Sunbelt Marketing cpvc-bft12 Cpvc Female Adapter 1/2 in

Product Description

The SUNBELT MARKETING cpvc-bft12 is a 1/2 inch CPVC female adapter designed to transition between threaded and slip connections in hot and cold water distribution systems. It features a female NPT (FNPT) thread on one end and a solvent-weld slip socket on the other, allowing installers to connect threaded pipe or fittings to CPVC solvent-weld piping. This adapter is a standard fitting used by plumbers and pipefitters in residential and light commercial plumbing applications where CPVC piping is specified.

This fitting is commonly used in new construction and retrofit plumbing systems where a transition from threaded iron or brass components to CPVC distribution lines is required. Typical install scenarios include connecting threaded valves, water heaters, or supply manifolds into CPVC branch lines. The 1/2 inch size suits standard residential water supply branch lines running to fixtures and appliances.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before beginning work. Apply CPVC-rated solvent cement to the slip socket end following manufacturer instructions for cure time before pressurizing the system.
