The Spears 1435 series tube fitting is a PVC plastic adapter that connects schedule 40 PE pipe to threaded pipe conforming to the NPT standard. It has a barbed fitting on one end to create a tight seal on flexible PE pipe when used with a hose clamp (sold separately), and a female NPT connector on the other end connects to threaded pipe. PVC is strong, corrosion-resistant, and resistant to reactions with acids, gasoline, alcohol, and hydrocarbons. The fitting meets ASTM D 2609 standards for plastic insert fittings for use with PE pipe and ASTM schedule 40 standards for wall thickness to support working pressure to 140 psi. It is also certified by NSF International for use with potable water.

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