Value Collection 15254 Pvc Male Adapter 1-1/2 in Slip X Mipt

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 15254 is a 1-1/2 inch PVC male adapter designed to transition between slip socket pipe connections and male iron pipe thread (MIPT) fittings in low-pressure plumbing and fluid-handling systems. The adapter features a slip inlet that accepts solvent-welded PVC pipe on one end and a male-threaded outlet on the other, allowing direct connection to female-threaded valves, pumps, or fittings. Constructed from PVC, this adapter is lightweight, corrosion resistant, and suited for cold and ambient-temperature water distribution, irrigation, and general plumbing service. Licensed plumbers and irrigation professionals are the primary installers of this fitting type.

This adapter is used in residential and light commercial plumbing systems, pool and spa equipment installations, irrigation mainlines, and general fluid-distribution piping where a slip-to-MIPT transition is required. It is appropriate for schedule 40 PVC piping systems operating within the rated temperature and pressure limits of standard PVC pipe fittings. The 1-1/2 inch size is commonly found at pump inlet and outlet connections, filter headers, and manifold assemblies.

Key Features

• 1-1/2 inch fitting size compatible with standard schedule 40 PVC pipe
• Slip x MIPT end connections for solvent-weld inlet and threaded outlet transition
• PVC construction provides corrosion resistance and chemical compatibility for water service
• Lightweight design simplifies handling and installation in tight spaces

Compatibility

Designed as a standard slip x MIPT transition fitting for use with 1-1/2 inch schedule 40 PVC pipe systems in plumbing, irrigation, and pool or spa applications.

Installation Notes

Installation of this fitting is typically performed by a licensed plumber or qualified irrigation technician. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before beginning work. The slip end requires solvent cement applied per ASTM D2564 and the pipe manufacturer's instructions; allow full cure time before pressurizing the line. The MIPT threads should be wrapped with PTFE thread seal tape or pipe-thread compound before assembly to ensure a leak-free connection.
