Ipex 9838130 Cpvc Sch 80 Spigot X Female Bushing 1x1/2 in

Product Description

The IPEX 9838130 is a CPVC Schedule 80 spigot x female bushing used to reduce a 1-inch line down to a 1/2-inch female socket connection. Manufactured from Corzan chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC), this bushing delivers strong chemical resistance and reliable long-term performance in demanding industrial and process piping environments. Its Schedule 80 wall thickness provides the pressure rating required for higher-stress applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting where a reduction from a larger spigot end to a smaller female socket is needed without adding an additional coupling or adapter to the line.

This bushing is suited for use in chemical process piping, industrial fluid handling systems, and potable water distribution where metal corrosion is a concern. The Corzan CPVC material resists most acids, alcohols, alkalies, salt solutions, and halogens, making it appropriate for aggressive service conditions. It is listed with the National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) and CSA International for potable water use, and it performs reliably in corrosive soil conditions where underground runs are required.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 wall thickness rated for elevated pressure service
• Corzan CPVC construction resists most acids, alcohols, alkalies, salt solutions, and halogens
• NSF and CSA International listed for potable water applications
• Immune to electrochemical, galvanic, and soil-induced corrosion
• Smooth interior walls resist rust, pitting, and scaling for consistent flow over service life
• Lower thermal conductivity compared to metal fittings helps sustain fluid service temperature

Compatibility

Designed for use within CPVC Schedule 80 piping systems requiring a spigot-to-female socket reduction from 1 inch to 1/2 inch, consistent with IPEX Corzan pipe, valves, and fittings dimensioned and produced to IPEX quality and performance standards.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter following applicable plumbing codes including IPC requirements for plastic pressure piping. Shut off and depressurize the system fully before cutting into any existing line. Solvent-cement the spigot end into the existing 1-inch socket and the 1/2-inch female socket onto the downstream fitting using CPVC-rated primer and cement only. Do not apply heat or use open-flame tools on CPVC fittings.
