Boshart PVCRA MPT x Insert PVC Male Adapter Fitting

The Boshart PVCRA is a PVC male adapter fitting designed for rough-in plumbing systems that transition from insert-style PVC tubing to male pipe thread (MPT) connections. Built from PVC, this fitting is suitable for a wide range of plumbing applications, including installations with ultraviolet exposure. This family is available in sizes ranging from 3/4" through 3" (3/4", 1", 1-1/4", and 2" through 3"), so plumbers and contractors can select the exact transition size their run requires while relying on the same corrosion-resistant PVC construction and MPT x insert connection across every size. Manufactured in Canada and packaged 5 each, the PVCRA gives plumbers and contractors a straightforward, reliable way to join insert tubing to threaded pipe, valves, or fittings behind the wall or below grade.

Key Features

  • Size Range: Available in 3/4", 1", 1-1/4", and 2" through 3" sizing to match a variety of insert-tubing-to-threaded-fitting transitions.
  • Connection Type: MPT (male pipe thread) on one end and insert-style barb on the other, allowing a direct transition between threaded fittings and PVC insert tubing without additional couplings.
  • Durable Construction: Molded from PVC for corrosion resistance and long service life in rough-in plumbing runs.
  • UV Exposure Suitability: PVC construction is suitable for applications involving ultraviolet exposure, making this fitting versatile for both concealed and exposed runs where UV-rated material is preferred.
  • Fitting Type: Male adapter configuration simplifies transitions in plumbing assemblies that combine insert tubing with threaded components such as valves, pumps, or other MPT fittings.
  • Packaging: Supplied 5 each per pack across all sizes in the family, convenient for stocking multiple runs on a single job or for restocking a service truck.

Boshart PVCRA-0705 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What sizes does the Boshart PVCRA male adapter come in?
The PVCRA MPT x insert male adapter is stocked in 3/4 inch (PVCRA-0705), 1 inch (PVCRA-1007), 1-1/4 inch (PVCRA-1210), and 2 inch (PVCRA-2015). The connection configuration is the same across all four: male pipe thread on one end, insert barb on the other, so you can carry one style of transition across different run sizes.
2) Will this Boshart adapter connect poly insert tubing to a threaded valve?
That's exactly what it's built for. One end is an insert-style barb that goes into the tubing and gets clamped, the other is male pipe thread that screws into a female threaded valve, pump port, or fitting. No coupling needed in between.
3) Can a PVC insert male adapter be used on an exposed outdoor pipe run?
Yes. The PVCRA is molded from PVC that Boshart rates for applications involving ultraviolet exposure, so it can be run exposed above grade as well as concealed behind a wall or buried. That matters on well heads, irrigation manifolds, and pump discharge piping that sits in sunlight.
4) Do I need clamps with the Boshart PVCRA, or is anything included?
Clamps are not part of the pack. The PVCRA ships as fittings only, 5 per pack, so budget a stainless or gear clamp for each barb end. The threaded side needs thread sealant or PTFE tape as well, not a gasket.
5) Should I use a male adapter or a female adapter for my insert tubing transition?
It depends on the mating part. The PVCRA is the male version: its threaded end is MPT, so it threads into female (FPT) ports such as a tank tee, a pump casing, or a threaded valve body. If the component you're tying into has male threads sticking out, you need the female insert adapter instead, not this one.
6) How many Boshart PVCRA adapters come in a pack?
Every size in the PVCRA family is packaged 5 each. For a service truck or an MRO crib, that means one pack covers a handful of repairs at a given size rather than a single fitting.
7) Is there a Prop 65 warning on the Boshart PVCRA fitting, and where is it made?
No Prop 65 warning applies to the PVCRA, and it is manufactured in Canada. Both points come up on institutional and government submittals where country of origin and chemical warnings have to be documented.
8) Is PVC the right material for a buried water service fitting?
PVC is used here specifically for corrosion resistance in rough-in runs, including below grade and in well and water system piping. It won't corrode like a brass or galvanized insert adapter in aggressive soil or water, though it is not a metal fitting, so don't overtighten the threaded side or torque it with a pipe wrench against a rigid assembly.
