Charlotte Pipe Pvc 00102 0800HA Sch 40 Reducing Coupling

Product Description

The CHARLOTTE PIPE FOUNDRY CO. PVC 00102 0800HA is a Schedule 40 PVC reducing coupling designed for drain, waste, and vent (DWV) piping systems. It connects a 3-inch main line to a 1-1/2-inch branch or transition point, allowing diameter changes within a gravity-flow drainage system. The fitting is manufactured from Schedule 40 PVC, which provides the wall thickness and impact resistance required for residential and light commercial DWV applications. Licensed plumbers install this coupling when reconfiguring drain lines, adding fixtures to an existing stack, or reducing flow paths in sanitary drain and vent assemblies.

This reducing coupling is suited for residential and light commercial DWV systems where a transition from a 3-inch pipe to a 1-1/2-inch pipe is required. Typical applications include bathroom drain stacks, kitchen drain tie-ins, laundry connections, and other sanitary drainage configurations governed by the International Plumbing Code (IPC) or applicable local codes. The fitting is sold in a package quantity of 25 units, making it practical for contractors working across multiple rough-in installations.

• Package quantity of 25 units suits contractor-scale rough-in work
• Conforms to standard DWV fitting geometry for solvent-weld socket connections

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-fit coupling for Schedule 40 PVC DWV piping systems using 3-inch and 1-1/2-inch nominal pipe sizes.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code or applicable local authority requirements. Shut off and drain the affected drain line before cutting into an existing system. Use an approved PVC solvent cement and primer rated for DWV service, and follow the cement manufacturer's cure time before restoring flow. Do not apply heat to the fitting during installation.
