Ipex 9837422 Cpvc Sch 80 Reducing Hex Bushing 4x3 Inches

Product Description

The IPEX 9837422 is a CPVC Schedule 80 reducing hex bushing with a spigot x socket end connection, sized at 4 inches by 3 inches. Manufactured from Corzan CPVC to ASTM F439 and injection molded to a light gray finish, this bushing transitions pipe from a larger nominal diameter down to a smaller run within industrial and commercial piping systems. It carries a pressure rating of 2000 psi at 73 degrees F and a temperature rating of 210 degrees F. Licensed plumbers and piping contractors install this fitting using solvent cement per standard procedures for CPVC thermoplastic systems.

This bushing is suited for demanding process and utility piping applications including chemical processing, industrial plating, chilled water distribution, deionized water lines, chemical drainage, and wastewater treatment systems. Its CPVC construction resists corrosion and chemical attack across a broad service temperature range, making it appropriate for both above-grade and underground installations where metallic fittings would degrade. The hex head profile allows wrench engagement for tight, aligned assembly during installation.

Key Features

• CPVC material to ASTM F439 for corrosion and chemical resistance
• Schedule 80 wall thickness rated to 2000 psi at 73 degrees F
• Maximum service temperature of 210 degrees F
• Hex head, flush, reducing configuration for wrench-assisted installation
• Spigot x socket end connection joined with solvent cement
• Meets ANSI/NSF 14/61 for safe use in potable and process water systems
• Injection molded construction for consistent dimensional tolerances

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style CPVC Schedule 80 replacement or new-installation fitting for industrial and commercial piping systems requiring a 4-inch to 3-inch reduction with solvent-cemented spigot x socket joints.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified piping contractor familiar with CPVC solvent cementing procedures. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before cutting into any existing line. Use CPVC-rated primer and solvent cement; do not substitute PVC cement, as it is not rated for CPVC thermoplastics. Follow applicable IPC and local plumbing codes for joint cure times before returning the system to service.
