How to Identify and Measure Fittings
Pipe size is an industry designation, not the actual size. View information about how to measure threaded and unthreaded pipe and pipe fittings.

UV-Resistant Polypropylene Pipe Fittings for Chemicals
Made of polypropylene, these fittings won’t deteriorate when exposed to the damaging effects of ultraviolet light and are suitable to use outdoors. They have the chemical resistance to withstand a wide variety of acids, solvents, and other harsh substances. Apply a non-hardening, plastic-compatible sealant to the male threads to prevent leaks. Tape or sealants with PTFE are not recommended for plastic-to-plastic threaded connections. When making a threaded connection be careful not to overtighten the threads. To prevent cracks and leaks, finger tighten the fitting, then wrench-tighten one to two turns.
Schedule 80 fittings have thicker, stronger walls than Schedule 40 fittings for heavy duty, industrial chemical processing applications.
Warning: Never use plastic pipe fittings and pipe with compressed air or gas.

Plastic Barbed Hose Fittings for Water
Made of polypropylene, these fittings have good corrosion and abrasion resistance, and are lighter in weight than metal barbed hose fittings. Slide the barbed end into plastic or rubber hose and secure with a clamp.
Fittings with a threaded end are also known as hose nipples.
- Maximum Pressure: 150 psi @ 72° F
- Temperature Range: 10° to 150° F
- Attachment Type: Use Worm-Drive Clamps or Bolt Clamps
