SCHEDULE 40 PVC UNION - SLIP x SLIPThis Homewerks Schedule 40 PVC union provides a removable connection point in your piping system, making it easy to disconnect and reconnect pipe sections for maintenance or repairs without cutting. The solvent-weld slip ends and rubber O-ring seal deliver a leak-proof connection.
- 1" slip x slip union for Schedule 40 PVC pipe
- Compatible with Schedule 40 or Schedule 80 pipe (identical outside diameter at the same nominal size)
- Rubber O-ring seal for reliable leak prevention
- Solvent-weld connections on both ends
- NSF Standard 14 certified for plastic piping systems
- Rated for 150 PSI at 73 degrees F
- Working temperature ceiling 140 degrees F (use CPVC for hot water service)
Tip: Cement the slip ends to the pipe with the union nut backed off so the O-ring and seat are clear of solvent. Once both ends are bonded and the cement is set, hand-tighten the union nut - never use channel locks or a pipe wrench, which can crack the plastic threads. The O-ring carries the seal; over-torquing does not improve it.
