Atkore 5142227 Epvc Reducing Bushing 4x3 Inches

Product Description

The ATKORE 5142227 is an EPVC reducing bushing designed to transition conduit or pipe fittings from a 4-inch opening down to a 3-inch connection point. EPVC (encapsulated PVC) construction provides enhanced resistance to corrosion, moisture, and chemical exposure, making this bushing well suited for demanding installation environments. Electricians and conduit installers use this type of fitting to adapt larger-diameter raceway systems to smaller outlet boxes, enclosures, or conduit runs without cutting or modifying the primary conduit body. The bushing seats firmly into the larger fitting and accepts the smaller conduit or fitting on the opposite end.

This reducing bushing is used in electrical conduit installations where a 4-inch to 3-inch transition is required. Typical applications include commercial and industrial raceway systems, wet or damp location conduit runs, and utility or underground service entrance work where corrosion-resistant fittings are specified. The EPVC material makes it appropriate for installations exposed to harsh environmental conditions, including areas with chemical vapors or high humidity.

Key Features

• 4-inch to 3-inch reducing bushing for standard conduit fittings
• EPVC construction offers corrosion and moisture resistance
• Designed for use in wet, damp, and chemically exposed environments
• Compact bushing form factor simplifies conduit transitions without additional adapters
• Catalog number EPV-BUSH-4X3 for straightforward parts identification

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-fit reducing bushing for 4-inch to 3-inch EPVC conduit fittings and raceway systems in commercial and industrial electrical installations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. De-energize all circuits in the affected conduit run before beginning work. Ensure the bushing is fully seated and secure within the larger fitting before pulling wire. Do not overtighten or force the bushing into mismatched fittings, as this can crack the EPVC body and compromise the seal.
