Description
Schedule 80 CPVC Male Adapter (Spigot x MIPT)
Schedule 80 CPVC Male Adapter (Spigot x MIPT) provides a transition between a compatible CPVC socket connection and a female-threaded component. The fitting combines a spigot connection with a Male Iron Pipe Thread connection in one adapter.
The Schedule 80 CPVC male adapter is designed for piping layouts where a spigot interface must transition to a compatible female-threaded connection. Selection should account for nominal size, receiving socket compatibility, female-thread compatibility, system conditions, and proper CPVC installation procedures.

Male Adapter Design
The male adapter design combines a spigot connection with a male-threaded connection. This allows the fitting to connect directly into a compatible CPVC socket while transitioning to a female-threaded component.
The nominal size and connection configuration should be confirmed before installation. Correct orientation should be established before either connection is permanently assembled.
Spigot Connection
The spigot connection is designed to fit into an appropriately sized compatible CPVC socket. This creates a direct solvent-cement connection without requiring a short intermediate section of pipe.
The spigot and receiving socket should be clean and properly prepared before joining. Compatible CPVC primer, solvent cement, insertion procedures, and required cure times should be followed.
Male Threaded Connection
The Male Iron Pipe Thread connection engages an appropriately sized compatible female-threaded component. This provides the threaded side of the transition.
Threads should be clean and properly aligned before assembly. Appropriate threaded plastic-piping procedures and compatible sealing materials should be used while avoiding excessive tightening.
Schedule 80 CPVC Application
A Schedule 80 CPVC Male Adapter Spigot x MIPT provides a compact transition between a CPVC socket interface and a female-threaded connection. The mixed-end design can reduce the need for additional adapter fittings.
System temperature, pressure, fluid compatibility, thread compatibility, solvent-cement requirements, and applicable installation procedures should be reviewed for the intended application. Proper piping support should be maintained around the adapter.
Installation & Selection Considerations
- Confirm the nominal size.
- Verify the Spigot x MIPT configuration.
- Confirm receiving socket compatibility.
- Check female-thread compatibility.
- Avoid excessive threaded tightening.
Our piping specialists can help review nominal size, spigot compatibility, female-thread compatibility, adjoining CPVC connections, and installation requirements before you order.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Schedule 80 CPVC Male Adapter Spigot x MIPT used for?
It provides a transition between a compatible CPVC socket connection and a female-threaded component.
What does Spigot x MIPT mean?
It means the adapter has one spigot connection and one Male Iron Pipe Thread connection.
What connects to the spigot end?
The spigot end is designed to fit into an appropriately sized compatible CPVC socket.
What connects to the MIPT end?
The male-threaded end connects to an appropriately sized compatible female-threaded component.
Does this adapter use two joining methods?
Yes. The spigot side uses CPVC solvent-cement joining while the MIPT side uses a threaded connection.
What should I confirm before ordering?
Confirm nominal size, Spigot x MIPT configuration, receiving socket compatibility, mating female thread, and system requirements.
Important Ordering & Installation Notes
- Confirm the nominal size.
- Verify the Spigot x MIPT configuration.
- Confirm socket compatibility.
- Check mating thread compatibility.
- Use compatible CPVC joining procedures.
