Wye Socket, PVC Schedule 80 2" x 3/4" (875-248)

The 2" x 3/4" PVC Schedule 80 Reducing Wye Socket (875-248) is the smallest branch variant in the 2" Schedule 80 wye socket series, designed for applications where a 3/4" low-flow service line must branch off a 2" primary run at a gradual 45° angle — without sacrificing the pressure integrity or chemical resistance that Schedule 80 gray PVC is specified for in industrial and chemical environments.

The 45° wye branch geometry allows the 3/4" branch to enter the 2" main run smoothly, minimizing turbulence and flow disruption at the junction. All three ports use socket (slip) connections for permanent, solvent-welded joints with consistent wall thickness throughout the assembly. The significant size differential between the 3/4" branch and the 2" run makes this fitting the right choice for highly specific low-flow service applications — pressure gauge taps, chemical injection quills, sample ports, instrument supply lines, and small-diameter bypass or drain connections that must integrate directly into a larger process header without an additional reducer fitting at the branch.

Manufactured to Schedule 80 specifications and dimensionally compliant with ASTM D2467, the 875-248 delivers the elevated wall thickness and pressure rating that distinguishes Schedule 80 from Schedule 40 — critical in chemical processing, corrosive fluid handling, and high-pressure industrial systems where long-term joint and fitting integrity under demanding conditions is a design requirement. Gray PVC construction provides broad chemical compatibility across acids, alkalis, and process fluids. NSF 61 certification confirms suitability for potable water contact where required.
