Extreme temperatures are no problem for these fittings—they’re made of PTFE, so they can withstand a wider temperature range than any of our other plastic pipe fittings for chemicals. They have the chemical resistance to stand up to acid and solvents. Fittings have thick, Schedule 80 walls for heavy duty industrial applications. The material won’t leach contaminates into the line, so these fittings are commonly used in high-purity processes, such as semiconductor and clean room applications. They have a super-smooth interior for unrestricted flow.

To prevent leaks in threaded connections, apply a sealant to the male threads. Threaded connections can be taken apart as needed for maintenance and repair. For metal threads, use PTFE tape. For plastic threads, apply a non-hardening, plastic-compatible sealant. Tape or sealants with PTFE are not recommended for plastic-to-plastic 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. Fittings meet ASTM D1710 specifications and testing requirements for material quality.

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

The inside of these fittings won’t leach contaminants into your line or accumulate particles—they’re polished to an ultra-smooth 12 Ra finish, which also makes them easy to clean. Made of polypropylene, they resist organic solvents, acids, and alkalis better than CPVC fittings. These fittings meet NSF/ANSI 61 for use with drinking water, and they’re FDA compliant for direct contact with food. They also meet ASTM requirements for material and performance, and ISO requirements for dimensions.

Connect them to pipe with socket fusion welding for a strong, permanent bond. Use a socket fusion tool with a heater bushing (sold separately) that matches your pipe size. To prevent leaks in threaded connections, apply a sealant to the male threads. Threaded connections can be taken apart as needed for maintenance and repair. For metal threads, use PTFE tape. For plastic threads, apply a non-hardening, plastic-compatible sealant. Tape or sealants with PTFE are not recommended for plastic-to-plastic 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, flanges, and pipe with compressed air or gas.

Made of polypropylene, this gravity-flow pipe stands up to tough organic solvents, such as acetone, that would dissolve CPVC pipe. You can also use it for lines with highly corrosive acids, such as hydrochloric acid, and alkalies. This pipe meets strict ASTM specifications and testing requirements for material quality and product dimensions. It also meets ASTM and UL flammability standards. This pipe is known as schedule 40 pipe.

Connect clamp-on fittings to the grooved-ends of this pipe when you need frequent access to your line. If you need to trim down the pipe, you'll need a grooving tool (sold separately) to add a groove for your fitting. For a permanent connection, fuse socket-connect fittings on with an electrofusion tool (sold separately).

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

Made of polypropylene, these gravity-flow traps withstand organic solvents, such as acetone, that would dissolve CPVC pipe. They also stand up to highly corrosive acids, such as hydrochloric acid, and alkalies. All meet UL and ASTM standards for flame retardance and self-extinguishment in the case of fire. They also meet strict ASTM specifications and testing requirements for material quality and product dimensions. They’re compatible with Flame-Retardant Drain, Waste, and Vent Polypropylene Pipe Nipples and Pipe for Chemicals, Orion Blueline No-Hub and Orion Rionfuse chemical waste pipe and pipe fittings.
