Pro-source 90380600409 Pvc Pipe Tee 1.5 in Sch 80 Fipt

Product Description

The PRO-SOURCE 90380600409 is a Schedule 80 PVC pipe tee designed for pressure piping systems where durability and chemical resistance are required. Sized at 1-1/2 inches with female iron pipe thread (FIPT) connections on all three ports, this fitting allows a branch takeoff from a straight run of threaded pipe. The Schedule 80 wall thickness provides greater pressure tolerance than Schedule 40, making it suitable for demanding industrial and commercial plumbing applications. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting when connecting threaded PVC pipe in chemical feed, irrigation, or process water systems.

This tee is used in residential and commercial plumbing, industrial process piping, chemical handling, and irrigation systems where threaded PVC connections are specified. The 1-1/2 inch size is common in branch lines, drain applications, and low-to-medium pressure distribution headers. All three ports accept standard 1-1/2 inch male-threaded pipe or fittings. This fitting is sold individually.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and ASTM D2467 standards for Schedule 80 PVC fittings. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before removing any existing fittings. Apply an appropriate PVC-rated thread sealant tape or compound to male threads before making up the joint; do not overtighten, as PVC threads can crack under excessive torque. Avoid contact with solvents or pipe dopes not rated for PVC, as they can degrade the material.
