Charlotte Pipe 436-074 1/2 Inches X 3/4 Inches Pvc Sch. 40 Reducing Male Adapter Mpt X Socket

Product Description

The Charlotte Pipe 436-074 is a PVC Schedule 40 Reducing Male Adapter designed to connect a 1/2 inches male pipe thread (MPT) end to a 3/4 inches socket connection. This fitting is a staple in residential and commercial plumbing systems wherever a threaded pipe must transition into a solvent-weld socket joint while also stepping down in pipe size. Plumbers, pipefitters, and general contractors rely on reducing male adapters like this one to simplify transitions between different pipe diameters without adding unnecessary fittings or joints to a run. The MPT end threads directly into a female-threaded fitting, valve, or fixture, while the socket end accepts a 3/4 inches PVC pipe for a clean, solvent-cemented connection. PVC Schedule 40 is one of the most widely used pipe materials in the trades. It handles pressures common to water supply, irrigation, and drain systems. The Schedule 40 wall thickness provides reliable strength for standard service conditions. PVC is also resistant to corrosion, scale buildup, and many chemicals, making it a long-lasting choice for both potable water and non-potable applications. Charlotte Pipe is a well-established manufacturer of PVC, CPVC, and ABS pipe and fittings. Their fittings are manufactured to meet industry standards, giving plumbing professionals confidence in fit, finish, and dimensional accuracy. The 436-074 is a straightforward, dependable fitting that belongs on any service truck or job site where PVC Schedule 40 work is common. Whether you are roughing in a new bathroom, repairing an irrigation system, or connecting a valve into a water line, this reducing male adapter provides a clean and code-compliant solution for joining threaded and socket PVC components of different sizes.
