SPEARS® Schedule 80 PVC product designs combine years of proven experience with computer generated stress analysis to yield the optimum physical structure and performance for each fitting. Material reinforcement is uniformly placed in stress concentration areas for substantially improved pressure handling capability. Resulting products are subjected to numerous verification tests to assure obtaining the very best PVC fittings available.
1/4" Through 14" Availability
Spears® comprehensive line of PVC injection molded fittings and extruded pipe offers a variety of configurations in sizes 1/4" through 14". Schedule 80 fittings are manufactured to ASTM D2467 and pipe is produced to ASTM D 1785. Spears® exclusive CL150 Flanges are produced in sizes 1/2" - 18" with ANSI B16.5 bolt patterns, plus numerous Unions, Saddles, Transition and Specialty fittings in a variety of sizes.
Exceptional Chemical & Corrosion Resistance
Unlike metal, PVC fittings and pipe never rust, scale, or pit, and will provide many years of maintenance-free service and extended system life.
High Temperature Ratings
PVC thermoplastic can handle fluids at service temperatures up to 140°F (60°C), allowing a wide range of process applications, including corrosive fluids.
Lower Installation Costs
Substantially lower material costs than steel alloys or lined steel, combined with lighter weight and ease of installation, can reduce installation costs by as much as 60 percent over conventional metal systems.
Higher Flow Capacity
Smooth interior walls result in lower pressure loss and higher volume than conventional metal fittings. Additional Fabricated
Configurations through 24"
