90 Degree Elbow, FPT x FPT PVC Schedule 80 1-1/2" (808-015)

The 808-015 is a Schedule 80 PVC 90-degree elbow with female pipe thread (FPT) connections on both ends, sized for 1-1/2-inch threaded pipe. Both ports accept 1-1/2" male-threaded PVC or metal pipe, allowing a full 90° change of direction in any threaded piping system without solvent cement or special tooling. The all-female threaded configuration makes this elbow straightforward to install, inspect, and disassemble — a meaningful operational advantage in industrial, chemical, and process environments where periodic maintenance, line modifications, or component replacement are routine requirements.

The 808-015 belongs to the same 808 series as the previously cataloged 808-020 (2") and carries the same all-FPT configuration in a more commonly specified 1-1/2" size. At this size, the fitting sees frequent use in chemical feed systems, pump discharge assemblies, industrial process lines, and water treatment headers where a 90° direction change within a threaded system must be paired with Schedule 80's heavier wall construction and elevated pressure rating. The all-threaded design means no cure time is required after installation — the system can be pressurized as soon as all threaded connections are properly sealed and assembled, which can be a practical advantage in time-sensitive commissioning or repair scenarios.

Manufactured from heavy-wall Schedule 80 PVC, the 808-015 delivers greater wall thickness and higher pressure ratings than Schedule 40 equivalents, making it the correct choice for demanding service conditions including elevated operating pressures, industrial chemical handling, and applications where mechanical strength or impact resistance is a priority. The dark gray color is standard for Schedule 80 PVC fittings, providing immediate visual distinction from Schedule 40 white fittings in mixed installations. Apply PTFE thread tape or an approved pipe thread sealant to all male-threaded connections before assembly; do not overtighten, as PVC threads can crack under excessive torque.

Industries & Applications:

• Industrial Process Piping — Changes direction in 1-1/2" threaded PVC process lines handling corrosive chemicals, acids, or aggressive fluids where Schedule 80 wall thickness, chemical resistance, and full disassembly capability are all required.
• Chemical Processing & Water Treatment — Used at pump discharge assemblies, chemical feed lines, metering system headers, and filtration manifolds where higher operating pressures and routine maintenance access make all-threaded fittings preferable to solvent-cemented joints.
• Municipal & Commercial Plumbing — Provides a robust 90° direction change in 1-1/2" high-pressure service lines, mechanical rooms, and utility piping where Schedule 80 wall strength is specified for added safety margin or code compliance.
• Irrigation & Agricultural Systems — Installed at pump stations, filter manifolds, and control valve assemblies where 1-1/2" threaded piping must navigate tight directional changes under sustained operating pressure in permanent or seasonally serviced systems.
• Oil & Gas and Mining Support — Used in non-hydrocarbon fluid handling, secondary containment piping, wash-down systems, and leachate collection where PVC chemical resistance and Schedule 80 mechanical strength ratings are specified.
• Laboratory & Semiconductor Facilities — Directs ultrapure water, acid waste, or reagent lines through a 90° change of direction in threaded Schedule 80 PVC systems where the all-FPT configuration supports routine disassembly for cleaning, reconfiguration, or equipment replacement.
