Ipex 9837248 Cpvc Sch 80 Reducing Bushing 2 in X 3/4 in

Product Description

The IPEX 9837248 is a CPVC Schedule 80 flush-style reducing bushing designed to step down pipe diameter within a CPVC piping system. It features a spigot by socket connection type, allowing it to be solvent-cemented directly into standard Schedule 80 fittings and pipe. Rated for continuous service up to 200 degrees F under pressure, with occasional exposure to boiling water at 212 degrees F, this bushing is built for demanding hot and cold water applications. The CPVC material carries a design stress rating of 2,000 psi at 73 degrees F, making it appropriate for pressure-bearing lines in commercial and industrial installations.

This reducing bushing is used in CPVC Schedule 80 piping systems where a 2-inch line must transition down to a 3/4-inch branch or connection point. Typical applications include industrial process piping, hot and cold water distribution, and chemical handling systems where corrosion resistance is required. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting using standard CPVC solvent cement and primer. It is not intended for use with PVC or other thermoplastic piping systems outside of CPVC-rated installations.

Key Features

• Flush-style reducing bushing for in-line diameter reduction from 2 inches to 3/4 inches
• Spigot by socket connection for direct solvent-cement installation into Schedule 80 fittings
• Maximum service temperature of 200 degrees F under pressure, with occasional boiling water exposure at 212 degrees F
• Design stress of 2,000 psi at 73 degrees F for pressure-rated applications
• CPVC material will not rust, pit, scale, or corrode on interior or exterior surfaces
• Lower embodied energy compared to equivalent carbon steel or steel alloy materials

Compatibility

Designed for use within CPVC Schedule 80 piping systems using spigot by socket solvent-cement connections. Intended for use with Xirtec CPVC piping materials and compatible Schedule 80 CPVC components.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before cutting or joining any fitting. Use only CPVC-rated solvent cement and primer; do not substitute PVC cement or fittings. Follow applicable IPC and local plumbing codes for solvent-cement joint cure times before returning the system to service.
