Description
3" x 2" Schedule 80 CPVC Reducing Double-WYE Socket Connection (150 PSI)
3" x 2" Schedule 80 CPVC Reducing Double-WYE Socket Connection (150 PSI) provides two angled branch connections from a compatible CPVC main piping run. The reducing configuration incorporates 3" and 2" connection sizes with socket ends for solvent-cement joining.
The 3" x 2" Schedule 80 CPVC reducing double-WYE is designed for layouts requiring two branch paths from one fitting while transitioning between specified nominal sizes. Selection should account for the 3" x 2" sizing, socket compatibility, branch orientation, 150 PSI rating, system conditions, and proper CPVC joining procedures.

Reducing Double-WYE Design
The reducing double-WYE design combines two angled branch paths within one molded Schedule 80 CPVC fitting. The 3" x 2" configuration also incorporates a nominal size transition within the branch arrangement.
All connection sizes and branch directions should be identified before installation. Proper orientation is especially important because the fitting controls multiple piping paths at the same location.
Socket Connections
The socket connections accept appropriately sized compatible CPVC pipe at the fitting openings. These connections use solvent-cement joining to integrate the double-WYE into the piping system.
Pipe ends and fitting sockets should be clean and properly prepared before assembly. Compatible CPVC primer, solvent cement, insertion procedures, and required cure times should be followed.
Dual Angled Branches
The double-WYE configuration provides two angled branch paths from the main piping run. This allows multiple piping directions to be established through a single fitting rather than separate individual branch fittings.
Both branch orientations should be checked before permanent joining. Connected piping should be independently supported so the fitting is not required to carry excessive external loads.
Schedule 80 CPVC Application
A 3" x 2" Schedule 80 CPVC Reducing Double-WYE provides a multi-branch connection for compatible CPVC piping systems. This configuration combines reducing geometry, two angled branches, socket connections, and a specified 150 PSI rating.
System temperature, pressure, fluid compatibility, joining requirements, and applicable installation procedures should be reviewed for the intended application. Proper support should be maintained around the main run and both branch connections.
Installation & Selection Considerations
- Confirm the 3" x 2" sizing.
- Verify all socket connections.
- Confirm the 150 PSI rating.
- Check both branch orientations.
- Support all connected piping runs.
Our piping specialists can help review the 3" x 2" sizing, socket connections, dual branch orientation, 150 PSI requirements, and installation considerations before you order.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a 3" x 2" Schedule 80 CPVC Reducing Double-WYE used for?
It provides two angled branch connections while incorporating a 3" x 2" size configuration within compatible CPVC piping.
What does Double-WYE mean?
Double-WYE identifies a fitting with two angled branch paths connected to the main piping run.
What type of connections does this fitting use?
The fitting uses socket connections designed for compatible CPVC pipe and solvent-cement joining.
What is the pressure rating?
This reducing double-WYE configuration is identified with a 150 PSI pressure rating.
Why should branch orientation be checked before installation?
The fitting establishes two branch directions, so orientation should be confirmed before the solvent-cement joints are permanently assembled.
What should I confirm before ordering?
Confirm the 3" x 2" sizing, socket configuration, 150 PSI rating, branch orientation, adjoining CPVC pipe sizes, and system requirements.
Important Ordering & Installation Notes
- Confirm the 3" x 2" sizing.
- Verify all socket connections.
- Confirm the 150 PSI rating.
- Check both branch orientations.
- Use compatible CPVC joining procedures.
