1-1/2 inch x 1 inch PVC Schedule 40 Bushing Fitting x Plastic

1-1/2 inch x 1 inch PVC Schedule 40 Bushing – Engineered for DWV System Transitions

The 1-1/2 inch x 1 inch PVC Schedule 40 Bushing is a reducing fitting used to join pipes of different diameters within drain, waste, and vent systems. Designed in accordance with ASTM D2466 standards, this component enables smooth internal diameter transitions while maintaining the integrity and performance of the system.

Manufactured from rigid polyvinyl chloride (PVC), this bushing offers high tensile strength, dimensional stability, and resistance to corrosion and chemical exposure. It is intended for non-pressurized applications and is typically solvent welded into a Schedule 40 fitting socket.

Key Product Features

• Schedule 40 PVC Material – Offers excellent rigidity and impact resistance for DWV systems.
• Reducing Size: 1-1/2 inch Spigot x 1 inch Slip
• ASTM Compliance: Meets ASTM D2466 requirements for socket-type PVC fittings.
• Temperature Rating: Suitable for use in systems up to 140°F (60°C) under intermittent flow conditions.
• Non-Metallic Construction – Immune to rust, scale buildup, and galvanic corrosion.

Application Overview

This bushing is commonly used in residential and light commercial DWV systems where a transition between 1-1/2 inch and 1 inch nominal pipe sizes is required. It is installed in horizontal or vertical runs within gravity-fed waste piping systems.

Installation Guidelines

• Use solvent cement and primer compliant with ASTM F656 and F493 for a permanent bond.
• Deburr and clean all pipe ends before assembly to ensure a leak-free joint.
• Confirm fit with matching socket depth and pipe schedule for proper engagement.

Advantages of PVC DWV Components

• Lightweight and easy to handle during installation.
• Consistent wall thickness ensures reliable dimensional fit across fittings.
• Cost-effective alternative to cast iron and metal systems in non-pressure waste applications.

Note:

This fitting is not suitable for pressurized potable water or compressed air applications. It is intended for use in non-pressurized systems such as waste, venting, and gravity flow drainage piping.

The 1-1/2 inch x 1 inch PVC Schedule 40 Bushing delivers precise sizing and consistent material integrity for transitions in DWV applications, supporting code-compliant installations and long-term system performance.
