At 3 inches, this fitting handles a wide range of residential and commercial plumbing, irrigation, and industrial fluid-handling applications. The Schedule 40 wall thickness provides reliable pressure ratings typical of standard service PVC systems. Weighing approximately 1.27 pounds, it is a single-piece fitting intended for solvent-weld installation on the slip end and threaded engagement on the MIPT end. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis male adapter is suited for use in potable water distribution, irrigation mainlines, pool and spa plumbing, and general industrial piping where PVC Schedule 40 is the specified material. The MIPT end threads into a female-threaded fitting, valve, or equipment port, while the slip end accepts a standard 3-inch PVC pipe with solvent cement. It is appropriate for both above-ground and in-wall installations where PVC pipe is code-acceptable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-inch Schedule 40 PVC construction for standard-service pressure ratings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMIPT x Slip end connections allow threaded-to-socket transitions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight at 1.27 pounds, easy to handle during installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with solvent-weld assembly on the slip end\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle-piece molded fitting with no internal seams or joints\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 3-inch Schedule 40 PVC piping systems using MIPT x Slip end connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off and depressurize the supply line before cutting into any existing piping.

Do not over-torque the MIPT connection, as PVC threads can crack under excessive force.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Male Adapter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: PVC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: MIPT x Slip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.27 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 436-030\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51699363447090,"sku":"436-030","price":21.37,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/19d0e2fd8b20b3c389fc45917d54d033.jpg?v=1788375282","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-436-030-pvc-male-adapter-3-in-sch-40","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
