Spears Schedule 80 PVC Socket-Weld Tee Fitting

Spears Schedule 80 PVC Socket-Weld Tee Fitting

The Spears Schedule 80 PVC Socket-Weld Tee Fitting is built for socket (SOC) solvent-weld connections in pressure piping systems, available in trade sizes from 1-1/2" through 2" to match common rough-in pipe runs. Molded from durable PVC with heavy-wall Schedule 80 construction, this tee delivers a dependable three-way branch connection for PVC pipe runs in pressurized systems. It is designed for rough-in installation behind walls, under floors, or within mechanical rooms where plumbers and contractors need a reliable branch fitting. The socket ends are sized to accept standard PVC pipe for a clean, cemented joint during rough-in work, and this tee is commonly specified alongside other Schedule 80 PVC fittings to maintain consistent pressure ratings and material compatibility throughout a piping run.

Key Features

• Trade Size Range: Available in 1-1/2" and 2" sizes, giving installers a properly matched branch fitting for common rough-in pipe runs.
• Durable PVC Construction: Molded from PVC in Schedule 80 wall thickness, offering the added strength and rigidity needed for demanding pressure piping applications.
• Socket (SOC) Connection: Solvent-weld socket ends allow the tee to be cemented directly onto PVC pipe for a permanent, leak-resistant joint.
• Three-Way Tee Configuration: Standard tee body provides a branch outlet for splitting or redirecting a PVC pipe run without cutting in a separate fitting assembly.
• Schedule 80 Wall Thickness: Heavier wall construction than Schedule 40 fittings, suited to higher-pressure and industrial-grade PVC piping systems.
• Corrosion-Resistant Material: PVC construction resists corrosion and many common chemicals found in industrial and commercial piping environments.
• Rough-In Installation: Designed for use behind walls, under floors, or in mechanical spaces during rough-in plumbing work prior to wall closure.
