3/4 Inch CPVC Union Slip x Copper Male

3/4” CPVC Union – Engineered for High-Performance Piping Systems

This 3/4” CPVC union is manufactured for reliable use in pressure-rated potable water systems. Its composition and dimensional accuracy make it suitable for use in both hot and cold water distribution, where repeated disassembly or maintenance access is required. The union facilitates system modularity without compromising joint integrity.

Constructed from chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC), the fitting offers high thermal resistance and long-term mechanical stability. It is suitable for integration into CPVC piping networks per code requirements for residential and light commercial applications.

Key Functional Advantages

• ✅ Thermal Resilience CPVC material is suitable for continuous service temperatures up to 180°F (82°C), per ASTM D2846 and F439 standards.
• ✅ Secure Disconnection Point Union body allows repeat access to the line without compromising seal integrity.
• ✅ Dimensional Accuracy Manufactured to precise tolerances for dependable mating with CPVC pipe and copper-threaded connections.
• ✅ Corrosion Resistance Non-metallic construction is immune to chlorides and other aggressive waterborne agents.

Specifications

• Nominal Size: 3/4 inch
• Connection Type: Slip socket x Male Copper Thread (CTS)
• Material: CPVC (Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride)
• Service Applications: Potable water, hydronic return lines, and low-pressure process piping
• Compliance: Conforms to ASTM D2846, NSF 14, NSF 61 for potable water use

Installation Considerations

Solvent cement and primer are required for the socket end in accordance with CPVC joint preparation standards. For threaded metal-to-plastic connections, apply thread sealant suitable for thermoplastics and avoid overtightening to prevent stress cracking. Installations must follow local code guidelines and manufacturer recommendations.

Applications

This union fitting is commonly used in branch line terminations, water heater connections, or any location requiring periodic isolation and reconnection without full pipe removal. Applicable in single-family and multi-unit residential plumbing systems.

Material Insight

CPVC is valued in plumbing infrastructure due to its high strength-to-weight ratio, chemical inertness, and performance at elevated temperatures, making it an alternative to metal fittings in corrosion-sensitive environments.

The 3/4” CPVC Union provides a reliable solution for professionals seeking to maintain mechanical system access without compromising long-term system integrity. It supports precise installation and maintenance cycles where modularity and performance are critical.
