Both ends are slip, so it solvent welds onto rigid 2 inch PVC pipe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere it is used\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt appears on Sta-Rite Dyna-Glas and Dyna-Max pumps, on the Dyna-Pro and Dyna-Pro E medium head pumps, on the Max-E-Pro series, and in the Pentair MasterTemp gas heater water system. That breadth is normal for a union half, which is a plumbing part rather than a model specific casting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy unions earn their place\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA union at each port is what lets a pump or heater come off the pad without a saw. When a union half cracks at the threads or the pipe stub, replacing it is far cheaper than reworking the plumbing, and it keeps the next service call simple.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOn assembly\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis listing is a single union half, so count your ports. Put a silicone based lubricant on the o-ring before you tighten it up, and hand tight is usually enough.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sta-Rite","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48627577487572,"sku":"STA-10-417","price":31.16,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/default_3d586cd6-9e31-4b34-905f-d054f4907fba.jpg?v=1788723843","url":"https:\/\/www.activepoolsupply.com\/products\/union-half-2-x-2-slip","provider":"Active Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
