The 1-1/2 Socket Schedule 80 Polyvinyl Chloride Ball Valve is a high-strength, corrosion-resistant valve designed for high-pressure piping systems. Featuring socket (solvent weld) connections, it ensures a secure and leak-proof bond when bonded with PVC cement. Made from Schedule 40 PVC, it has thicker walls and a higher pressure rating than Schedule 80, making it ideal for industrial, chemical, and heavy-duty plumbing applications.
