Description
This component is a 1 1/2" Slip X 1 1/2" Pump Union complete with matching Gasket or Oring. The union accepts a 1 1/2" pipe or fitting on the slip side while threading onto a 1 1/2" wet end (pump) threaded connection on the opposite side. This fitting will glue to 1 1/2" pipe or slice fittings and thread securely to 1 1/2" wet end components. Important note: Global also stocks pump unions in 2" Slip X 2" Pump Wet end configurations and 2" Slip X 2 1/2" pump union sizes. When your plumbing measures 1 1/2" and your pump wet end thread measures 1 1/2", this union is your correct choice. Alternatively, if your pump is 2" but your plumbing is 1 1/2", you can utilize a 1 1/2" to 2" bushing for proper connection. This configuration ranks as the 2nd most popular version. The 2" x 2" union is most popular while 2" X 2 1/2" ranks 3rd in popularity. This union is essential for hot tub installations when connecting plumbing to pump wet end fittings.
