PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride) is a semi-crystalline thermoplastic rated for aggressive chemical service, making this union a go-to choice where standard PVC or CPVC would be unsuitable. The female iron pipe thread (FIPT) connections on both ends allow the union to mate with standard threaded plastic or compatible metal pipe. Licensed plumbers and industrial pipefitters install this type of fitting when systems need to be periodically broken apart for maintenance or equipment removal without cutting pipe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis union is suited for industrial process piping, chemical transfer lines, water treatment systems, and high-purity fluid handling applications where PVDF is specified. Schedule 80 wall thickness provides additional pressure capability compared to Schedule 40 fittings, making it appropriate for systems that operate at elevated pressures or where mechanical strength is a priority. It is sold individually.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePVDF construction offers broad chemical resistance and handles demanding fluid service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSchedule 80 rated for higher pressure applications than standard Schedule 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFIPT x FIPT end connections on both sides for threaded installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnion design allows in-line disassembly without cutting or disturbing adjacent pipe runs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1-1\/2 inch fitting size for common industrial and commercial pipe sizing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 1-1\/2 inch Schedule 80 PVDF threaded piping systems with FIPT end connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter familiar with plastic threaded fittings. Use PTFE thread tape or a sealant rated for PVDF and the specific media being conveyed — do not use petroleum-based pipe dopes that can attack thermoplastics. Depressurize and drain the system completely before disassembling or installing the union. Hand-tighten first, then apply only moderate wrench torque, as overtightening PVDF threaded fittings can cause cracking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Threaded Union\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: PVDF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: FIPT x FIPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: 80\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 pound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: NIBCO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: CE04400\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NIBCO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542277423410,"sku":"CE04400","price":688.09,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f64504a02d53c24fc8cbbc6c5d600646_3d992f73-1929-4a6a-8922-cb6cb5ee4ce1.jpg?v=1785897126","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/nibco-ce04400-pvdf-threaded-union-1-1-2-in-sch-80","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
