PVC Socket Adapter, 1

The PVC Socket Adapter (PVC10SA) from American Granby transitions 1-inch PVC pipe from a solvent-weld socket to a barbed insert connection, letting you join rigid PVC to flexible poly tubing. This slip-by-insert adapter is a common and genuinely handy fitting in irrigation, well, and water-system plumbing, where rigid and flexible piping frequently need to meet and work together in a single run.

Mixing rigid and flexible pipe is routine in many water systems for good reason. Rigid PVC offers structure, easy solvent-weld assembly, and clean connections to other fittings, while flexible poly tubing handles burial, ground movement, expansion, and routing through awkward paths that rigid pipe cannot navigate easily. The socket adapter bridges the two worlds: its slip socket bonds to PVC pipe with primer and cement for a permanent joint, while the barbed insert end pushes into poly tubing and is typically secured with a clamp for a tight, reliable grip.
