Value Collection 401-015 Pvc Tee 1-1/2 in Sch 40 Fipt

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 401-015 is a Schedule 40 PVC tee fitting sized at 1-1/2 inches with female iron pipe thread (FIPT) connections on all three ports. It is used to create a branch off a main run in low-pressure piping systems. The fitting is molded from PVC, making it resistant to corrosion and chemical exposure. At 1.14 pounds, it is lightweight and easy to handle during installation. Plumbers and irrigation contractors install this fitting in residential and light commercial applications where a threaded branch connection is required.

This tee is suited for cold water supply lines, irrigation systems, drain configurations, and general-purpose fluid transfer systems that operate within the pressure and temperature limits of Schedule 40 PVC. The FIPT end connections accept standard male-threaded pipe or fittings on all three ports, allowing integration into existing threaded PVC piping runs without solvent welding at the connection points.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or qualified irrigation contractor. Shut off and depressurize the system before making any connections. Apply a compatible thread sealant tape or compound to the male threads before threading into the FIPT ports. Do not overtighten threaded PVC connections, as the material can crack under excessive torque. Work must comply with applicable local plumbing codes and the IPC where adopted.
