Schedule 80 CPVC Fittings

Schedule 80 CPVC fittings are heavy duty piping components made to handle demanding applications in industrial, commercial, and residential settings. Engineered to strict standards, these fittings have superior strength, durability, and resistance to corrosion which makes them ideal for use in CPVC piping systems to transport corrosive liquids, chemicals, or hot liquids. CPVC fittings are used to connect, redirect, resize, or adapt pipes, other fittings, or equipment to create a secure and reliable plumbing network. Schedule 80 CPVC fittings are also known as heavy duty or industrial CPVC fittings and serve a vital role in the design, construction, and completion of a liquid conveyance system.

The fittings are made from Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride (CPVC), a thermoplastic material with high corrosion resistance, chemical compatibility, and a safe temperature range up to 200°F (93°C). CPVC fittings are made to Schedule 80 standards and feature thicker pipe walls compared to their Schedule 40 counterparts. The increased pipe thickness enhances their durability, pressure rating, and overall resistance to chemicals. Due to their superior physical properties, Schedule 80 CPVC fittings are widely used. CPVC fittings are resistant to most acids, bases, salts, aliphatic solutions, oxidants, and halogens. Common applications for CPVC fittings are in chemical processing, plating, high purity applications, laboratories, potable water systems, wastewater treatment plants, and other industrial corrosive media applications.

Our Sch 80 CPVC fittings come in a comprehensive range of product types, sizes, and connection options. Our pipe supplies are built to meet the installation requirements of contractors, plumbers, and engineers in the design and construction of plumbing systems and pipe networks. Schedule 80 CPVC fitting types include tees, elbows, crosses, couplings, adapters, bushings, caps, plugs, flanges, wyes, bulkheads, and unions. 

Our Schedule 80 CPVC fittings for sale range from 1/4" up to 12” in size. Sizes vary and depend on fitting type and options. Large CPVC pipe fittings in 10” and 12” sizes are available on request for select product types. Connection options for industrial CPVC fittings include socket, threaded, spigot, and combination ends.

• Material Profile: Premium quality Type IV, Grade I CPVC Cell Class 23447
• Performance Standards: ASTM D1784, ASTM F437, and ASTM F439 standards as applicable
• Pressure: High max PSI rating compared to Sch 40 PVC fittings, pressure performance depends on fitting, size, and temperature
• Operational Temperatures: Approved for continuous liquid temperatures up to and including 200°F (0°C to 60°C), minimum temperature dependent on fluid freezing point
• Size Options: Sizes from 1/4" to 12” in Schedule 80 thickness
• Connection Options: Socket, female threaded (FPT), male threaded (MPT), or combination end types
• Potable Water Safe: ANSI/NSF certified and safe for potable water

Our industrial grade CPVC fittings are tested, rated, and certified to handle the approved range of operating conditions and liquids such as water, chemicals, solutions, ingredients, and raw materials.

Schedule 80 CPVC fittings have excellent chemical resistance and wide compatibility due to the increased chlorination that occurs during production. These characteristic properties are why CPVC fittings are commonly used in industrial applications and manufacturing processes that rely on chemicals to complete their work and make products. The extra pipe thickness provided by Schedule 80 engineering also provides improved physical strength and chemical durability for longer lasting, more reliable performance. 

Common chemicals used with Schedule 80 CPVC fittings include bleach (sodium hypochlorite), alcohols such as ethanol and isopropyl alcohol, acids such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, acetic acid, and phosphoric acid, bases such as sodium hydroxide, ammonium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide, ionic solutions such as sodium chloride, calcium chloride and potassium chloride, and oxidizers such as hydrogen peroxide and potassium permanganate. 

Chemical compatibility should always be thoroughly assessed and verified before installing and using CPVC piping and fittings in chemical applications.

Proper connection methods and techniques should be followed when installing Schedule 80 CPVC pipe fittings to ensure secure, long lasting, leak proof connections. When installing slip on CPVC socket fittings, a process known as solvent welding, use a strong, CPVC rated primer and cement. For threaded CPVC fittings, a premium thread tape is recommended to prevent leaks. Using the correct or recommended installation methods and materials will help reduce the chance of system malfunction or leaking joints.

• Chemical Resistance: Superior resistance to many chemicals, corrosive media, alcohols, oxidizers, aliphatics, halogens, salts, and ionic solutions; always verify CPVC chemical compatibility before use
• Temperature Tolerance: High temperature range allows plumbing hot liquids
• Pressure Strength: High pressure ratings provide security in pressurized plumbing applications
• Schedule 80 Thickness: Engineered to Schedule 80 wall thickness for high tensile strength and pressure resistance for hard working pipe systems
• Versatility: A catalog of fitting types and sizes to accommodate many applications.
• Certified Safety: Designed, tested, and certified precise and safe
• Reliable: Long lasting, leak proof connections and performance
