FlexPVC - What are "Street Fittings?" What are "Spigot Fittings?" What are "nested" fittings?

[@why6212]

Thanks for a clear explanation! You deserve more views.

How much pressure can they handle?

[@FlexPVC]

Well it depends on the size. Look up the size in this chart and then the Sch 40 pipe rating. That will be the rating for the fittings as well: flexpvc.com/Reference/FullPVCPipeChart.shtml

How about: Spigot aka Street = Male Connection Socket = Female Connection

You didn't explain what a "nested" fitting is.

[@FlexPVC]

Sorry. A nested fitting is "spigot size" on the outside and "fitting size" on the inside. Ie, a pipe would go into the inside or you can insert/glue it into the next size up fitting. Typical is 3/4" and 1". The 1" is a spigot size (1.3125" OD) and the inside is a 3/4" slip (1.05" ID.) HTH. Thanks for the question.
