Value Collection 16866 Cpvc Pipe Union 2 in Slip X Slip

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 16866 is a 2-inch CPVC pipe union designed for joining and disconnecting sections of CPVC piping systems without cutting. The union uses an EPDM O-ring seal at the mating face to provide a leak-resistant connection under normal service conditions. Slip x Slip end connections allow the fitting to be solvent-cemented directly onto plain-end CPVC pipe. This type of union is commonly installed by plumbers and pipefitters working on chemical feed lines, hot and cold water distribution, and other fluid-handling systems where periodic disassembly is required.

This union is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing applications where CPVC piping is the system material of choice. Slip connections make it compatible with standard CPVC pipe in 2-inch nominal size. Typical install scenarios include pool chemical feed lines, water treatment systems, and domestic hot and cold water piping where a breakable union joint is needed for equipment isolation or service access.

Key Features

• CPVC construction offers resistance to chlorinated water, many chemicals, and elevated temperatures
• EPDM O-ring provides a reliable face seal at the union joint
• Slip x Slip end connections accept standard 2-inch CPVC pipe for solvent-cement installation
• Union design allows piping to be disconnected and reconnected without cutting
• Compact fitting for use in tight installations where union access is required

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 2-inch nominal CPVC piping systems using solvent-cement slip connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter in accordance with local plumbing codes and the CPVC manufacturer's solvent-cementing guidelines. Depressurize and drain the piping system completely before disassembling or installing any union fitting. Use only CPVC-rated solvent cement and primer on the slip connections, and allow full cure time before restoring system pressure. Do not overtighten the union nut, as CPVC is susceptible to stress cracking from excessive mechanical force.
