Spears 802-419 Reducing Tee 4x4x1-1/2 in Sch 80 Pvc

Product Description

The SPEARS 802-419 is a Schedule 80 PVC reducing tee designed for pressure piping systems that require a branch connection smaller than the run pipe. The fitting connects 4-inch run ports via socket ends and steps down to a 1-1/2-inch female NPT branch outlet. Constructed from gray PVC using a bushed manufacturing method, it measures 7-3/8 inches in length and weighs 2.51 pounds. This fitting is manufactured domestically and suits applications where chemical resistance, pressure rating, and dimensional accuracy are required. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers.

This reducing tee is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, irrigation, industrial process piping, and pool or water treatment systems where PVC Schedule 80 pressure fittings are specified. The socket run connections are solvent-welded to matching 4-inch SCH 80 pipe, while the FNPT branch port accepts a threaded male adapter or instrument tap. Applications commonly include main distribution lines that require a reduced-size instrumentation or service branch.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 / Extra Heavy (XH) pressure rating for higher-pressure service than Schedule 40 fittings
• 4 x 4 x 1-1/2 inch reducing configuration with socket run and FNPT branch outlet
• Bushed construction — branch reduction is integrated into the molded fitting body
• Gray PVC material provides broad chemical resistance and corrosion-free service life
• 7-3/8 inch overall length for straightforward lay-length planning
• Domestically manufactured in the United States

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for Schedule 80 PVC pressure piping systems using 4-inch nominal run pipe and a 1-1/2-inch nominal threaded branch connection.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter following local plumbing codes and ASTM D2467 solvent-cement joint procedures. Depressurize and drain the line completely before cutting into existing pipe. Use PVC-rated primer and solvent cement rated for Schedule 80 fittings on the socket ends; allow full cure time before restoring pressure. The FNPT branch port requires a compatible male-threaded fitting with appropriate thread sealant applied per manufacturer instructions.
