Ipex 9838209 Cpvc Sch 80 Spigot X Female Bushing 1-1/2x1/2 in

Product Description

The IPEX 9838209 is a CPVC Schedule 80 spigot x female threaded bushing designed to reduce a 1-1/2-inch line down to a 1/2-inch female-threaded connection. Manufactured from chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC), this bushing delivers strong chemical resistance and reliable performance across a broad service temperature range. It is engineered for industrial and commercial piping systems where corrosion resistance, extended service life, and low maintenance are priorities. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in chemical process lines, industrial fluid handling systems, and potable water applications where a spigot-to-female threaded reduction is required.

The 9838209 is suited for use in industrial process piping, chemical distribution systems, and potable water systems where CPVC is specified. Its Schedule 80 wall thickness provides added pressure rating compared to Schedule 40, making it appropriate for higher-demand service conditions. The fitting is compatible with CPVC pipe and fittings systems built to Schedule 80 dimensional standards, including those used in facilities handling acids, alcohols, alkalies, salt solutions, and halogens. It meets NSF and CSA International standards for potable water service.

Key Features

• CPVC Schedule 80 construction for elevated pressure and temperature service
• Spigot x female thread end configuration for inline size reduction from 1-1/2 inches to 1/2 inches
• Immune to electrochemical and galvanic corrosion, including damage from corrosive soil conditions in underground installations
• Smooth interior walls resist rust, pitting, scaling, and biological buildup, maintaining consistent flow over time
• Listed with NSF and CSA International for potable water service
• Resistant to a wide range of chemicals including most acids, alcohols, alkalies, salt solutions, and halogens

Compatibility

Designed for use with CPVC Schedule 80 pipe and fittings systems in industrial, chemical process, and potable water piping applications. Compatible with IPEX Corzan CPVC Schedule 80 pipe and valve systems manufactured to IPEX dimensional standards.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter familiar with CPVC solvent-cement joining procedures and applicable codes including the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off and depressurize the system completely before cutting or joining any fittings. Use only CPVC-rated solvent cement and primer for the spigot end; ensure female-threaded connections use compatible CPVC-rated thread sealant. Do not over-torque threaded connections, as CPVC fittings are not rated for the same torque values as metal fittings.
