Tee, Slip x Slip x FPT PVC Schedule 80 4" x 3/4" (802-416)
The 4" x 3/4" PVC Schedule 80 Tee (802-416) combines a 4" slip x slip inline run with a 3/4" female pipe thread (FPT) branch outlet — purpose-built for industrial process piping and chemical handling systems where a minimal-flow, threaded, removable service connection must tap directly into a 4" Schedule 80 primary run in a single pressure-rated fitting. The two 4" slip ports accept standard Schedule 80 pipe for permanent, solvent-welded inline joints, while the 3/4" FPT branch accommodates any standard 3/4" male-threaded valve, pressure gauge, instrument, sensor, chemical injection quill, or service connection that requires periodic removal or replacement without disturbing the solvent-welded 4" run on either side.
The 3/4" FPT branch on a 4" run represents the most pronounced size differential available in this configuration — a full five nominal pipe sizes between the run and the branch — positioning the 802-416 squarely in the most specialized low-flow service tap applications: pressure gauge connections, chemical injection points, instrument air or fluid supply taps, vent connections, sample ports, and minimal-flow equipment inlets that must interface directly with a 4" primary header at a single, permanent, pressure-rated tap point in a Schedule 80 gray PVC assembly. The alternative — assembling a slip tee, a reducer bushing, and a threaded adapter in sequence at the branch — introduces three fittings and three additional joints where the 802-416 delivers one compact, fully integrated solution.
The mixed slip-and-thread configuration is the defining design logic of the 802-series: the two 4" solvent-welded slip ports create permanent, pressure-rated inline joints that become part of the surrounding Schedule 80 assembly, while the 3/4" FPT branch preserves full downstream serviceability — allowing the threaded instrument, gauge, valve, or injection fitting at the branch to be removed and replaced as maintenance, calibration, or system changes require, without cutting into or disturbing the primary 4" run. This permanent-run / serviceable-branch configuration is a deliberate engineering choice in Schedule 80 systems where tap points serve components with regular service intervals.
Manufactured to Schedule 80 specifications and dimensionally compliant with ASTM D2467, the 802-416 delivers the elevated wall thickness and pressure rating that Schedule 80 gray PVC is specified for in chemical processing, industrial fluid handling, and demanding commercial applications. Gray PVC construction provides broad chemical compatibility with acids, alkalis, and industrial process fluids. NSF 61 certification confirms suitability for potable water contact where required.

Industries & Applications:
- Chemical Processing — pressure gauge taps, chemical injection quills, and instrument supply branch connections off 4" process fluid and chemical distribution headers where a removable 3/4" threaded branch is required without disturbing the inline solvent-welded Schedule 80 run
- Industrial Process Piping — vent connections, sample ports, instrument air taps, and minimal-flow service branch takeoffs from 4" plant utility and process fluid headers in Schedule 80 systems where the branch serves a component with regular service intervals
- Water & Wastewater Treatment — low-flow instrumentation and monitoring branch connections in treatment plant process piping where a 4" Schedule 80 slip run and 3/4" threaded branch are specified together in the system design
- Commercial & Industrial Plumbing — instrument supply and small equipment tap connections in high-pressure Schedule 80 mechanical systems where the branch serves a gauge, sensor, or minimal-flow service connection off a primary 4" header
- Aquaculture & Food Processing — monitoring, dosing, and vent branch fittings in recirculating systems and chemical-exposure fluid handling installations requiring Schedule 80 pressure and chemical resistance at the tee body
- Irrigation & Agriculture — pressure monitoring and chemical injection tap connections off 4" Schedule 80 high-pressure primary distribution headers where a removable 3/4" threaded branch is specified for injection or instrumentation equipment
