Ipex 9839212 Cpvc Sch 80 Reducing Bushing 1-1/2 X 1-1/4 Mpt Fpt

Product Description

The IPEX 9839212 is a Schedule 80 CPVC flush-style reducing bushing with a male pipe thread (MPT) inlet and female pipe thread (FPT) outlet. It is designed to reduce pipe size within a CPVC piping system, transitioning from a 1-1/2 inch nominal connection down to a 1-1/4 inch nominal connection. Built from Xirtec CPVC material, this bushing carries a design stress rating of 2,000 psi at 73 degrees F and supports a maximum service temperature of 200 degrees F under pressure, with occasional exposure to boiling water up to 212 degrees F. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in hot and cold water distribution, industrial process, and chemical handling systems where corrosion resistance and thermal performance are required.

This reducing bushing is suited for residential and commercial plumbing and process piping applications where a threaded size reduction is needed within a CPVC Schedule 80 system. Its flush-style profile keeps the fitting compact within tight spaces. The Xirtec CPVC material resists rust, pitting, scaling, and corrosion on both interior and exterior surfaces, making it a reliable choice for aggressive fluid environments and systems requiring long service intervals.

Key Features

• Flush-style reducing bushing transitions 1-1/2 inch MPT to 1-1/4 inch FPT in a single fitting
• Schedule 80 CPVC construction rated to 2,000 psi design stress at 73 degrees F
• Maximum service temperature of 200 degrees F under pressure, with occasional boiling water exposure to 212 degrees F
• Xirtec CPVC will not rust, pit, scale, or corrode on interior or exterior surfaces
• Requires less than half the energy to produce compared to equivalent carbon steel or steel alloy materials

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitting for Schedule 80 CPVC threaded piping systems using 1-1/2 inch and 1-1/4 inch nominal pipe sizes. Intended for use within Xirtec CPVC piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the IPC. Depressurize and drain the system fully before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate CPVC-compatible thread sealant or tape to the male threads before assembly. Do not use petroleum-based compounds or solvents not rated for CPVC, as they can degrade the material.
