This adapter fitting\nconnects pipes or fittings with different end types. It has a barbed male\nspigot connection on one end for fitting into flexible tubing and a female\nsocket connection on the other end for sliding over the end of a male pipe.\nThe spigot end has the same diameter as the pipe it connects to, minimizing\nturbulence and creating a tight seal, and the socket end connects to a pipe\nwith a smooth bore for enhanced flow. This schedule 40 (standard wall) fitting\nis made of PVC (polyvinyl chloride) for corrosion resistance, high strength,\nand less weight than fittings made from metal. It is compatible with schedule\n40 PVC pipes and fittings. PVC can be connected to other materials such as\nsteel, copper, or cast iron using transition fittings. This fitting provides\nsuperior flow to metal because of its smooth interior finish, which reduces\nfriction and inhibits buildup of materials. This fitting complies with\nNational Sanitation Foundation International (NSF)\/American National Standards\nInstitute (ANSI) 61 Annex G, NSF\/ANSI 372, and conforms with lead content\nrequirements for “lead free” plumbing as defined by California, Vermont,\nMaryland, and Louisiana state laws and the U.S. Safe Drinking Water Act due to\ntake effect January 2014. This nesting adapter pipe fitting is suitable for\nuse in cold-water pressure distribution systems including irrigation, pool and\nspa, potable water, and chilled water applications.Pipe fittings are\ncomponents used for connecting, terminating, controlling flow, and changing\nthe direction of piping in many different industries. When purchasing pipe\nfittings, consider the application, as this will affect material type, shape,\nsize, and required durability. Fittings are available threaded or unthreaded,\nin many shapes, styles, sizes, and schedules (pipe wall thickness).Spears\nManufacturing produces thermoplastic fittings and valves for fluid, drain,\nwaste, and vent systems. The company, founded in 1969 and headquartered in\nSylmar, CA, meets International Organization for Standardization (ISO)\nstandard 9001.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul class=\"a\"\u003e\n         \u003cli\u003eNesting adapter for connecting pipes or fittings of different types\u003c\/li\u003e\n         \u003cli\u003eBarbed spigot and socket ends for connecting tubing to unthreaded pipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n         \u003cli\u003ePVC for corrosion resistance, high strength, and less weight than fittings made from metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n         \u003cli\u003eSmooth interior finish for reduced friction and material buildup\u003c\/li\u003e\n         \u003cli\u003eMeets NSF\/ANSI 61 Annex G, NSF\/ANSI 372 for quality assurance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n","brand":"Spears Manufacturing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41534485397684,"sku":"B008I4FUCS","price":108.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0595\/9906\/1172\/products\/B008I4FUCS.jpg?v=1653809646","url":"https:\/\/auspowers.com\/products\/spears-460-n-series-pvc-pipe-fitting-nesting-adapter-schedule-40-white-3-4-barbed-x-3-4-spigot-x-1-2-socket-3-4-x-3-4-x-1-2","provider":"AusPower Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
