Spears SPE801030 Pvc Sch 80 Slip Tee 1-1/2 in

Product Description

The SPEARS SPE801030 is a Schedule 80 PVC slip tee fitting sized at 1-1/2 inches. It provides a three-way branch connection in pressure-rated piping systems, joining two inline pipe runs with a perpendicular outlet. The slip socket ends accept solvent-cemented PVC pipe for a permanent, leak-resistant joint. Schedule 80 wall thickness makes this fitting suitable for higher-pressure applications compared to standard Schedule 40 fittings. Plumbers, pipefitters, and industrial maintenance technicians typically install this type of fitting in chemical, irrigation, industrial process, and plumbing systems where additional pressure capacity is required.

This fitting is suited for residential and commercial applications where PVC Schedule 80 pressure pipe is specified. Common install scenarios include chemical feed lines, water treatment piping, irrigation headers, and industrial process lines. The slip-style sockets require standard PVC primer and solvent cement per the fitting manufacturer and applicable plumbing code. It is not intended for use with threaded connections or compression-style fittings.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 wall thickness for higher pressure ratings compared to Schedule 40
• Slip socket ends for solvent-cement installation with standard 1-1/2 inch PVC pipe
• Three-way tee configuration for inline branch connections
• PVC material offers resistance to corrosion and many common chemicals
• Lightweight at 0.52 pounds, easing handling in overhead or confined-space installs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting compatible with 1-1/2 inch Schedule 80 PVC pressure pipe systems using solvent-cement joints.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter in accordance with local plumbing codes and ASTM solvent-cementing procedures. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before cutting into any existing line. Use appropriate PVC primer and solvent cement rated for Schedule 80 fittings, and allow full cure time before pressurizing. Do not use this fitting for applications involving compressed air or gas without verifying local code allowance and pressure ratings.
