Spears 8094-007 Sch 80 Pvc Union 3/4 in Socket X Mipt Epdm

Product Description

The SPEARS 8094-007 is a Schedule 80 PVC union fitting designed for 0.75-inch pipe connections in pressure-rated plumbing and industrial piping systems. It features a socket inlet on one end and a male iron pipe thread (MIPT) outlet on the other, allowing transition between solvent-weld and threaded connections without cutting out sections of pipe. The union design enables easy disconnection and reconnection of piping runs during service or equipment changeouts. An EPDM O-ring provides a reliable, chemical-resistant seal at the union joint. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this fitting.

This union is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, irrigation systems, pool and spa piping, and chemical handling lines where PVC is an approved material. The Schedule 80 wall thickness makes it appropriate for higher-pressure applications compared to Schedule 40 fittings. The socket-by-MIPT configuration is commonly used when connecting PVC piping to threaded pumps, valves, or equipment inlets.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 PVC construction for higher pressure ratings than Schedule 40
• EPDM O-ring included for a reliable, chemical-resistant union seal
• Socket inlet allows standard solvent-weld connection to 0.75-inch PVC pipe
• MIPT outlet threads onto female-threaded valves, pumps, or equipment ports
• Union body allows full piping disassembly without cutting

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation union fitting for 0.75-inch Schedule 80 PVC piping systems using solvent-weld and threaded connections.

Installation Notes

Installation of this fitting should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter in accordance with applicable IPC or local plumbing codes. Depressurize and drain the piping system fully before disassembly or installation. Use appropriate PVC primer and solvent cement on the socket end, and apply thread sealant rated for PVC on the MIPT connection. Do not overtighten the threaded connection, as PVC threads can crack under excessive torque.
