Charlotte Pipe 438-131 Pvc Schedule 40 Reducer Bushing Flush Style Spigot X Fpt 1 Inches X 3/4 Inches

Product Description

The Charlotte Pipe 438-131 is a PVC Schedule 40 reducer bushing in a flush style configuration with a spigot by female pipe thread (FPT) connection. This fitting is designed to reduce a 1 inch pipe line down to a 3/4 inch threaded connection, making it a practical solution for plumbing systems that require a step-down transition between two different pipe sizes. The flush style design seats cleanly inside a socket fitting, keeping the assembly compact and low-profile within tight spaces. The spigot end inserts directly into a standard 1 inch socket, while the FPT end accepts a 3/4 inch male threaded pipe or fitting, giving installers a clean and secure transition point. PVC Schedule 40 material is widely used in residential, commercial, and light industrial plumbing applications. It handles cold and hot water supply lines, drain systems, irrigation, and other fluid transport systems. Schedule 40 PVC is known for its resistance to corrosion, chemical degradation, and scale buildup, which extends service life compared to metal alternatives in many applications. The 438-131 is compatible with standard PVC Schedule 40 pipe and fittings and can be solvent-cemented on the spigot side following standard PVC joining procedures. The FPT thread connection provides a reliable mechanical joint when used with PTFE thread tape or an approved pipe thread sealant. Plumbers, pipefitters, and irrigation contractors rely on Charlotte Pipe fittings for consistent dimensions and reliable performance across a wide range of applications. This reducer bushing is a straightforward, durable component for any system requiring a 1 inch to 3/4 inch size reduction.

• Flush style reducer bushing transitions from 1 inch to 3/4 inch pipe size in a compact, low-profile design
• Spigot x FPT connection allows solvent cement bonding on one end and threaded connection on the other
