Spears 836-007R – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Which end of the Spears reinforced male adapter threads and which end glues?
One end is a reinforced male pipe thread (RMPT) that threads into a female-threaded fitting or valve. The other end is a socket that takes PVC pipe with solvent cement. So you thread on one side and glue on the other, which is how you get from a threaded run into a glued PVC run.
2) What sizes does the Spears 836R male adapter come in?
Two sizes: 3/4 inch, part number 836-007R, and 1 inch, part number 836-010R. Both are MPT by socket. Size here is nominal pipe size, so the thread and the socket are the same size on a given piece.
3) What is the difference between a reinforced male adapter and a standard PVC male adapter?
The reinforced version adds material at the threaded shoulder. Plain PVC male adapters are the fitting most likely to split when someone over-torques a wrench on them; the RMPT design is built up there to resist cracking under that torque. If you have had male adapters fail at the threads on a pressure line, this is the version to spec.
4) Can I use a PVC male adapter to connect to a metal female fitting?
Yes, threading PVC male into metal female is the normal direction for that transition, because the metal will not be expanded by the plastic. Hand tighten plus one to two turns with a strap wrench and use PTFE tape or a thread sealant rated for plastic. Never thread a metal male into a PVC female, and do not use pipe dope with solvents that attack PVC. The reinforced shoulder on this Spears adapter gives you some margin on the torque, but it is not a license to wrench it down.
5) Is this Spears adapter rated for pressure piping or just drainage?
It is a pressure fitting. Spears lists it for PVC pressure piping and pipe runs, with the socket end solvent welded for a permanent joint. It is not a DWV pattern fitting.
6) Do I need anything else to install this PVC male adapter?
Two things that do not come with it: PVC primer and solvent cement for the socket end, and thread sealant (PTFE tape or a plastic-safe pipe dope) for the male thread. Also make sure the pipe going into the socket is the matching nominal size, 3/4 or 1 inch depending on which adapter you ordered.
7) How many pieces come in a package of the Spears 836R adapter?
Packaged 60 each per unit. That is bulk stocking quantity, which suits a distributor keeping shelf stock or a contractor buying a common size for repeat work rather than someone needing one fitting for a single repair.
