Made of CPVC, these fittings can handle high temperatures. They have thick, strong walls to handle heavy duty industrial plumbing and water supply applications, such as water processing and waste water treatment. They also have good corrosion resistance. These fittings are comparable to Corzan. Some meet ASTM D1784 specifications and testing requirements for material quality.
Warning: Never use plastic pipe fittings 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 regulatory limits on VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds).

To prevent leaks in threaded connections, apply a non-hardening, plastic-compatible sealant to the male threads. 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.
Through-wall fittings are also known as bulkhead couplings and panel-mount couplings; they mount through a wall, tank, or panel to create an inlet or outlet for faucets, pipes, and spigots.

Gravity-Flow CPVC Pipe Fittings for Corrosive Chemical Waste
- For Use With: Hydrochloric Acid, Nitric Acid, Salt Water, Sulfuric Acid
- Temperature Range: 40° to 200° F
- Specifications Met: ASTM F2618, IAPMO Listed, NSF/ANSI 14, UL 94 V-0
Made of CPVC, these fittings have better chemical resistance than ABS plastic gravity-flow fittings and can stand up to highly-corrosive acids and other harsh substances. They meet NSF/ANSI 14 requirements for use in corrosive waste gravity-flow systems. Fittings are comparable to Corzan. They meet UL 94 V-0 for flame retardance and ASTM F2618 specifications and testing requirements for material quality. They are IAPMO certified to comply with the International Association for Plumbing and Mechanical Officials product performance standards and the Uniform Plumbing Code (UPC) for installation and repair of plumbing systems.
Attach socket-connect ends to unthreaded pipe or another socket-connect fitting with a CPVC primer and cement (also known as solvent weld).
To prevent leaks in threaded connections, apply a non-hardening, plastic-compatible sealant. 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.
270° bend fittings are also known as P-traps. They separate into three pieces, so you can access your line.
Offset tees are also known as sanitary tees and eccentric tees. They have an offset branch so the line can drain. Use them for applications that require frequent cleaning and inspecting.
Warning: Never use plastic pipe fittings 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.

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

Low-Pressure Clamp-On Connectors for Chemical Waste

With an FEP sleeve and PTFE sealing tape, these connectors withstand chemicals better than rubber connectors. Use them for joining low-pressure chemical waste drainpipe and fittings or transitioning between different chemical piping. The connectors are 316 stainless steel for excellent corrosion resistance. They stand up to wet environments, just like 304 stainless steel, but unlike 304 stainless steel, they will not corrode from salt water, chlorine solutions, and chemicals.
To install, chamfer and deburr both ends of the pipe you need to join. Mark each pipe adjacent to the connector bands and apply 10 layers of the PTFE tape directly over each line. Doing this creates a seal between the sleeve and the pipe for extra leak protection. Then, center the FEP sleeve over the tape and use a heat gun to shrink the sleeve onto the pipe. Next, center the connector and tighten the clamps to 60 inch-lbs. to form a tight seal. Finally, test for leaks.
