Product Description
The 2" Schedule 40 PVC Cross (420-020) is a high-capacity plumbing manifold fitting designed to connect four sections of 2-inch pipe at 90-degree intervals. Ideal for complex equipment pads, irrigation headers, and chemical bypass loops, this "four-way" fitting allows for symmetrical water distribution from a single central point.
Key Product Features
- Symmetrical Flow Distribution: Provides a central junction for four 2-inch pipes, ensuring balanced pressure across multiple return lines or manifold branches.
- Quad-Socket Design: Features four "slip" (socket) ends engineered for permanent solvent welding over standard 2-inch Schedule 40 PVC pipe.
- Heavy-Duty Performance: Injection-molded from high-impact, white PVC for superior resistance to corrosion, scaling, and degradation from pool chemicals.
- Space-Saving Manifold: Consolidates what would traditionally require multiple tees into one compact fitting, reducing the overall footprint of your equipment pad.

⚠️ Critical Plumbing Warnings
NO COMPRESSED AIR: DANGER: PVC is a brittle material under gas pressure. Never use this fitting for compressed air or gases; doing so can result in explosive shattering and serious injury.
FLOW TURBULENCE: Be aware that a cross creates significant turbulence compared to sweep elbows. If high hydraulic efficiency is critical, consider a sweep manifold configuration.
💡 Professional Installation Tips
- Support & Bracing: Ensure all four connected pipes are properly braced. Vibrations can put stress on the center, leading to hairline fractures.
- The Quarter-Turn Rule: Apply primer and cement to both pipe and socket. Insert and give a 1/4 turn to distribute glue, holding for 30 seconds.
- Solvent Selection: Use a medium or heavy-bodied PVC cement for 2-inch fittings to ensure all gaps are fully sealed.
