Spears PVC Union, FPT x FPT, EPDM Seal
The Spears PVC Union combines a corrosion-resistant PVC body with FPT x FPT (female pipe thread) connections on both ends, letting installers join and separate sections of pipe without cutting into the line. An EPDM seal at the union joint provides a reliable, leak-resistant seal for water and fluid-handling applications. Offered in a range of sizes, this union is built for dependable service in residential and commercial PVC piping systems.
Key Features
- Durable Construction: PVC body material resists corrosion, chemical attack, and degradation common to metallic fittings.
- Connection Type: FPT x FPT threaded ends on both sides allow the union to thread directly onto male-threaded pipe or fittings for quick assembly.
- EPDM Seal: An EPDM sealing element at the union nut provides a tight, leak-resistant joint that can be broken down for maintenance without disturbing adjacent pipe runs.
- Serviceable Design: The union configuration allows disconnection at a single point, simplifying future repairs, valve replacement, or equipment servicing.
