SPEARS® Schedule 80 CPVC pipe and fitting designs combine years of proven experience with computer generated stress analysis to yield the optimum physical structure and performance for each fitting. Material reinforcement is uniformly placed in stress concentration areas for substantially improved pressure handling capability. Resulting products are subjected to numerous verification tests to assure the very best CPVC piping products available.

1/4" Through 24"Availability

Spears®   comprehensive line of CPVC fittings offers a variety of configurations in Schedule 80 sizes 1/4" through 24".

Exceptional Chemical & Corrosion Resistance

Unlike metal, CPVC fittings never rust, scale or pit, and will provide many years of maintenance-free service and extended system life

Higher Temperature Ratings

High Temperature CPVC Thermoplastics can handle fluids at service temperatures up to 200°F, allowing a wide range of process applications, including hot corrosive liquids.

Higher Flow Capacity

Smooth interior walls result in lower pressure loss and higher volume than conventional metal fittings.

Lower Installation Costs

Substantially lower material costs than steel alloys or lined steel, combined with lighter weight and ease of installation, can reduce installation costs by as much as 60% over conventional metal systems.

CPVC Valves

SPEARS®  CPVC Valve products are available for total system compatibility and uniformity; see SPEARS® THERMOPLASTIC VALVES & AC- TUATED VALVES & ACCESSORIES PRODUCT GUIDE & ENGINEERING SPECIFICATIONS (V-4).

CPVC Thermoplastic Material Temperature Pressure De-rating

Elevated temperature fluid mediums require a de-rating of thermoplastic pipe maximum internal pressure ratings at 73°F. To determine the maximum internal pressure rating at an elevated temperature, simply multiply the product pressure rating at 73°F by the percentage specified for the desired temperature.
