Use these polypropylene flanges in outdoor environments—they resist the damaging effects of ultraviolet light. Flanges have the chemical resistance to stand up to a wide variety of acids, solvents, and other harsh substances. Also known as Class 150 flanges, they have thick, strong walls for heavy duty chemical processing applications. Bolt two same-size flanges together with a gasket (sold separately) to create an access point within a line. When connecting to pipe, apply a non-hardening, plastic-compatible sealant to the male pipe 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 flange, then wrench-tighten one to two turns.

Warning: Never use plastic pipe flanges and pipe with compressed air or gas.

Sealants cannot be sold to Colorado, Connecticut, District of Columbia, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Massachusetts, Maryland, Maine, Michigan, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Northern Virginia, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, or Utah due to local VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) regulations.
