Installation Notes

Ensure both spigot and socket ends are clean and dry before applying primer and solvent cement. Follow ASTM D2855 for solvent cement procedures. Allow appropriate cure time before pressurizing the system. Use only Schedule 40 compatible pipe and fittings in accordance with system pressure ratings.

Typical Installations

Used in branch line reductions, fixture arms, irrigation system manifolds, and supply transitions. Commonly applied in residential and commercial settings where pipe size changes are required between fittings, valves, or outlets.

Material Advantage

PVC Schedule 40 is corrosion-resistant, lightweight, and thermally stable under normal ambient conditions, making it an ideal material for systems exposed to moisture, alkaline soils, or chemical environments.

This 1 inch x 3/4 inch PVC reducer bushing provides a dependable, code-compliant reduction solution for any Schedule 40 pressure or DWV application. Designed to integrate cleanly with standard fittings and meet industry performance criteria.
