plumbing pvc fittings tech talk 14 pvc pipe schedule 40 vs schedule 80 schedule 80 is rated at no less than 200 psi at 73°f up to 2 and is usually gray in color similar to the gray schedule 40 pipe used for electrical conduit there are very few reasons to ever need such a heavy costly pipe for aquaculture the outside diameter o.d is the same on schedule 120 40 and 80 so an expensive schedule 80 fitting could be used on schedule 120 or 40 pipe if that s all that was available as the wall of the pipe gets thicker the inside diameter i.d gets smaller with fittings the outside diameter gets larger the main reason to use schedule 80 is if it is mandatory in your area for specific applications schedule 80 nipples make stronger threaded connections in the united states schedule refers to the thickness of the pipe wall and therefore how much pressure it will hold in most aquaculture applications schedule 40 is used because 1 it works for most applications and is readily available 2 in small quantities it is only slightly more expensive than the thinner wall schedule 120 3 the wall is thick enough so that it will not distort when walked on 4 from 1/2 to 2 it is rated at no less than 140 psi at 73°f the highest pressure typically found at any facility is 65 psi which is the average city water supply pvc pipe fittings schedule 40 white tee slip x slip x fnpt size each our pvc fittings are all first quality schedule 40 except where noted schedule 80 available upon request and made in the usa we offer a great selection of hard-to-find pvc fittings since we can t purchase them in the huge quantities that big home centers do our prices are slightly higher but ordering from us will save you time searching and traveling 402005 402007 402010 402012 402015 402020 402030 402040 1 11/4 11/2 2 3 4 1/2 3/4 .62 .96 1.78 2.83 3.68 4.68 18.12 27.68 .50/50 .77/50 1.42/50 2.26/25 2.94/25 3.74/10 14.50/10 22.14/5 tee slip x slip x slip size each crosses slip size 401005 401007 401010 401012 401015 401020 401030 401040 1 11/4 11/2 2 3 4 1/2 3/4 .34 .43 .81 1.23 1.57 2.46 12.04 21.79 .27/50 .34/50 .65/50 .98/25 1.26/25 1.97/10 9.63/10 17.43/6 each 420005 420007 420010 420012 420015 420020 420030 420040 1 11/4 11/2 2 3 4 1/2 3/4 1.44 2.38 2.98 3.98 4.46 6.58 17.08 25.32 1.15/50 1.90/50 2.38/50 3.18/25 3.57/25 5.26/10 13.66/5 20.26/4 reducing tee slip x slip x fnpt reducing tee slip x slip x slip a size b c each c a size b c each 401101 401126 401130 401131 401167 401168 401209 401210 401211 401247 401248 401249 401251 401335 401336 401337 401338 401419 401420 401422 x 3/4 x 1/2 1 x 3/4 x 1 1 x 1 x 1/2 1 x 1 x 3/4 11/4 x 11/4 x 3/4 11/4 x 11/4 x 1 11/2 x 11/2 x 1/2 11/2 x 11/2 x 3/4 11/2 x 11/2 x 1 2 x 2 x 1/2 2 x 2 x 3/4 2 x 2 x 1 2 x 2 x 11/2 3 x 3 x 1 3 x 3 x 11/4 3 x 3 x 11/2 3 x 3 x 2 4 x 4 x 11/2 4 x 4 x 2 4 x 4 x 3 3/4 .62 1.78 1.05 1.15 1.72 1.72 3.03 3.03 3.03 3.03 3.03 3.03 3.03 13.08 13.08 13.08 13.08 21.79 21.79 21.79 .50/50 1.42/50 .84/50 .92/50 1.38/25 1.38/25 2.42/25 2.42/25 2.42/25 2.42/10 2.42/10 2.42/10 2.42/10 10.46/10 10.46/10 10.46/10 10.46/6 17.43/10 17.43/10 17.43/6 a b u buy when yo in bulk 20 save 402071 402101 402130 402131 402166 402167 402168 402209 402210 402247 402248 402249 402251 402335 402338 x 1/2 x 1/8 1.34 x 3/4 x 1/2 .82 1 x 1 x 1/2 1.25 1 x 1 x 3/4 1.78 11/4 x 11/4 x 1/2 2.98 11/4 x 11/4 x 3/4 2.98 11/4 x 11/4 x 1 2.98 11/2 x 11/2 x 1/2 3.68 11/2 x 11/2 x 3/4 3.68 2 x 2 x 1/2 4.64 2 x 2 x 3/4 4.64 2 x 2 x 1 4.64 2 x 2 x 11/2 4.64 3 x 3 x 1 14.36 3 x 3 x 2 14.36 1/2 3/4 1.07/50 .66/50 1.00/50 1.42/50 2.38/25 2.38/25 2.38/25 a 2.94/25 2.94/25 3.71/10 3.71/10 3.71/10 3.71/10 11.49/10 11.49/6 c b tee fnpt x fnpt x fnpt size each 50 405005 405007 405010 1/2 3/4 1 1.71 2.69 3.73 1.37 2.15 2.98 tech talk 15 1 square pipe ends and remove all burrs dirt and debris 2 check the dry fit of the pipe and fitting the pipe should easily fit in onethird of the way pipe should not bottom when dry it should be a snug fit 3 clean pipe and fitting with pvc cleaner then prime with purple primer choose proper pvc cement based on desired cure time regular cement requires 24-hour cure vs rain tight 1-hour cure for low-pressure applications 4 apply a thin coat of pvc cement to fitting avoiding puddling inside of pipe make certain the entire socket surface is covered how to glue pvc pipe 5 apply a liberal coat of pvc cement to pipe make certain the entire pipe surface to the socket depth is covered 6 quickly assemble parts cement must be fluid when attaching segments if not reapply cement to both parts 7 push pipe fully into fitting using a 1/4 turn motion until pipe bottoms 8 hold pipe and fitting together for 30 seconds then wipe off excess glue with a cloth watch that it doesn t creep back 9 keep cement container tightly closed when not in use 10 do not pressure test until cement is fully cured usually 24 hours order online aquaticeco.com order by phone 877-347-4788 tech support 407-598-1401 393
