PVC Pipe Fitting Bushing, 2 NPT Male x 1 NPT Female

The Spears 439 series schedule 40 PVC bushing fitting features male NPT threads on one end and female NPT threads on the other, making it suitable for connecting two pipes with different ends. These NPT threads provide a tighter seal compared to straight threads. Constructed of white PVC (polyvinyl chloride), this bushing fitting offers chemical and corrosion resistance, high strength, and is lighter in weight than metal fittings. It is compatible with schedule 40 PVC pipes and fittings, and is ideal for use in cold-water pressure distribution systems, including irrigation, pool and spa, potable water, and chilled water applications.

This PVC bushing fitting can be connected to materials such as steel, copper, or cast iron using transition fittings. With a maximum operating temperature of 140 degrees F, it meets ASTM International D1784 and D2466 standards for quality assurance, and is certified by the National Sanitation Foundation International (NSF) for potable water service. This schedule 40 PVC bushing fitting is suitable for connecting pipes for conveying drinking water, waste water, chemicals, and other liquids in a wide range of industries.

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