1-1/2 inch x 3/4 inch PVC Schedule 40 Bushing Fitting x Female

1-1/2 Inch x 3/4 Inch PVC Schedule 40 Reducing Bushing – Spigot x Slip

The 1-1/2 inch x 3/4 inch PVC Schedule 40 Reducing Bushing is designed for solvent-weld connections in pressure and non-pressure piping systems. This fitting reduces pipe size from 1-1/2 inch to 3/4 inch and is commonly used in water distribution, irrigation, and drain, waste, and vent (DWV) applications.

Material and Dimensional Standards

Manufactured from rigid PVC conforming to ASTM D1784 Cell Classification 12454, this bushing meets dimensional standards per ASTM D2466. It is compatible with Schedule 40 PVC systems and is rated for cold potable water service and non-pressurized drainage lines where applicable.

• ✅ Material: Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC), Type I, Grade I
• ✅ Nominal Size: 1-1/2 inch x 3/4 inch
• ✅ Connection Type: Spigot x Slip (solvent weld)
• ✅ Standards: ASTM D2466, NSF 14, and NSF/ANSI 61 listed

Typical Applications

Used in piping systems that require a size transition, such as manifold assemblies, branch line reductions, and transitions in irrigation networks. Suitable for installation in residential, commercial, and light industrial environments involving potable water or DWV service.

Installation Guidelines

This bushing is intended for solvent-weld installation. Surfaces must be clean, square-cut, and free from burrs. Use primer and PVC cement in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions and applicable plumbing code. Allow full cure time prior to system pressurization or flow activation.

• ✅ Solvent Cement Use: Required for structural bond and sealing integrity
• ✅ Temperature Range: 33°F to 140°F (continuous service rating)
• ✅ Pressure Rating: Up to 150 PSI at 73°F (subject to pipe size and layout)

Performance Characteristics

• ✅ Non-Metallic: Corrosion-resistant and electrically non-conductive
• ✅ Lightweight Construction: Facilitates easy handling and reduced install time
• ✅ Dimensional Stability: Manufactured to close tolerances for consistent fit and alignment

The 1-1/2 inch x 3/4 inch PVC Schedule 40 Reducing Bushing provides a reliable, code-compliant method for downsizing within solvent-welded piping systems. Its durable, chemically resistant body and consistent fit make it a standard component for high-integrity installations in potable water and DWV applications.
