Socket Union Imperial Pool Pipe Fitting - White

The Socket Union Imperial Pool Pipe Fitting is an essential fitting for any swimming pool system where access, flexibility, and maintenance are key. Designed to connect two section of rigid pressure pipe, this ABS union fitting features plain sockets on both ends for solvent weld bonding, with a removable central nut that allows you to easily take the joint apart when needed. 

This is a particularly valuable in plant rooms, where pumps, filters, heaters or chlorinators may need to be replaced or serviced over time. Rather than cutting the pipe, the socket union allows you to disconnect and reconnect equipment quickly and cleanly. 


 

What Does a Socket Union Do in Pool Plumbing? 

A socket union creates a secure, leak-tight connection between two lengths of pressure pool pIpe, while also giving you the option to undo the joint at any time. It's perfect for any section of your pool plumbing that may require future access, such as pump inlets and outlets, filter housings, UV systems, or heaters. 

Unlike fixed fittings, this reusable union saves time, effort, and cost during system maintenance or component changes.
