Chemtrol Schedule 80 Adapter Coupling
The Chemtrol 6503 adapter coupling joins 1 1/2 inch Schedule 80 pipe using a socket end and a female NPT thread. It is built from polyvinylidene fluoride for chemical resistance in industrial plumbing systems. The red fitting includes a seal and measures 2 31/64 inches overall length. Suitable for new installations requiring a durable transition between socket and threaded connections.
Pressure and temperature headroom
Rated for 360 psi maximum operating pressure at 73 degrees Fahrenheit, the coupling handles typical Schedule 80 service conditions. The material remains stable up to 280 degrees Fahrenheit, giving headroom for hot fluid lines. Above that temperature the pressure rating drops and the fitting should not be used. It is not for systems exceeding the stated pressure or temperature limits.
Socket by female NPT configuration
The single deciding specification is the S x FPT connection type: one 1 1/2 inch socket end and one 1 1/2 inch female NPT thread. This matches only pipe and components with the same nominal size and thread standard. Buyers needing a different end combination or a larger diameter must select another fitting.

Questions about this item
Will the 1 1/2 in socket on this Chemtrol 6503 adapter fit existing Schedule 80 piping?
Yes, the coupling is built for Schedule 80 pipe and its 1 1/2 in socket end matches that standard.
How can I verify the joint is sound after assembly?
Pressurise the line up to 360 psi at 73 degrees F; a leak-free hold confirms the seal is working.
Does the 6503 coupling come with the seal or must I buy it separately?
The seal is included in the box; no extra sealing component is required.
