This bushing transitions a 2-inch line down to a 1-1\/2-inch connection using a spigot-to-socket configuration that solvent-cements into standard Schedule 80 PVC fittings and pipe. The Schedule 80 wall thickness provides added pressure capacity compared to Schedule 40, making it appropriate for demanding process piping environments. Licensed plumbers and industrial pipefitters install this fitting in chemical process, industrial fluid handling, and potable water distribution systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bushing is suited for residential, commercial, and industrial applications where PVC piping is used to handle a wide range of chemicals including most acids, alcohols, alkalis, salt solutions, and halogens. It is also listed for use with potable water systems, meeting National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) and CSA International standards. Typical installations include chemical process lines, water treatment systems, and general industrial fluid distribution where a reduction from 2 inches to 1-1\/2 inches is required within a Schedule 80 PVC system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSchedule 80 PVC construction provides greater wall thickness and higher pressure ratings than Schedule 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSmooth interior bore resists rust, pitting, scale, and corrosion in virtually all service conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOutstanding chemical resistance to most acids, alcohols, alkalis, salt solutions, and halogens\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eListed for potable water service per NSF and CSA International standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLower environmental impact compared to steel or steel alloy fittings, requiring approximately half the energy to manufacture at equivalent sizes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpigot x socket end configuration for standard solvent-cement installation into Schedule 80 PVC systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style fitting for Schedule 80 PVC piping systems requiring a 2-inch spigot to 1-1\/2-inch socket reducing bushing connection in industrial, chemical process, and potable water applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is installed by licensed plumbers or qualified industrial pipefitters using standard PVC solvent cement and primer appropriate for Schedule 80 systems. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before cutting or fitting any section.
