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

1-1/4 inch x 1 inch PVC Schedule 40 Reducing Bushing – Spigot x Slip

The 1-1/4 inch x 1 inch PVC Schedule 40 Reducing Bushing is used to reduce pipe size in solvent-welded pressure and drainage systems. Designed with a spigot x slip configuration, this fitting enables a 1-1/4 inch spigot end to be inserted into a standard hub fitting, with a 1 inch slip socket accepting the reduced pipe size. Manufactured from rigid, lead-free PVC, it is suitable for cold water, DWV, and irrigation systems.

Features and Performance Characteristics

• ✅ Schedule 40 Design: Rated for pressure and non-pressure applications in accordance with ASTM D2466.
• ✅ Material: Non-metallic, corrosion-resistant PVC for chemical and moisture resistance.
• ✅ Connection Type: Spigot x Slip — solvent-welded using primer and cement for permanent bonding.
• ✅ Temperature Rating: Max service temperature of 140°F (60°C) in pressure systems, depending on system configuration.

Installation Guidelines

Ensure pipe ends are square-cut and free from debris. Apply approved PVC primer followed by solvent cement to both the fitting and pipe. Insert the pipe to full socket depth and hold until set. Cure time must meet product instructions before pressurizing the system. No thread sealant or tape is used with slip connections.

Application Scope

This bushing is commonly used in:

• Potable water distribution systems (cold water only)
• Drain-waste-vent (DWV) installations
• Irrigation lines and agricultural piping systems
• Systems requiring dimensional transitions within a compact footprint

Regulatory and Code Compliance

Made from lead-free PVC material in compliance with NSF/ANSI 61 and 372 standards for potable water. Verify local jurisdictional code acceptance prior to use in regulated applications.
