Orion Female Adapter 3/4 In
This Orion female adapter provides a 3/4 inch slip connection for polypropylene piping systems. It is designed for chemical and hazardous fluid drainage where a hermetically sealed joint is required. The fitting uses socket fusion to create tamperproof connections without metal components. Installers needing a corrosion-resistant transition piece will find it suitable.
Sustained pressure and temperature limits
The adapter withstands a maximum pressure of 150 psi at 73 degrees F and operates across a temperature range of -40 to 280 degrees F. Schedule 80 construction supports severe-usage chemical handling over long periods. The all-polypropylene design prevents electrolysis during continuous exposure to aggressive fluids. Joint integrity meets ASTM D2657 standards for fused systems.
Socket fusion installation notes
Each joint takes 15 to 35 seconds to fuse once the heating tool reaches temperature. The process requires a socket fusion tool with adjustable temperature control and 110V supply. No separate welding parts are included with this fitting alone. Buyers without access to fusion equipment or training cannot install this component.

Questions about this item
How much heat does the 3/4 FA adapter generate when fluid runs through it all day?
The polypropylene body produces no heat of its own; fluid temperature simply follows the -40 to 280 °F rating, and the 150 psi limit at 73 °F remains the governing pressure boundary.
What tooling must I already own to install this 3/4 FA fitting?
A socket-fusion heater tool with a 3/4-inch PTFE-coated head set is required; the joint fuses in 15 to 35 seconds once the tool reaches the 488 to 525 °F indicator range.
Will this Schedule 80 polypropylene adapter bond to the older copper drain pipe I am keeping?
No — the socket-fusion system only joins identical polypropylene components, so a direct fused joint to copper is not possible.
