Pro-source 90341000709 Cpvc Male Adapter 3 in Sch 80

Product Description

The PRO-SOURCE 90341000709 is a Schedule 80 CPVC male adapter designed to transition between threaded and slip-fit piping connections in industrial and commercial plumbing systems. At 3 inches in size, this fitting features a male iron pipe thread (MIPT) on one end and a solvent-weld slip socket on the other, allowing a threaded pipe or fitting to connect into a solvent-welded CPVC line. Schedule 80 wall thickness provides greater pressure tolerance and mechanical strength compared to Schedule 40, making this adapter well suited for demanding fluid handling applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this type of fitting.

This adapter is used in residential and commercial hot and cold water distribution, chemical processing lines, and industrial fluid systems where CPVC piping is specified. The MIPT x Slip configuration is a standard transition point when connecting valves, pumps, or threaded equipment into a CPVC solvent-weld system. Its corrosion resistance and elevated temperature tolerance make CPVC Schedule 80 fittings a common choice in systems carrying hot water or mildly corrosive fluids.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 CPVC construction for higher pressure ratings and thicker walls than Schedule 40
• MIPT x Slip end connections for threading into male-threaded ports and solvent welding into CPVC pipe
• 3-inch fitting size suitable for larger-diameter piping runs
• CPVC material offers corrosion resistance and elevated temperature performance
• Weighs 1.2 pounds — solid, full-size fitting appropriate for permanent installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 3-inch Schedule 80 CPVC piping systems using standard MIPT x Slip connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable IPC or local plumbing codes. Shut off system pressure and drain the line completely before removing any existing fittings or making new connections. The slip end requires proper CPVC solvent cement and primer — do not substitute PVC cement, as it is not rated for CPVC. Allow full cure time per the cement manufacturer's instructions before restoring system pressure.
