1/2" PVC Bulkhead Fitting

This gray PVC bulkhead fitting provides a 1/2 inch socket-by-socket connection for tank or panel installations. It requires a 1 3/8 inch mounting hole and accepts walls up to 2.08 inches thick. The EPDM gasket seals against the mounting surface for leak-resistant service.

Installers needing a socket-to-socket tank

Suited for plumbing professionals and pool-equipment builders who need a straight-through bulkhead in PVC systems. Not intended for threaded-pipe connections, high-temperature lines above 140 degrees F, or applications exceeding 150 psi working pressure. Buyers requiring flange, compression or threaded ends should select a different fitting style.

150 psi maximum working pressure

The fitting is rated for 150 psi at temperatures between 40 and 140 degrees F. This pressure ceiling determines whether the part matches the system design; verify your circuit pressure before specifying. Exceeding the rating risks joint failure and voids the intended service life.

Questions about this item

What size hole must I drill in the tank wall for the 1/2" bulkhead fitting?

Drill a 1 3/8 in hole in the tank wall so the fitting seats correctly and the EPDM gasket seals.

Will the 150 psi rating hold if I connect it to older Schedule 40 PVC pipe?

Yes, the fitting is rated to 150 psi and its socket ends solvent-weld to standard Schedule 40 PVC of the same nominal size.

How can I confirm the fitting is sealed after I glue it in place?

Pressurise the system up to 150 psi and check the gasket face and socket joints for leaks; the gray PVC body should show no weeping.
