Lasco 1/2" PVC Schedule 40 Male Adapter (MPT x Slip) provides a durable transition from threaded fittings to solvent-welded PVC pipe. Molded from rigid Schedule 40 PVC, this adapter is suitable for irrigation, pool, and general plumbing applications where a 1/2" MPT connection must join to a 1/2" socket (slip) pipe.

  • Material: Virgin Schedule 40 PVC for strength and corrosion resistance.
  • Connections: 1/2" Male Pipe Thread (MPT) x 1/2" Slip (socket) for solvent cement installation.
  • Standards: Manufactured to Lasco part 436-005 specifications and listed to typical ASTM/NSF standards for PVC fittings.
  • Temperature: Rated for typical service temperatures up to approximately 140°F (dependant on application).
  • Installation: Use PVC solvent cement on the slip end and PTFE (Teflon) tape on the threaded end for a secure seal.
  • Uses: Ideal for irrigation systems, pool plumbing, and residential plumbing where a threaded-to-slip adapter is required.

This adapter is sold individually or by case quantities. Check pipe fit and threading before installation, and follow local codes and Lasco's installation guidelines for pressure, temperature, and chemical compatibility. For bulk orders, carton quantities typically are 100 pieces; weight and detailed specs are available from the manufacturer.
