Charlotte Pipe 438-130 Pvc Schedule 40 Reducer Bushing Flush Style Spigot X Fpt 1 Inches X 1 2 Inches

Product Description

The Charlotte Pipe 438-130 is a PVC Schedule 40 Reducer Bushing in a flush style configuration with a Spigot x Female Pipe Thread (FPT) connection. This fitting transitions a 1 inch pipe down to a 1/2 inch female threaded port. It is made from rigid PVC, which stands for polyvinyl chloride, a plastic material widely used in residential and commercial plumbing systems. Charlotte Pipe is a trusted name in the plumbing supply industry, and this reducer bushing meets the demands of professional plumbers, contractors, and maintenance technicians working on water supply and distribution systems. The Schedule 40 wall thickness rating means this fitting is built to handle standard residential and light commercial pressure requirements. PVC Schedule 40 fittings are compatible with cold and ambient-temperature water lines, irrigation systems, and a wide range of non-pressurized drain and vent applications depending on local code requirements. The flush style bushing sits flat inside the fitting socket, giving it a clean, low-profile installation. The spigot end inserts directly into a Schedule 40 socket fitting using solvent cement, creating a permanent, leak-resistant bond. The FPT end accepts a male threaded pipe or fitting, allowing this bushing to serve as an adapter between solvent-weld PVC runs and threaded connections. This type of reducer bushing is a standard component in plumbing rough-in work, fixture supply lines, irrigation manifolds, and pool and spa plumbing. Professional plumbers rely on PVC reducer bushings to reduce pipe size within a run without cutting into existing pipe or adding extra fittings. This fitting is lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and easy to install with standard PVC solvent cement and thread sealant tape.

• Transitions from 1 inch spigot to 1/2 inch female pipe thread (FPT) connection
