard 3\/8-inch PVC pipe for solvent cement joining, while the MPT end threads onto any compatible male-threaded fitting or valve body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 80 PVC construction provides thicker walls and higher pressure capacity than Schedule 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-inch MPT inlet connects to standard male-threaded fittings, valves, or equipment ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-inch female slip socket outlet accepts solvent-cement bonding to standard PVC pipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePVC material resists corrosion, scale buildup, and many common chemicals\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact profile at 1.6 inches in length keeps installation footprint minimal in tight spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for Schedule 80 PVC piping systems using 3\/8-inch male pipe thread and 3\/8-inch slip socket connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified pipefitters. Shut off system pressure and drain the line before making any connections. The MPT end should be wrapped with PTFE thread tape or pipe thread sealant before threading to ensure a leak-free joint; do not overtighten, as PVC threads can crack under excessive torque. The slip socket end requires a compatible PVC solvent cement applied per the cement manufacturer's instructions and all applicable plumbing codes, including IPC provisions for solvent-welded joints. Allow full cure time 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\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Schedule 80\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection 1 Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection 1 Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: MPT (Male Pipe Thread)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection 2 Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection 2 Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Female Socket (Slip)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.1 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.05 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.035 pounds\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: MIDLAND INDUSTRIES\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 836003\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MIDLAND INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67948874072370,"sku":"836003","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/bf1ab8550a0369e6455e3ca39867bda7_ebfcf613-d974-4791-bde5-5b1e7ac0c770.jpg?v=1791675476","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/midland-industries-836003-sch-80-pvc-adapter-3-8-mpt-x-3-8-socket","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
