Nibco CE03200 Pvdf Reducer Bushing 2x1.5 in Sch 80

Product Description

The NIBCO CE03200 is a flush socket reducer bushing manufactured from PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride), designed for use in Schedule 80 plastic piping systems. It transitions from a 2-inch spigot end to a 1.5-inch socket end, allowing inline diameter reductions without additional fittings. PVDF offers strong resistance to a broad range of chemicals, making this bushing suitable for demanding industrial and process piping applications where standard PVC or CPVC materials would be insufficient. Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipe fitters working on chemical process, industrial fluid handling, or high-purity water systems.

This reducer bushing is used in Schedule 80 plastic piping installations where a reduction from 2-inch to 1.5-inch pipe is required. Typical applications include chemical processing lines, semiconductor manufacturing, laboratory plumbing, and industrial fluid transfer systems that handle aggressive media. The SPIG x S end connection configuration allows the bushing to seat directly into a Schedule 80 socket fitting on the smaller end while accepting a spigot connection on the larger end.

Key Features

• PVDF construction provides excellent chemical resistance and high-temperature performance
• Schedule 80 wall thickness for heavy-duty service pressure ratings
• Flush socket design for compact, inline diameter reduction
• SPIG x S end connections for direct integration into Schedule 80 socket fitting systems
• Sized at 2 x 1.5 inches for a single-step pipe reduction

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for Schedule 80 PVDF plastic piping systems requiring a 2-inch to 1.5-inch flush socket reducer bushing with SPIG x S end connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipe fitter familiar with thermoplastic solvent-cement or mechanical joining procedures for PVDF Schedule 80 systems. Depressurize and drain the piping system completely before removing or installing any fittings. Use only solvent cements and primers rated for PVDF material, as standard PVC cements are not compatible. Follow local plumbing codes and the manufacturer joining instructions for proper cure times before returning the system to service.
