1" SPG x MPT PVC Adapter (SCH 80)
1" Schedule 80 PVC Adapter used to transition from a spigot (plain pipe end) connection to a male pipe thread (MPT) connection
SKU: P-WAT-3309
The P-WAT-3309 (Spears Part Number: 861-010) is a highly versatile component in PVC plumbing systems. Its primary function is to allow a socket-weld fitting to be connected to a threaded fitting or valve, or vice versa, while maintaining the high pressure rating of Schedule 80 PVC.
Construction and Connections
- Fitting Type: Adapter.
- Nominal Size: 1 inch.
- Material: PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride), typically Gray in color.
- Schedule Rating: Schedule 80 (SCH 80). This thicker wall designation ensures superior hydrostatic strength suitable for high-pressure industrial and commercial water systems.
- Connections: Spigot (SPG) x MPT (Male Pipe Thread).
- SPG (Spigot): This end is the same dimension as the outside diameter of a standard pipe. It fits inside the socket (hub) of another fitting (like a coupler or elbow) and requires PVC cement for a secure, permanent, solvent-weld connection.
- MPT (Male Pipe Thread): This end features external threads and screws into a female-threaded fitting or port.
