Technical Information

This 2″ Schedule 40 PVC Female Adapter provides a transition from threaded male fittings to socket-weld PVC pipe systems. The adapter features precision-molded NPT threads and a socket end designed for solvent welding. The pressure rating decreases as temperature increases:

• 220 PSI @ 73°F
• 160 PSI @ 90°F
• 110 PSI @ 110°F
• 70 PSI @ 140°F

Key features include:

• Heavy-duty construction for industrial and commercial applications
• Deep socket design for optimal pipe engagement
• Reinforced thread area to prevent cracking under stress
• Smooth interior surface for unrestricted flow
• Precision-molded threads for leak-free connections

Applications

• Water treatment systems
• Chemical processing
• Municipal water systems
• Irrigation systems
• Industrial fluid handling
• Water distribution
• Pool and spa plumbing
• Well water systems

Installation Guidelines

• For socket connection, use appropriate PVC primer and cement
• Use PTFE tape or appropriate thread sealant on threaded connection
• Hand-tighten plus 1-2 turns with a strap wrench for threaded connection
• Do not overtighten as this may crack the fitting
• Support pipe properly to prevent stress on connections
• Allow adequate curing time before pressure testing (24 hours recommended)
• Verify compatibility with chemicals being transported

Compliance Information

• NSF/ANSI 61 certified for potable water applications
• Lead-free compliant per Safe Drinking Water Act
• Manufactured in compliance with ASTM D1785 and D2466 standards
