Value Collection 15252 Pvc Male Adapter 1 in Slip X Mipt

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 15252 is a 1-inch PVC male adapter designed to connect plastic pipe systems using a slip inlet on one end and a male iron pipe thread (MIPT) outlet on the other. Fabricated from PVC, this fitting is lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and suited for low-pressure water distribution, irrigation, and general plumbing applications. The slip end accepts solvent-cement bonding to standard PVC pipe, while the MIPT end threads directly into female-threaded fittings, valves, or equipment ports. Plumbers and irrigation technicians regularly use this type of adapter when transitioning from solvent-weld PVC runs to threaded connections at pumps, filters, or manifolds.

This adapter is appropriate for residential and light commercial plumbing, irrigation systems, pool and spa plumbing, and drainage applications where a slip-to-male-thread transition is needed. The 1-inch size is one of the most common nominal pipe sizes encountered in residential supply lines and irrigation mains, making this a standard stock item for field service and repair work.

Key Features

• 1-inch fitting size for standard nominal PVC pipe systems
• Slip inlet accepts solvent-cement bonding to schedule PVC pipe
• MIPT outlet threads into female-threaded fittings, valves, and equipment
• PVC construction provides corrosion resistance and chemical compatibility with water systems
• Lightweight design at 0.01 pounds per unit

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-stock fitting for 1-inch PVC slip-to-MIPT transition points in residential and light commercial plumbing and irrigation systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified irrigation technicians. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before beginning work. The slip end requires approved PVC solvent cement applied per the cement manufacturer and applicable IPC guidelines. The MIPT end should be wrapped with PTFE thread tape or pipe joint compound before threading into the mating female fitting — do not overtighten, as PVC threads can crack under excessive torque.
