ASTM SCH40 & SCH80 PVC-U/C Reducer Coupler

Key Features

  • ASTM SCH40/SCH80 compliant: meets ASTM standards with wall thickness for different pressure ratings.
  • Straight size reduction: connects pipes of different diameters with concentric alignment.
  • Solvent cement joint: chemical fusion with specialized industrial cement for reliable sealing.
  • Industrial-grade corrosion resistance: PVC-U suitable ≤60°C; PVC-C suitable ≤93°C.

Manufacturing Process

High-precision injection molding from PVC-U or PVC-C. Uniform wall thickness in tapered section; concentric sockets. Socket ID, ovality, and chamfer are precision machined for optimal fit with ASTM pipes.

Critical Process Parameters

  • Precise machining of socket inner diameters.
  • Streamlined tapered section design with uniform wall thickness.
  • Coaxiality control of both sockets.
  • Control of injection temperature and cooling cycle for stress-free material.

Raw Material Characteristics

  • Material Composition: PVC-U (Unplasticized Polyvinyl Chloride) or PVC-C (Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride), conforming to ASTM D1784 material standard.
  • Material Properties: PVC-U suitable up to 60°C; PVC-C suitable up to 93°C.
  • SCH40 standard wall thickness; SCH80 heavier wall for higher pressure.
  • Outstanding chemical resistance to acids, alkalis, salts, and organic solvents.
  • High mechanical strength and rigidity; excellent internal pressure resistance.

Typical Applications

  • Reducing connections in ASTM chemical piping systems.
  • Industrial water and wastewater treatment systems.
  • Ultra-pure water piping in electroplating and semiconductor industries.
  • ASTM industrial cooling water circulation systems.

Application Scenarios

  • Straight sections requiring diameter change in ASTM industrial piping systems.
