Schedule 80 PVC flanges are used to create a tight, compact seal when connecting two plumbing components. Flanges are made to connect two flat end pipe lengths, fittings, valves, pumps, or other equipment together. Flanges are disc-shaped fittings with bolt holes around the perimeter. Flanges create a strong, tight seal using bolts and often feature gaskets. The bolted installation and connection allow flanges to be disassembled and reassembled as necessary for system maintenance, repair, and modification. Schedule 80 PVC flanges, also known as heavy duty flanges, high pressure flanges, or industrial flanges, are commonly used in plumbing and industrial applications to securely join pipes and accessories in systems with higher pressure or increased physical demands. Schedule 80 PVC flanges have thicker walls than standard Schedule 40 PVC, meaning these high grade components are engineered to maintain their integrity under significant pressure and stress conditions. Schedule 80 PVC flanges are common to systems used in chemical processing, water treatment, industrial and manufacturing facilities, and agricultural irrigation infrastructures.
Sch 80 PVC Flange Sizes and Options
Sch 80 PVC flange sizes range from 1/2" to 12” in plumbing diameter. Sch 80 flanges come in either socket, threaded, or spigot connection ends. Products are available in solid flange, van stone flange, and blind flange fittings.
Solid flanges are either slip-on Schedule 80 flanges or threaded Schedule 80 flanges. Van stone Schedule 80 PVC flanges feature a loose ring designed to rotate to allow easier installation. Schedule 80 van stone flanges are available in large diameter sizes from 14” to 24” on request. Blind Schedule 80 PVC flanges have a flat end and are used to seal open-ended pipe lengths.
Quality and Safety Standards
Our Schedule 80 PVC flanges are precision-made in the United States and adhere to the highest standards of reliability, safety, and compliance. These flanges are designed and manufactured in accordance with ASTM D1784, ASTM D2464/2467, and NSF standards. ASTM D1784 ensures the composition of the PVC material used in production, guaranteeing its quality and suitability for use. ASTM D2464 and D2467 establish the precise dimensions, connections, and pressure ratings for Schedule 80 plumbing to ensure optimal performance and safety. Our heavy duty PVC flanges are NSF certified safe for use in potable water systems.
PVC is resistant to many chemicals and corrosive materials. This resistance makes Sch 80 PVC flanges suitable for many industrial and chemical handling applications. For chemical plumbing systems and conveyance, always verify chemical compatibility before use.
Applications and Uses
Heavy duty Schedule 80 PVC flanges are a common component in plumbing systems and pipe networks across work cases and industries. Sch 80 flanges are used in the chemical processing industry to handle corrosive chemicals, reactants, or liquids at high pressures. In commercial, industrial, and manufacturing plumbing applications, flanges are used to make the necessary connections for distribution networks and equipment. In high pressure, large scale irrigation systems, flanges are used to connect components to securely distribute water. Sch 80 flanges are used in water treatment and wastewater management to handle systems with high water pressure and exposure to treatment chemicals.
