The Spears 430-005 is a 1/2" Schedule 40 PVC coupling with female threaded connections (FIPT x FIPT). It provides a durable, corrosion-resistant joint for threaded PVC piping used in irrigation, potable water, drainage, and light chemical systems.

  • Material: Schedule 40 PVC — strong, chemical-resistant, and lightweight.
  • Connections: Female threaded x female threaded (1/2" FIPT x FIPT) for quick threaded joins without solvent welding.
  • Standards: Manufactured to ASTM D2466 and certified to NSF standards for potable water applications.
  • Temperature & ratings: Rated to 140°F (60°C) for typical plumbing and irrigation uses; consult pressure tables for system design.
  • Applications: Ideal for irrigation lines, potable-water piping, drainage, and general-purpose fluid handling in residential and commercial installations.
  • Packaging & ordering: Available individually or in case quantities (see variant options for each or case packs).

For installation, apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads, hand-tighten then finish with a wrench. Do not use PVC threaded fittings for compressed air or gas. The 430-005 delivers a reliable, code-conscious threaded connection for contractors and DIYers alike.
