Dura Plastic L17896YP Pvc Bushing 4x2.5 in Sch 40

Product Description

The DURA PLASTIC L17896YP is a PVC reducing bushing designed for use in pressure piping systems. It features a male spigot on the 4-inch end and a socket on the 2.5-inch end, allowing a 4-inch pipe or fitting to transition down to a 2.5-inch socket connection. Built to SCH 40 and standard wall dimensions, this bushing handles the pressure and flow demands typical of residential and light commercial plumbing, irrigation, and industrial PVC piping runs. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting as part of schedule 40 PVC systems where a reduction in pipe size is required at a threaded or solvent-weld joint.

This bushing is suited for water distribution, irrigation laterals, drainage transitions, and industrial fluid handling applications where PVC is the specified material. The male spigot end inserts directly into a 4-inch socket fitting, while the 2.5-inch socket end accepts a standard spigot or pipe end. Its domestic manufacturing designation indicates it meets U.S. production standards, making it appropriate for projects requiring domestically sourced materials.

Key Features

• 4-inch male spigot x 2.5-inch socket end configuration for in-line size reduction
• SCH 40 and standard wall thickness for full-pressure rated PVC service
• PVC construction offers corrosion resistance and compatibility with potable water and chemical conveyance systems
• Solvent-weld socket end provides a permanent, leak-resistant joint
• Domestically manufactured to U.S. production standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitting for SCH 40 PVC piping systems using 4-inch to 2.5-inch reducing connections via male spigot x socket end style.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified pipefitters working on PVC pressure or non-pressure piping systems. Shut off water supply and relieve system pressure before cutting into any existing line. Use approved PVC primer and solvent cement per ASTM D2564 and applicable local plumbing code requirements. Do not apply heat to solvent-welded PVC fittings and allow full cure time before restoring system pressure.
