Spears 407-015 1-1/2" Schedule 40 PVC 90° Elbow, Socket x FPT

The Spears 1-1/2" Schedule 40 PVC 90° elbow is built with a socket x FPT (female pipe thread) connection for dependable directional transitions in PVC piping systems. Molded from rigid PVC material to Schedule 40 dimensional standards, this fitting pairs a solvent-weld socket on one end with a threaded female connection on the other, making it easy to transition from a solvent-welded pipe run to a threaded valve, pump, or fitting without introducing an additional coupling. The 90° bend allows installers to change the direction of a pipe run cleanly while holding a consistent 1-1/2" trade size on both ends of the fitting. As part of the Spears line of Schedule 40 PVC fittings, this elbow is sized and dimensioned to mate properly with standard Schedule 40 PVC pipe and compatible threaded components.

Key Features

  • Trade Size: 1-1/2" fitting sized for use with standard Schedule 40 PVC pipe runs.
  • Schedule 40 Construction: Molded from PVC to Schedule 40 dimensional specifications for a consistent, reliable fit with matching pipe and fittings.
  • Socket End: Solvent-weld socket connection on one end for a permanent, leak-resistant bond to Schedule 40 PVC pipe.
  • FPT End: Female pipe thread connection on the opposite end for direct attachment to male-threaded valves, pumps, or equipment.
  • 90° Angle: Delivers a clean, consistent directional change while maintaining the 1-1/2" trade size through the transition.
  • Rigid PVC Material: Offers corrosion and chemical resistance suited to a wide range of piping applications.
  • Spears PVC Fitting: Manufactured by Spears as part of a consistent line of Schedule 40 PVC socket x FPT elbows for reliable cross-compatibility.

Spears 407-010 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What sizes does the Spears 407 series Schedule 40 PVC 90 degree socket x FPT elbow come in?
Two trade sizes: 1 inch (part 407-010) and 1-1/2 inch (part 407-015). Both ends of each fitting hold the same trade size, so a 1-1/2 inch socket mates to 1-1/2 inch Sch 40 pipe and the female thread is 1-1/2 inch NPT.
2) Which end of the Spears 407 elbow glues and which end threads?
One end is a solvent-weld socket that cements over the outside of Schedule 40 PVC pipe. The other is FPT, a female pipe thread that accepts a male-threaded valve, pump nipple, or equipment connection. So it is glue on one side, thread on the other, with a 90 degree turn between them.
3) I need to go from glued PVC pipe into a threaded valve and change direction. Do I need an elbow plus an adapter?
No. The socket x FPT elbow does both jobs in one fitting, so you skip the separate male adapter or coupling. Cement the socket to your pipe run and thread the valve straight into the female end.
4) Can I use this Spears PVC elbow on a hot water line?
No. It is molded from rigid PVC to Schedule 40 dimensions, which is a cold-water material. For hot water service you want the CPVC equivalent, not PVC.
5) Will a Schedule 40 socket x FPT elbow fit Schedule 80 PVC pipe?
Yes on the socket side. Schedule 40 and Schedule 80 PVC share the same outside diameter at a given trade size, so the socket cements to either. Schedule 80 just has a thicker wall and smaller bore, so you lose a little flow at the fitting. The elbow itself is molded to Schedule 40 dimensional standards.
6) Should I pick a socket x FPT elbow or an all-socket PVC elbow?
Use the all-socket 90 when the whole run is solvent-welded and permanent. Use the socket x FPT version when one leg has to come apart or lands on threaded equipment, a valve, a pump, or a gauge. The threaded end gives you a serviceable joint at the turn instead of a cemented one you have to cut out.
7) Do I use pipe dope or tape on the threaded end of a PVC elbow, and how tight?
Thread sealant tape or a PVC-safe thread paste on the male threads going into the FPT socket. PVC female threads split if overtightened, so hand tight plus one to two turns with a wrench is the limit. Keep solvent cement away from the threads and let the glued socket set before you torque the threaded side.
8) Is this Spears elbow suitable for irrigation and general-purpose lines, not just plumbing?
Yes. Rigid PVC with Schedule 40 dimensions handles irrigation and general-purpose cold water runs as well as residential and commercial plumbing, and the corrosion and chemical resistance of PVC suits a range of non-potable transfer lines too.
