830 Series PVC Pipe Fitting Coupling 1 NPT Female

The Spears 830 series schedule 80 PVC coupling is designed with female NPT threads on both ends to connect two pipes of the same diameter in a straight run. The National Pipe Taper (NPT) threads ensure a tight seal and it is made of gray PVC (polyvinyl chloride) for chemical and corrosion resistance, as well as high strength and lightweight properties compared to metal fittings.

This coupling is specifically compatible with schedule 80 (thick wall) PVC pipes and fittings, making it suitable for a variety of applications including chemical processing, industrial plating, chilled water distribution, deionized water lines, and chemical drainage and wastewater treatment systems. Additionally, it can be connected to other materials such as steel, copper, or cast iron using transition fittings.

With a maximum operating temperature of 140 degrees F, this coupling meets ASTM International D1784 and D2467 standards for quality assurance and is certified by National Sanitation Foundation International (NSF) for potable water service. This makes it suitable for connecting pipes conveying drinking water, waste water, chemicals, and other liquids in a range of industries.

Pipe fittings are essential components used for connecting, terminating, controlling flow, and changing the direction of piping in various industries. When choosing pipe fittings, it is important to consider the application, as this will impact the material type, shape, size, and required durability. Fittings are available threaded or unthreaded in a variety of shapes, styles, sizes, and schedules (pipe wall thickness).

Spears Manufacturing is a leading producer of thermoplastic fittings and valves for fluid, drain, waste, and vent systems. The company, established in 1969 and headquartered in Sylmar, CA, meets the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) standard 9001.
