Westlake Pipe & Fittings 474-015 Adapter, 1.5″ Slip x 1.5″ Barb
The Westlake Pipe & Fittings 474-015 Adapter is a professional-grade Schedule 40 PVC fitting designed to provide a secure and versatile connection between a standard 1.5-inch slip PVC pipe and a 1.5-inch barb hose. This fitting is ideal for applications that require transitioning between rigid piping and flexible hose systems, such as pool and spa plumbing, irrigation, industrial water lines, and residential or commercial plumbing projects. Its durable construction, precise design, and reliable performance make it an essential component for contractors, installers, and facility managers seeking efficiency, flexibility, and long-lasting operation.
Manufactured from high-quality Schedule 40 PVC, the 474-015 Adapter offers excellent durability, corrosion resistance, and structural integrity. PVC is naturally resistant to rust, scaling, and chemical exposure, ensuring long-term performance in both indoor and outdoor applications. Its robust wall thickness provides strength to handle typical water pressures and environmental stresses, making it a dependable solution for plumbing, irrigation, and industrial fluid transport systems.
The 1.5-inch slip end is designed for solvent-weld installation, providing a secure, permanent, leak-resistant connection to standard 1.5-inch PVC piping using primer and cement. The 1.5-inch barb end is engineered to accommodate flexible hoses, offering a snug fit that can be further secured with hose clamps to prevent leaks and ensure safe operation under pressure. This combination of slip and barb connections makes the 474-015 Adapter versatile, easy to install, and suitable for systems that transition between rigid pipes and flexible tubing.
The smooth interior of the adapter ensures consistent flow with minimal turbulence, helping to maintain system efficiency and reducing the risk of pressure loss. Its design is ideal for applications where fluid must move from a PVC pipe to a flexible hose, such as pool filtration systems, spa circulation lines, irrigation manifolds, or chemical and industrial water lines. By providing a reliable and professional-grade transition, this adapter enhances system performance while simplifying installation and maintenance.
Lightweight and easy to handle, the 474-015 Adapter reduces installation time and effort without compromising durability. Its compact design allows for use in tight spaces, ensuring professional, high-quality connections in a variety of setups. Precision manufacturing guarantees consistent dimensions and reliable fit for both slip and barb connections, reducing the risk of leaks or misalignment.
Applications for the Westlake 474-015 Adapter include swimming pools, spas, irrigation networks, residential and commercial plumbing, industrial fluid systems, and agricultural water distribution. Its combination of corrosion-resistant PVC, smooth interior flow, and versatile connection options ensures professional performance and long-lasting reliability in any system.
