Wye Socket, PVC Schedule 80 2" x 1" (875-249)

The 2" x 1" PVC Schedule 80 Reducing Wye Socket (875-249) is built for industrial process piping, chemical handling systems, and demanding commercial applications where a small-diameter branch line must tie cleanly into a 2" primary run without compromising pressure integrity or flow performance at the junction. The 45° wye branch angle ensures the 1" branch enters the main line gradually, minimizing turbulence and reducing the risk of solids accumulation or flow restriction that a sharp 90° tee branch would introduce.

All three ports use socket (slip) connections for permanent, solvent-welded joints that maintain consistent wall thickness and pressure rating throughout the assembly. The pronounced size differential — 1" branch into a 2" run — makes this wye particularly well suited to low-flow service applications: instrumentation taps, chemical injection points, pressure relief bypass lines, equipment drain connections, and small-diameter service branches that must integrate into a larger primary distribution or process header without requiring a separate reducer fitting at the branch.

Manufactured to Schedule 80 specifications and dimensionally compliant with ASTM D2467, the 875-249 delivers the higher wall thickness and elevated pressure rating that Schedule 80 gray PVC is specified for in chemical processing, industrial fluid handling, and corrosive environment installations. Gray PVC construction provides broad chemical compatibility across acids, bases, and industrial process fluids where white Schedule 40 PVC may not be appropriate. NSF 61 certification confirms suitability for potable water contact where required.

Industries & Applications:

• Chemical Processing — instrumentation taps, chemical injection points, and low-flow dosing branch connections off 2" process fluid headers
• Industrial Process Piping — small-diameter service, drain, bypass, or sample branch takeoffs in plant utility and recirculating process systems
• Water & Wastewater Treatment — low-flow branch connections in treatment plant process piping where Schedule 80 is specified for pressure or chemical compatibility
• Commercial & Industrial Plumbing — small equipment supply or drain branch connections in high-pressure mechanical systems where Schedule 40 ratings are insufficient
• Aquaculture & Food Processing — corrosion-resistant low-flow branch fittings in recirculating systems and sanitary or chemical-exposure fluid handling applications
• Irrigation & Agriculture — chemical injection and fertigation branch lines tying into 2" high-pressure primary distribution headers
