Ipex 9837131 Cpvc Sch 80 Spigot X Socket Bushing 1x3/4 in

Product Description

The IPEX 9837131 is a CPVC Schedule 80 spigot x socket bushing designed to reduce a 1-inch spigot connection down to a 3/4-inch socket. Manufactured from Corzan chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC), this bushing delivers exceptional resistance to a broad range of chemicals including acids, alcohols, alkalies, salt solutions, and halogens. The Schedule 80 wall thickness provides added pressure capacity compared to Schedule 40, making this fitting appropriate for demanding industrial and process piping applications. Licensed plumbers and industrial piping contractors install this fitting as part of complete CPVC piping systems where corrosion resistance and extended service life are required.

This bushing is suited for use in chemical process piping, industrial fluid handling, and potable water distribution systems. Its CPVC material construction makes it a practical alternative to metal fittings in corrosive service environments, including underground installations where electrochemical and galvanic corrosion from soil conditions would degrade metal components. The smooth interior walls of Corzan CPVC maintain flow efficiency over time because the material does not rust, pit, scale, or corrode. This fitting is part of the IPEX Corzan system, which is engineered as a unified pipe, valves, and fittings package produced to consistent dimensional and performance standards.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 CPVC construction for higher pressure ratings compared to Schedule 40 fittings
• Spigot x socket end configuration reduces 1-inch pipe to a 3/4-inch socket connection
• Exceptional chemical resistance to acids, alcohols, alkalies, salt solutions, and halogens
• Potable water approved per NSF and CSA International listings for Corzan CPVC
• Immune to electrochemical and galvanic corrosion, including corrosive underground soil conditions
• Smooth interior walls maintain flow efficiency and resist scaling, pitting, and corrosion buildup

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style component within the IPEX Corzan CPVC Schedule 80 pipe, valves, and fittings system for industrial and chemical process piping applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified piping contractor familiar with CPVC solvent-cement joining procedures. Shut off and depressurize the system fully before cutting into any existing piping. Use only CPVC-rated solvent cement and primer rated for Schedule 80 CPVC fittings; do not substitute PVC cement. Follow all applicable plumbing codes, including IPC requirements, for solvent-welded thermoplastic piping systems.
