Value Collection 15328 Pvc Pipe Union 1 in Epdm O-ring

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 15328 is a 1-inch PVC pipe union designed for use in low-pressure plumbing and fluid-handling systems. The union features an EPDM O-ring seat that creates a reliable, leak-resistant seal without the need for additional thread sealant at the union joint. Constructed from PVC, this fitting offers good resistance to corrosion and chemical exposure in typical water and mild chemical service applications. Slip x slip end connections allow the union to be solvent-cemented directly onto schedule 40 or schedule 80 PVC pipe. The split-body design allows the line to be broken and reconnected without cutting pipe, which is a key advantage during equipment service or filter changes.

This union is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, irrigation, and pool or spa piping systems where PVC is the specified material. The slip connection style makes it a standard choice for solvent-welded PVC runs. Typical installation scenarios include pump discharge lines, filter manifolds, chemical feed systems, and anywhere a serviceable disconnect point is required in a PVC pipeline.

Key Features

• 1-inch fitting size for standard PVC pipe runs
• EPDM O-ring provides a positive, leak-resistant seal at the union joint
• Slip x slip end connections for solvent-cement installation
• PVC construction resists corrosion and common water treatment chemicals
• Split-body union design allows line separation and reassembly without cutting pipe

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 1-inch PVC slip-connect piping systems in plumbing, pool, spa, and irrigation applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified service technicians following applicable IPC and local plumbing code requirements. Shut off system flow and relieve line pressure before disassembling or installing any union fitting. Solvent-cement both slip sockets to the pipe per the cement manufacturer's cure time instructions before pressurizing the line. Inspect the EPDM O-ring for damage before reassembling the union nut, and replace the O-ring if any deformation or cracking is present.
