Spears 54211165683 Van Stone Flange 2-1/2 in Pvc Sch 80

Product Description

The SPEARS 54211165683 is a 2-piece Van Stone molded flange with a PVC ring, designed for use in pressure piping systems where a rotatable flange connection is needed. The Van Stone design separates the flange ring from the stub end, allowing the ring to rotate freely for easier bolt-hole alignment during installation. Rated at 150 psi at 73 degrees F, this flange is manufactured from gray PVC and carries a Schedule 80/XH rating. It connects via socket fitting and is domestically manufactured to ANSI/ASME B-16.5 standards. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on industrial or commercial PVC piping systems are the primary installers.

This flange is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, irrigation, chemical handling, and water treatment applications where PVC piping is specified. The 2-1/2 inch nominal size with a 7 inch outside diameter and 5-1/2 inch bolt circle diameter makes it compatible with standard ANSI 150 lb flange bolt patterns. It is NSF approved, making it appropriate for potable water and sanitary piping installations where material certification is required.

Key Features

• 2-piece Van Stone design allows the flange ring to rotate independently for simplified bolt-hole alignment
• 150 psi pressure rating at 73 degrees F for reliable service in standard piping systems
• Schedule 80/XH rating for compatibility with heavy-wall PVC pipe systems
• Socket connection end for solvent-cement joining to PVC pipe
• NSF approved and meets ANSI/ASME B-16.5 standards for pressure piping flanges
• Domestically manufactured in the United States

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and new-installation flange for 2-1/2 inch nominal PVC piping systems operating under ANSI 150 lb flange standards, compatible with Schedule 40 and Schedule 80 PVC pipe via socket connection.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter following applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements. Depressurize and drain the piping system fully before cutting into any existing line. Solvent-cement the socket end to the pipe per the pipe and cement manufacturer instructions, allowing full cure time before pressurizing. Align bolt holes by rotating the loose flange ring before tightening fasteners in a cross pattern to ensure even gasket seating.
