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

This 2-1/2 inch x 2 inch Schedule 40 PVC reducing bushing is designed to transition between different pipe sizes in non-pressurized drain, waste, and vent (DWV) systems. The spigot end fits inside a 2-1/2 inch hub, while the socket end accepts 2 inch nominal pipe. It is intended for solvent-welded installations and is suitable for both residential and light commercial applications.

Material and Manufacturing Standards

• ✅ Material: Polyvinyl chloride (PVC), conforming to ASTM D1784, cell class 12454
• ✅ Wall Schedule: Schedule 40 – meets dimensional standards under ASTM D2466
• ✅ End Type: Spigot x Slip (Hub) for solvent cement joining
• ✅ Nominal Sizes: 2-1/2 inch spigot x 2 inch socket

Typical Applications

• DWV transitions in multi-diameter horizontal or vertical stacks
• Reducing connections in underground or above-ground drainage lines
• Integration of fixture branch lines or cleanout assemblies with varying pipe sizes

Installation Recommendations

Install using PVC primer and solvent cement per ASTM F656 and ASTM D2564. Ensure all joining surfaces are clean, square, and dry before assembly. Press components together with full insertion depth and hold briefly to allow bonding. Cure time must be observed before system testing. Not intended for use in pressurized systems unless explicitly rated for such service.

Compliance and Usage Notes

This fitting is listed for use in non-pressure sanitary systems and complies with Uniform Plumbing Code (UPC) and International Plumbing Code (IPC) requirements where Schedule 40 PVC is permitted. It is not suitable for hot water lines, potable water distribution, or systems subject to significant thermal expansion without proper compensation.

Product Advantages

• ✅ Corrosion-Resistant: PVC is immune to most acids, alkalis, and salts in wastewater environments
• ✅ Lightweight and Rigid: Easy handling during installation without compromising structural integrity
• ✅ Dimensional Consistency: Factory-molded to meet industry standards for consistent fit and alignment
