Charlotte Pipe 438-101 Pvc Schedule 40 Reducer Bushing Flush Style Spigot X Fpt 3/4 Inches X 1/2 Inches

Product Description

The Charlotte Pipe 438-101 is a PVC Schedule 40 Reducer Bushing in a flush style configuration with a Spigot x Female Pipe Thread (FPT) connection. It transitions from a 3/4 inch pipe to a 1/2 inch pipe, making it a reliable choice for plumbing systems that require a step-down in line size. This bushing is manufactured from rigid PVC, a material known for its chemical resistance, long service life, and ease of installation. It is well suited for residential and commercial plumbing applications, irrigation systems, water distribution lines, and light industrial piping. Plumbers and pipefitters rely on reducer bushings like this one to connect pipes of different diameters without the need for additional adapters or couplings, which saves both time and material cost on the job. The flush style design means the bushing sits flat within the fitting socket rather than protruding, providing a clean, low-profile transition. The spigot end inserts directly into a standard 3/4 inch socket fitting, while the FPT end accepts a 1/2 inch male threaded pipe or fitting. Schedule 40 PVC is rated for a range of working pressures and temperatures suitable for most standard plumbing and irrigation applications. This product meets ASTM standards for PVC pressure fittings and is compatible with standard PVC solvent cement for a secure, leak-free bond on the spigot side. Charlotte Pipe is a trusted name in the plumbing supply industry, known for consistent quality and wide code compliance. This reducer bushing is a simple, dependable solution for any plumber needing to reduce line size in a PVC piping system.
