Boshart PVCA93 PVC MPT x Insert Male Adapter Fitting

The Boshart PVCA93 is a PVC MPT x Insert male adapter designed for rough-in plumbing and water system installations where a threaded male pipe connection needs to transition to an insert (barbed/slip) fitting. Available in trade sizes from 1-1/4" through 1-1/2", this PVC adapter is manufactured in Canada and built for a wide range of piping applications, including installations with ultraviolet exposure, making it a dependable choice for both above-grade and exposed installation runs. As a stock rough-in fitting, each size is sold in packs of 5, giving contractors and plumbing crews an efficient way to keep common transition fittings on hand for service trucks and job-site rough-in kits.

Key Features

  • Trade Size Range: Offered in 1-1/4" and 1-1/2" sizes to match common rough-in plumbing configurations.
  • Durable Construction: Molded from PVC, offering a lightweight, corrosion-resistant fitting suited to a wide range of plumbing applications.
  • MPT x Insert Connection: Provides a male threaded pipe connection on one end and an insert (barbed) connection on the other, allowing quick transition between threaded and insert/slip piping systems.
  • UV-Exposure Suitable: PVC material is suitable for applications involving ultraviolet exposure, supporting use in a broader variety of installation conditions than fittings limited to indoor or shielded runs.
  • Versatile Sizing: Part of Boshart's PVC fitting lineup, which comes in a wide range of sizes and fitting types to match common rough-in plumbing configurations.

Boshart PVCA-12 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the Boshart PVCA93 adapter connect to on each end?
One end is male pipe thread (MPT), the other is an insert (barbed) end that goes inside flexible poly pipe and gets clamped. So it takes you from a threaded female port, like a pump, tank fitting, or valve, out to insert-style poly pipe. It will not glue to PVC pipe, the barb end is meant for pipe that accepts an insert fitting with a clamp.
2) What sizes does the Boshart PVCA93 male insert adapter come in?
Two trade sizes, 1-1/4 inch (PVCA-12) and 1-1/2 inch (PVCA-15). The trade size covers both ends, so a 1-1/4 inch part is 1-1/4 MPT to 1-1/4 insert. If you need a step up or down between thread and pipe size, this adapter is not it.
3) Can this PVC adapter be used outdoors in direct sunlight?
Yes. The PVCA93 is PVC and is suitable for applications involving ultraviolet exposure, which covers above-grade and exposed runs such as wellhead and irrigation connections. Fittings limited to shielded indoor runs are not an option in those spots.
4) Do I get one adapter or a pack when I order the Boshart PVCA93?
Each size is sold in packs of 5. That is per size, so ordering both 1-1/4 and 1-1/2 gets you five of each. Worth knowing if you only need a single fitting for one repair, but it suits truck stock and rough-in kits.
5) Do I need anything else to install an insert x MPT adapter on poly pipe?
Yes, two things the fitting does not include. The barb end needs a stainless worm-gear or crimp clamp sized to the pipe OD to hold it, and the male thread needs thread sealant or PTFE tape at the female port. Do not overtighten plastic thread into metal, the taper will split the hub.
6) Is the Boshart PVCA93 adapter Prop 65 listed, and where is it made?
No Prop 65 warning applies to the PVCA93, and it is manufactured in Canada. Both matter on institutional and government submittals where country of origin and chemical warnings get asked for on the paperwork.
7) Will a PVC insert adapter hold up better than a brass one on a buried water line?
The tradeoff is corrosion versus mechanical strength. PVC is lightweight and corrosion resistant, so it will not dezincify or pit the way brass can in aggressive water or soil. Brass takes more torque and abuse at the thread. For a threaded joint that gets wrenched hard or carries pipe weight, brass is the tougher pick; for chemical resistance and cost-effective rough-in work, this PVC adapter does the job.
