Description
Schedule 80 CPVC Van Stone Flange w/ Plastic Ring (Socket x Multi Bolt)
Schedule 80 CPVC Van Stone Flange w/ Plastic Ring (Socket x Multi Bolt) provides a flanged transition from compatible CPVC piping using a socket connection and a multi-bolt flange interface. The socket connection receives appropriately sized compatible CPVC pipe, while the plastic ring provides the bolted connection interface for the adjoining flanged component.
The Van Stone flange configuration combines a socket connection with a separate plastic ring for installation within compatible Schedule 80 CPVC piping. Selection should account for nominal size, Schedule 80 CPVC compatibility, adjoining flange configuration, bolt-hole alignment, joining requirements, gasket selection, piping support, and available installation clearance.

Van Stone Flange Design
The Van Stone flange configuration provides a detachable flanged connection between compatible CPVC piping and an adjoining flanged component. The plastic ring can be positioned during installation to help coordinate the bolt-hole arrangement with the mating flange.
The flange should be installed with adequate access for bolt placement, tightening, inspection, and future servicing. Adjoining piping and equipment should be aligned and supported so the flange connection is not relied upon to correct piping offsets or carry unnecessary mechanical loads.
Socket & Multi-Bolt Connections
The socket connection receives appropriately sized compatible CPVC pipe, while the multi-bolt flange interface connects to a compatible adjoining flange. Each connection should be matched to the intended adjoining component before permanent assembly.
The socket surfaces should be prepared using the appropriate CPVC solvent-cement joining procedure. At the flanged connection, bolt-hole alignment, gasket placement, mating-flange condition, and even bolt tightening should be considered during assembly.
Schedule 80 CPVC Integration
The Schedule 80 CPVC construction allows the flange to integrate into compatible CPVC piping arrangements requiring a detachable flanged transition. Matching the nominal size, socket interface, and flange arrangement to the adjoining components helps maintain the intended piping configuration.
Application suitability should be evaluated using the requirements of the complete piping system rather than the schedule designation alone. Intended service conditions, adjoining materials, connection compatibility, joining materials, gasket selection, piping support, and applicable practices should all be considered during fitting selection.
Plastic Ring Configuration
The plastic ring provides the bolted interface used to connect the Van Stone flange to a compatible mating flange. Its position can be adjusted during installation to coordinate the bolt holes before the flanged connection is secured.
Installation planning should consider mating-flange alignment, gasket positioning, bolt access, surrounding components, and available service clearance. The adjoining piping should be properly supported so the completed flange assembly remains aligned without unnecessary external stress.
Installation & Selection Considerations
- Confirm the nominal size.
- Verify the socket x multi-bolt configuration.
- Check Schedule 80 CPVC compatibility.
- Confirm the mating flange and gasket arrangement.
- Allow adequate clearance for bolted assembly.
Our CPVC fitting specialists can help review your nominal size, Schedule 80 requirements, socket x multi-bolt configuration, plastic ring, adjoining flange, gasket requirements, bolt-hole alignment, piping support, and available installation clearance before you order.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Schedule 80 CPVC Van Stone Flange used for?
It provides a detachable flanged transition between compatible CPVC piping and a compatible adjoining flanged component.
What does Socket x Multi Bolt mean?
It identifies a socket connection for compatible CPVC pipe and a multi-bolt flange interface for connection to a compatible mating flange.
What connects to the socket opening?
The socket opening receives appropriately sized compatible CPVC pipe for the applicable solvent-cement joining procedure.
What is the plastic ring used for?
The plastic ring provides the bolted flange interface and can be positioned to coordinate the bolt holes with the mating flange during installation.
Does the flange connection require a gasket?
The complete flanged joint should use the gasket arrangement appropriate for the mating components and intended piping application.
What should I confirm before ordering?
Confirm the nominal size, Schedule 80 CPVC compatibility, socket connection, multi-bolt flange arrangement, mating flange, and gasket requirements.
Important Ordering & Installation Notes
- Inspect both connection interfaces before use.
- Confirm the nominal connection size.
- Prepare the CPVC socket connection correctly.
- Align the mating flange before tightening bolts.
- Confirm gasket placement before final assembly.
